What doth thou think of this? The guy is obviously driving around looking for trouble, plus he is a nutjob, but does he have a point?


*btw i don't live in the americas so i have no experience with any police. (i've only seen probably 1-2 policemen on the street in months)

Also, what do you think of the police (or any kind of law enforcement) in general? A necessary pain in the arse, or a bunch of dicks who think they can do whatever they want?

I'm aware these people do a tough job and should be commended on keeping us safe from lunatics.

I only watched the first one because I don't have twenty seven minutes to waste on the second right now.

I think the man was wrong not to let them search the car seeing as he didn't actually have anything there. If you ask me refusing to let police look in your car constitutes probable cause anyway.

The police were wrong too to not bring the dog back which could have averted everything.

I'd also like to point out that statistically less than one in twenty seven people make accurate witnesses at the best of times and stressful situations reduce that figure so I can't say I believe him entirely.

It would be great to have police like that in England.

In England, the police are pathetic. It's not entirely their fault though, It the laws of the EU. Police are not even allowed to carry around guns, they are not allowed to attack with any weapons most of the time. What is someone with a knife/gun was to challenge them?

If you remember back to the london bombings, when An undercover cop planted 5 bullets into that guys head, A law suit was brought up against the policeman, and he was suspended for a good while... for what, Doing his JOB!
The guy was an immigrant anyway. I'd say, If most of us were undercover policemen, and we saw someone running away from you once you've called them, with a massive coat and going onto a train, the day after the london bombing, we'd shoot them.

Police are given their powers for a reason, and although some may abuse them, their powers are for the better. People who didn't fear a crime they committed would not run away from them anyway, or hide objects from them.

**** off are english police pathetic, you've never been ****ing arrested you've only ever heard storys or seen things on tv.

You've been watching border control?

No seriously, I believe that the british police should step up their game. They should at least be allowed to carry firearms. They have hardly any power over anyone, and If they hurt anyone, most people would call up a law suit.

Have you seen the guys at the channel tunnel? They might as well be carrying bazookas. As for the rest of them, those extendable truncheons are a hell of a lot nastier than they look. They can make mush of human bones.

The channel tunnel, that is just customs, as are the great policemen in the airport. (has anyone noticed they have been on full alert?).

But what about the whole of england, truncheons, yes, but what are you going to do against a gun, whack the bullet away?

When I have been traveling to countries suck as portugal, who don't give a **** about the laws of the EU, the traffic wardens even have pistols. Which leads me to say, that it has been proven that their is a smaller crime rate in countries where regular policemen are allowed firearms, that countries that don't (England)

I'm not going to argue that with you. I've done it before and I think I may have lost a day of my life in total. What I will do is ask how many British police have been ever shot dead and how many Portugese. And how many Americans too because I am almost certain that figure will support my cause.

I don't know about portuguese. But these are the only figures I can find.

About 4,000 UK officers have died on duty since the first police was set up.

145 american officers died in Washington is 2007.

Don't know If that will help you much.

(and when have we argued before(and this is debating not arguing))

We've never argued, but I went on at Jeremy for months. Hang on, I'll find the link.

As for those figures, that's 145 people in a city of 6 million. Scaled up to the population of Britain that would be 1550 people per year. A lot more in the states then here. Obviously that's a slightly unfai comparisson for a number of reasons but it gives a general idea.

when is the average patrolling bobby ever going to get shot or encounter anyone with a weapon?

i'm not good at searching statistics but i bet its a hell of a low chance that someone in the u.k would be carrying a firearm, and a much lower chance that they would intend to use that for harms sake.

It is an unfair comparison, I believe, though most of that is due to the fact that americans are actually allowed guns.

I shall just settle on the fact that, If police were allowed firearms, but civilians were not, the police force would have a greater impact on Britain.

No, but here comes my main point: The deterrent factor.

I know my last example was farfetched, but I believe, that far less chavs (who are really cowards) would perform theft if they knew a police man was in the area, If he had a gun. You have to admit, If you see a policeman with a gun, you are quite unnerved sometimes.

So guns act as a deterrent, which would reduce crime, and the police force would be doing a better job.

...You are kidding me, I thought that had to be a rumor.

That has nothing to do with EU, that's Great Britain only. Policemen over here carry guns and policemen everywhere in the EU do. It's just your dumb country.

That happens everytime when a policeman shoots someone anyway. Virtually every ****ing time, it's a formality to inspect the circumstances, don't cry so much about it.

The guy was an immigrant anyway. I'd say, If most of us were undercover policemen, and we saw someone running away from you once you've called them, with a massive coat and going onto a train, the day after the london bombing, we'd shoot them.

That's exactely what policemen just can't do. That's not what they're educated to do. They are there to save lives, not to just shoot someone who looks suspicious, dick.
