How "smart" do you have to be to think this was a local constabulary vehicle... in Surrey! Then get's his house raided (without him knowing) and his medication is left out for his dog to chew on which almost kills it. http://www.getsurrey.co.uk/news/local-n ... ar-6463489 |

Bit overkill on the attendance eh! Considering he registered the car and replica show gear with the force, so they knew of it (smart move). He replied on the article, near the bottom "They were in a locked display box in the boot with the deactivation certificates with them It is always in the car locked The police were In the wrong They also never said once about yellow lines". Glad to see that every crime has been solved and that they were available to attend to a non criminal offence with no threat in such numbers. I'm all in support of police doing their job - serve, protect etc. Just the abuse and misuse of power like this is unfortunately what gives a bad name to them. What was wrong with just having a regular conversation with the guy and if there was any doubt, why not give the governor of the local station a call and say look, he's claiming we already know about this, is it true?. That's all it would've taken. When i was in Guildford once someone ran into the back of me at the lights, reversed and drove off. Lights turned green and just as i went a police car was there so quickly pulled over to them and said about the hit and run and they just looked at me with a kind of 'oh well' look and said he's gone now so what can we do about it. There were 3 of us in the car so we had witnesses but they made it out like i was causing a fuss. Good to know though that had i have been in an NY police car, the police would have flocked over

They`re not called the filth for nothing. And before anyone says that that`s a bit much I have been f**ked over big style by todays box ticking, revenue collecting version of what was a respectable organisation. |

Ouch! And hmm "On 15 March 2011, Emmanuel (Smiley) died, from a self-inflicted stab wound, while the police were searching his house in Hillbury Road". Thought i recognised the area with the Jag... Where it turns left, onto the side road and into the housing estate... i used to work opposite that road. It's an... interesting area. If you ever need late night entertainment should we say, or herbal remedies, that area is a good place to start! |

I've got a friend who just left the police after 17 years, most of that in traffic. He's a good fair bloke who said it just isn't possible now to do the job he signed up for. I feel sorry for the other good coppers with the right intentions who are still trying to do a proper job amidst red tape and targets. |

BigKieko obviously has had nore recent bad one's than good. I know a few coppers so it's down to the individual in reality. I've had very varied ones, mostly positive - ranging from being pulled pulled for dodgy spaced number plates and bald tyres (they were track days specials but were right on the limit  ) and ended up talking cars, circuits and V8's for over half an hour with the guy, who then let me off with a warning.. to being stopped and booked for something I genuinely didn't do when I was younger, and the 2 officers pretty much lied when in court, luckily not guilty verdict and no problems. It paints a bad picture if you view all police from a negative experience.

It's definitely a mixed bag based on experience. I'm sure that for every 'bad' officer there are 9 good ones to make up for it. Unfortunately we tend to hear of the bad incidents more than we do about the situations that are dealt with well. I've got a friend in the Met and another friend who was in the local force. The latter left after a few years because of the burden of paperwork and procedure. He found himself dealing with situations where he was dealing with petty crimes that in enquiries were twisted into him being abusive, racist etc. Even though he had other colleagues with him and he genuinely was dealing with the situation as he should have, he got tired of it as he knew it wasn't going to change and the reason he was there in the first place was to try and make a positive difference but instead was being punished for it half the time. Then on the other hand, my friend who lives in NY was in slow moving traffic going through a big intersection about a month ago. The car 2 vehicles ahead could have kept going to clear the intersection but decided to stop short. The traffic officer decided to come over to her (why not the car in front that was creating the blockage) and started writing out a ticket for $120 for blocking the intersection. She was like hey, i cannot move because the cars in front stopped, get them to move and we'll clear the intersection, or ticket them, i'm literally stuck here. He completely ignored her and kept writing out the ticket. She said if she would have got out to challenge him then he would have pulled a gun as she would be 'threatening' him. He didn't write a ticket for the cars in front that were in the same situation, just her. I think it's those incidents that give the overall bad impression. There are some 'good officer' vids on youtube where they have been genuine and conversational, worked out an issue etc which i think is what most people expect to happen when a situation arises. I guess it's that fear at the end of it, no matter how well or logically you can argue or explain something, the guy (or gal) with the uniform can be easily seen as a threat as if they think they are right, the cuffs are out and if you disagree, there's a whole load of more uniforms that can make you comply (and depending which country you reside, the guns can come out too). Then the scary stories start where human rights are taken away / abused etc and at that point you are helpless because if you fight back, well, it becomes a numbers game and there's only one of you. I think that's why people have the overall negative impression, you see things like the below story where a load of officers turn up to a non event, lock someone up, raid their house etc, when the whole time they have been a law abiding citizen. It's tough for officers at the same time, because they don't know what they're up against - as that website shows you never know what the person to deal with has on them / or is capable of. It's probably going to be a problem that is never going to be solved and it's a shame because there are people out there who genuinely are in it for the right reasons and to do the right things, but are tarred with the same brush. |
