I agree with Chief...the Police need to do more themselves. Everything is getting put onto Joe Publics consciousness...it's pathetic.
The coppers get paid for this. In the immortal words of Airplane, "they knew the risks. I say let'em crash"
Maybe, yes. No one on here has said that though? It's not society's job to protect the police, it's the government's job to ensure they have the tools to carry out their role. They should be armed in major cities, I'm fully in support of that. The police's support weapon isn't ever going to be me if I happen to be walking past though, sorry. The police do **** all to eradicate local petty crime against the general public and I will do **** all to put my life on the line in return. Not the police officers fault, I'm fully aware of that, but that's how things currently are.
That’s an excellent non-violent solution. Bore them into submission recounting stories of your youth.
You see how the Cops were just trying to dodge him...would Joe Public be expected to do the same? I saw many openings for a sweet uppercut on the guy...but would I be ok to risk smashing his jaw in or would I be in trouble myself? The big man can't punch for ****
It’s not cut and dry. I wouldn’t be bothered if a nobhead Cop was getting leathered by somebody who’d had enough of his ****, that’s for sure. One time I helped somebody who was getting filled in he ran off and left me scrapping with the two lads who jumped him.
He wasn't punching he was swinging a machete after trying to blow up gas bottles in his car and killing an old man as well as chopping away at other random people.
This is the incident Pixy is talking about , unfortunately the people attacking the police after a routine traffic stop are black so it's not their fault. There aren't enough Youth clubs or the police are underfunded or something.
