I don't take notice of the newspapers, I do read and see an element of truth otherwise it wouldn't have been published. I know how the system works, and I know how silly situations can be taken to an extreme level with the guilty being slapped on the wrists and the person who risks his life is punished. Doesn't matter what the policeman said, If someone is threatening or even carrying a knife they should be treated the way they treat other people with no contempt. That's not the case though, we can see this guy getting a slap on the wrists whilst the officer in question is punished, probably leading to his job being in jeopardy and name being dragged in the dirt.

With regards to this thread, like any other it will evolve into the many other systems that has gone to the dogs.

I say it as we live it and from experience. You can believe anything that sounds ridiculous because the way the police system works.

Here's how stupid the system is. A postman drops a letter and a neighbour picks it up and a week later bragging how the police went to the guys door and fined him 80 pounds for littering. So, reality is anything is possible. The way the UK is going I'd believe that the UK will become a 3rd world country within the next 20 years, debt growing, criminals abusing the human right act and immigration rising that the country will not sustain this abusement much longer.

It's why I say on a daily basis look at the bigger picture and look into all aspects of why something such as this can be believed and how the system allows the guilty to become untouchable and the innocent to be dragged down to the ground.

I think that will be my last comment in this thread because it looks like I actually care which I don't. Nothing we can do or change circumstances that seem to be paved out for people.
