imi Posted January 11, 2006 Author Share Posted January 11, 2006 There was a huuuuuge thread about this when it first happened, bottom line as far as I'm concerned is that he was a properly trained policeman who does more good for society in one day than I'll ever do - the other guy is a bmw driver on a mobile phone. Not really comparable. HOWEVER...according to the BBC video in the article, the police man clearly says that he was a danger not just to himself but to other drivers on the road as they are not used to seeing a speeding bullet around them.... So how come the police officer that was speeding in an unmarked car got away with it.....seems like double standards to me..... Do we live in a police state?

Class One Posted January 11, 2006 Share Posted January 11, 2006 become a copper and you can break the law till your hearts content (to a certain degree) there is a good saying where am from you might know it "you have to bent to be a copper" and before i get corrected, if a copper pulls over lets say his father or best friend in the world doing double in a 30 then to right he will only get a warning = bent You're talking out of your arse.

tbourner Posted January 11, 2006 Share Posted January 11, 2006 You're talking out of your arse. Well put. I completely agree. However they do take sarcasm lessons as part of the course! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jamesmark Posted January 11, 2006 Share Posted January 11, 2006 as i said in the other post not all are like that, i dont belive in tarnishing everyone with the same brush but coppers with an attitude just dont work the same as people that get stopped with an attitude dont work after all they broke the law so they deserve what they got Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
