[kj] (OT) Police Brutality part 2

[Brendan Quinn]

The military can't recruit enough and have dropped their standards, so the
police get the dregs from the military.

Here in Los Angeles from what I've heard and read,  they tend to hire a lot
of former military, recon-, special forces types.  They're definitely the
first choice if the police recruiters can get 'em.

Spot on.let me see if I can Google the various psychological studies that
have been done into what kind of people are attracted to the police force.
As I said before, if you've had many dealings with them, you know all that
already. A good chunk of them are belligerent, anti-social under achievers
who just love the idea of dressing up in a uniform, someone else telling
them what to do, and being paid to throw their weight around.

you guys are missing the point ...the cops are tooled and psyched up for a
ruck ..they aren't gonna sort out the innocent from the guilty ..as far as
they are concerned you are there and they will use bully boy tactics to herd
the crowd ..That is thier idea of crowd control subjugate the meek and whack
anyone in thier way

Sometimes, the tactics used by the Police don't help. E.g. during the Poll
Tax demos they decided to box everyone into Trafalgar Square , with the use
of horses, with nowhere to move to. 1000s of people, who naturally panic in
such a situation. 
These so-called anarchists (oo strong semantic) are a distinct minority
(like you say).
Most demonstrators are just exercising their right of the right of free
speech and assembly, peaceably. They are not the trouble makers. The Police
need the brains to work out who is who.

No, I wouldn't compare the two, and no, they didn't kill anyone.

But having watched the chaos caused by a few 'wet lefties'- in London,
France and Germany- the hundreds of thousands of pounds of damage caused,
the thousands of police required to deal with those people and the colossal
amount of barricades and barriers needed to protect private property, I can
honestly say that we'd probably be a lot better off without them. Most
people there seemed to be able to gather and protest with burning things and
destroying anything they get their hands on, so I don't actually have much
sympathy for twats who can't.

 

Besides, without rioters, we wouldn't need riot police, and probably
wouldn't have as much police brutality. If any of those cops are found to be
guilty, I hope they throw the book at them. And I'll not shed many tears if
they do the same to anyone throwing bricks, trashing banks, looting shops or
setting fire to buildings. If that's how you choose to express your opinion,
you haven't got one worth hearing.

 

Rant over!

Gotta say mate, I don't think you can really compare a bunch of wet
'anarcho' lefties who put the odd window through with the likes of career
criminals/murderers & chavs that kick members of the public to death in the
street. Can you?

 

I didn't see any lefties kill anyone the other day, did you?

 

Not that I'm really defending the anarcho-weaners of course! It's all a
fucking pose that they'll inevitably grow out of before they start their
corporate career paths. Fuckin' Hippies!

... or the morons who think 'freedom of expression' entitles you to trash
banks and set fire to buildings...

Truth is & this is my opinion here (bear in mind I'd like to see Bliar
sniped asap), that it would be good if the pigs did that to the chavs that
kick people to death in the street & the career criminals that kill for
power, money & status.
