The behaviour of UK police officers.

Mountain rescue, the RNLI, the Coastguard etc are organisations which spend much of their time rescuing idiots from themselves. Imagine the RNLI turned out and then made no effort to save someone drowning

"Ha, ha, ha! You brought an outboard motor insufficient to over come the spring tide! Sucker!"

Well, we'll find out next time someone paddles out of their depth on a lilo and swallows a golf ball-sized package of drugs when the RNLI turn up to help them.

The officer who tazed the elderly man has been cleared of misconduct

https://metro.co.uk/2018/09/05/poli...ring-taser-at-race-relations-adviser-7915811/

"Peter Cadman, independent chairman of the misconduct panel....He said: ‘We do not find that the actual use of the Taser was unreasonable in the circumstances as PC Boddie believed them to be on January 14.
‘We do not find that the absence of a warning was unreasonable. We do not find it unreasonable for PC Boddie to have discharged her Taser in the way that she did, even thought one of the barbs struck Mr Adunbi in the face.
‘The panel therefore find none of the breaches as alleged have been proved.’"

That sets the level of threat to a police officer for them to use a tazer as very low indeed and the no warning is ridiculous.

I think she is just not physically and mentally up to the job and dealign with belligerent people. She was clearly considered to be promotion material, as she has sergeants stripes on in the video, but is referred to as a PC. I hope she is not going to be promoted and indeed I hope she is sacked.

She used excessive force on an elderly man and it is a disgrace she was found not guilty.

Unfortunately, there's a ton of people who are in positions that they really, really, are not qualified to be in, IMO. I work with a few of them.

As with most areas of employment, and walks of life in general, you get the good, the bad, and the ugly...and the incompetent.

Yet the Sun newspaper describes it as a "brilliant moment"

The Sun is a paper I wouldn't even wipe my arse with.

 

[Nessie]

The Sun newspaper editorial would soon change their mind of a journalist was tazered for being a bit obstreperous with the police.

That someone is posting about occupied territory on what used to be sovereign UK soil is evidence that the police of the UK have handed over their authority of a foreign people. The cowardice demonstrated by UK police officers is beyond reckoning. Their cowardice borders complicity in some horrific crimes due to their knowledge of the crimes but refusal to take action.

I hate calling these people police officers because obviously they are not. They are cowards at best. Traitors working for foreign people is likely more accurate.

To me, a police officer is someone who has taken an oath to protect people in their community. If they'd rather run with their between their legs than engage in a confrontation, then a vacuum will emerge. Nature abhors a vacuum. That vacuum will quickly be filled. In many cases in the UK, that vacuum has been filled.

Even UK Police Officers admit as much:

"A Lancashire Police officer, who wished to remain anonymous, told MailOnline: 'There are Muslim areas of Preston that, if we wish to patrol, we have to contact local Muslim community leaders to get their permission'. "

https://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/ar...Muslim-areas-officers-claim-tycoon-RIGHT.html

As for the "at least they don't shoot people!" crowd well, their cowardice is causing deaths, and countless other horrific crimes.

"Murders and rapes going unreported in no-go zones for police as minority communities launch own justice systems"

https://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/ar...ority-communities-launch-justice-systems.html

"The chief inspector of constabulary, Tom Winsor, said some ethnic minority communities are turning their backs on police and rarely, if ever, call them to deal with crimes as serious as murder and sexual assaults against children, instead dealing with them in their own way."

https://www.theguardian.com/uk-news/2014/jan/18/communities-law-police-chief-winsor

'Islamic extremists have created "no-go" areas across Britain where it is too dangerous for non-Muslims to enter, one of the Church of England's most senior bishops warns today.'

https://www.telegraph.co.uk/news/uknews/1574694/Bishop-warns-of-no-go-zones-for-non-Muslims.html

Video footage of UK police running away from Muslims like a bunch of cowards.

It has been made abundantly clear by many that the UK is up for grabs. The police have no duty to protect its citizenry. They are not expected to take risks. They make good people feel hopeless. They terrorize their native population with frivolous "hate speech" laws that only apply to them while letting rapists run free. They embolden bad people by knowing the police have no real authority.


I'd rather have my police not create power vacuums by being complete cowards.

'More than half of Brits believe the police have lost control of the streets'

People feel that criminals now have no fear of getting caught and punished for their crimes.

With London’s crime skyrocketing the poll also revealed that a quarter of the population feel unsafe at night where they live.

'London murders: Met police seen as losing control, warns ex-officer'

A former senior police officer has warned that Scotland Yard appears to have lost control of London’s streets and has accused the Metropolitan police leadership of a “deafening” silence as the capital’s murder toll for the year moved past 50.

‘The streets are lost' Ex-cop warns London knife and gun crime will ‘inevitably get WORSE'

The troubling statistics show “the streets have been lost” to criminals, who are carrying knives and firearms with impunity, the former Scotland Yard detective said.

“As far as the bad guys are concerned, the streets are now theirs,” he told Daily Star Online.

https://www.dailystar.co.uk/news/la...-violence-knife-gun-met-police-warning-attack

What incompetence, cowardice.

'Mick Neville, a retired Scotland Yard detective chief inspector, said yesterday: “The police are very much in danger of losing control of the streets.

“For the last 10-15 years, senior police officers have become more concerned with political correctness and the ‘welfare’ of criminals, rather than victims of crime.

“This has been worsened by politicians interfering and supporting such measures.

“So we have stop and search reduced as it ‘upsets’ ethnic minorities, and criminals whizzing around on mopeds without fear of being chased, as officers have been forbidden from chasing them.”'

Which has far more to do with media scaremongering than Muslims.

'London murders: Met police seen as losing control, warns ex-officer'

Number of homicides in London since 1990:



So rising, but still lower than most of 1990 (at least) through to 2008, despite a growing population. Not exactly Götterdämmerung.

Nothing to do with massive cuts to police budgets and personnel, then?

"Cuts in police budgets of hundreds of millions of pounds mean there are now 121,929 officers in England and Wales – nearly 22,000 fewer than eight years ago, say rank-and-file leaders."

So nothing really to do with "cowardice," Muslims, or whatever your bête de jour is.

The Guardian disagrees with you.

"Ethnicity did play a part in the Rotherham abuse, not because this particular pattern of abuse is restricted to a particular group (the behaviour is typical of many gangs) but because many of those who might have taken action feared the wider, societal, consequences if they did."

https://www.theguardian.com/commentisfree/2014/aug/27/guardian-view-rotherham-child-abuse-scandal

So they'd rather let girls be raped than be called a racist. That is cowardice personified.

The video evidence certainly contradicts your assessment.

More British Police Officers running away with their tails between their legs.

Guardian reporter Lisa O’Carroll reported live from the scene of the attack as it occurred Saturday night. Witnesses told her that they had seen police fleeing the scene of the attack.

"Witnesses said they saw two men stabbing people outside the well-known Roast restaurant in Borough market. A chef from the nearby Fish restaurant said: “I saw two guys with big knives downstairs outside Roast. They were stabbing people. The police were running away, they were community police. They were normal officers, they were running away," O'Carroll wrote.

More video footage depicting British Police officers running away from confrontation. This is a clear demonstration of who owns the streets of the United Kingdom. It sure ain't the police

Perhaps instead of quote mining god knows what, you could pop over and see for yourself.?

I can assure you that we are not huddled under our beds out of fear....

And Community police are not 'normal officers'.

"Depending on where you work, you could:

deal with minor offences
offer early intervention to deter people from committing offences
provide support for front-line policing
conduct house-to-house enquiries
guard crime scenes
provide crime prevention advice
You would be a critical part of the force
Although PCSOs do not have the same powers as regular police officers, they still carry a lot of responsibility, and are a critical part of the police service."

Although, TBH, I'm not sure what your aim here is.

Love and support for us poor, under siege Brits?
Sadness for poor people who were abused?
Hatred for cops?
Bloody Mussie kiddy fiddlers?

I have my suspicions...
