I donot condone dishonest police officers. We tend to expect that they MUST conduct themselves in a saintly manner ( off duty as well as when at work .) They are an easy target for venting one's spleen - and, in the case of dishonest officers, quite rightly so - but to be fair to the greater majority of them - they do a job that I would not want in these times of semi anarchy. ( hands up those of you that would take on their role .) I too agree that our law makers in Westminster appear to have got away with their fiddling. I was led to believe that over a third of the (dis)honourable members had been adjudged to have fiddled their expenses ( stolen our tax payers money ) - what's happened to them - nothing in the main - barring a couple of exceptions. Yet another example of double standards.
Police are just a reflection of wider society. Just the same as doctors, bus drivers, shop assistants and everyone else. There are some good, some bad. Aberdeen fans though, they're all a bunch of ****s.
I understand your outrage ER, but it's not really a case of "one rule for them and another for the rest of us". Most people can avoid disciplinary action (even for gross misconduct) by simply resigning.
