The sport of policeman?

rightio

Unfortunately, power in the hands of the wrong person is extremely dangerous. Some Police Officers are civil and do not set out to hurt people...they just want to help stop crime and make it a safer world to live in. Unfortunately, there are the bad ones who do it because they can. They should not be allowed to get away with it. In Australia there was so much bad publicity and complaints put in about police brutality, that the Police Force now is under constant scrutiny....and the majority of complaints are taken seriously. The Police officers who beat people up should be reported and if more people did report this kind of behaviour then officers would be made to be accountable. What about the mothers of these young guys. If the mothers got together and each of them puts in a written complaint, then it would have to be taken seriously. If more people would complain about Police brutality it would get rid of the bullies in the Police Force. They only do it because they can get away with it. Just because they are Police Officers, they cannot be a law unto themselves and if they commit a crime.....and beating up a person for no cause is a crime, then the police officer/officers should be prosecuted in a court of law. They have to abide by all the laws that we have to abide by. But only when it is reported can anything ever be done. Like I said, they do it because they can and no-one is putting in written complaints to senior police officers. As far as I know all written complaints have to be taken seriously and the offending officer will be asked to explain.

if the assaults took place and no one was drunk or abusive then make a complaint to the duty inspector,also if you have the officers names or numbers then complain to the police complaints authority because the radio logs and incidence attendance logs
off the incidents can be
traced back by 999 logsthat is if you reported by phone, these officers are just as interested in taken the police bullies off the streets

You should probably read "The New Centurions" and take note of Kilvinski's Law.

Police have no obligation to fight fair. Police have no obligation to fight at all. If your friends resist arrest, the arresting Officer(s) have the right and obligation to use appropriate force to overcome that resistance. Resist arrest at your own peril.

THE BULB

5 young innocent men and 12 police officers? That's 17adult males involved in a fight and yet no witnesses. Obviously early in the evening as you were on your way to the pub, yet nobody saw a thing?
Yeh, right, I believe ya!

So police travel in gangs waiting for a group of lads to come along just so they can beat them up and risk losing their extremely generous pension lump sum do they?
Sounds a bit far fetched to me.
Sorry

I think if a few more were given a good slapping more often ,they would be less lippy,police dont put people in the back of the police van unless they are causing an offence,and if you are sworn at ,spit at ,and resist arrest ,what do you expect the policeman to do keep making polite requests,i would like to see where we would all be without the best policeforce in the world,,grow up and get real Â¡

In response to Hugo's well-worn trotted out answer above.

Lest we forget Pc Sharon Beschinisky's ultimate sacrifice,

nor Pc Geoff King still in hospital after being shot whilst on duty in Wolverhampton just weeks ago.

These people deserve our gratitude and respect.

Im sure that there are some bad police officers out there. However the majority are just doing their job and cleaning the streets of drunken yobs who can't take their beer. Not saying the police have a right to beat people up but im sure the odd dig here and there is what some idiots need. As for the comment about being bullied at school ? Grow up.

spag

OMG....was that you???!!! Dude, you should have complied with what I was telling you. Those bruises will heal up in no time but I hope they provide a reminder not to fight me when I'm making a lawful arrest. See you in court.

Maybe he fell over, and they were just trying to help him up...

You can make a complaint if you are a member of the public who:
Has been the victim of the misconduct by a person serving with the police. Misconduct could include a police officer or member of police staff being rude to you or using excessive force. It could also include unlawful arrest or an abuse of your rights. Was present when the alleged misconduct took place, or close enough to see or hear the misconduct, and as a result suffered loss, damage, distress or inconvenience, or was put in danger or at risk.
Is a friend or relative of the victim of the alleged misconduct, distressed by the effects of the incident on the victim.
Has witnessed the alleged misconduct.
Is acting on behalf of any of the above. Please note that if you would like someone to make a complaint on your behalf, you must give them your consent in writing unless they are from a body such as a Citizens Advice Bureau.

*Police code of conduct*
Honesty and integrity
It is of paramount importance that the public has faith in the honesty and integrity of police officers. Officers should therefore be open and truthful in their dealings; avoid being improperly beholden to any person or institution; and discharge their duties with integrity.
Fairness and impartiality
. Police officers have a particular responsibility to act with fairness and impartiality in all their dealings with the public and their colleagues.
Politeness and tolerance
. Officers should treat members of the public and colleagues with courtesy and respect, avoiding abusive or deriding attitudes or behaviour. .
Use of force and abuse of authority
. **Officers must never knowingly use more force than is reasonable, nor should they abuse their authority.**
Lawful orders
The police service is a disciplined body. Unless there is good and sufficient cause to do otherwise, officers must obey all lawful orders and abide by the provisions of Police Regulations. Officers should support their colleagues in the execution of their lawful duties, and oppose any improper behaviour, reporting it where appropriate.
General conduct
***Whether on or off duty, police officers should not behave in a way which is likely to bring discredit upon the police service.**

I have no way of knowing if this statement is true. If you feel the Police acted in an inappropriate manner,then you can make a complaint to the, Independant Police Complaints Commision.

uknowme

how many policeman are there? and how many people have been beaten up? what's the percentage? Now that you have made it clear you think all policeman do this and you see what small percentage of incidents say you're sorry loser

just about sums up the useless motherf*****s ,lucky it wasnt the met. police they shoot innocent people
and they wonder why people call them the filth !

in responce to Pep i speak from personal experience with the police and no i have never been convicted of any crime but been a victim of it many times and the police responce .....couldnt care less ! they spend more time respecting the rights of the criminals these days

Stripper

In my opinion I would like to see the Police do more bashing over the head all the stupid drunk fools on the streets at night, boys and girls, men and women.... in fact the Police don't abuse their authority enough in my opinion!

Give 'em back their power!

I don't know if it a sport or their just train to do it

ok, let me get this right as I type up the report. Some choir boys were out passing the good word when a horde of police officers, cranked up on a sugar high, descended on the hapless group meting out vicous beatings. All pleas for mercy were met with maniacal laughter.
That about right so far?
And then the police officers took away the beverages of those upstanding young lads that watched without calling for further assistance, as clearly the officers were out of control.
In the prison further beatings so severe that bones were broken, were handed out and no one noticed especially the x-ray technitions who obviously had to do xrays to confirm this beating. No one, including doctors asked what happened?
Ok, so we'll file this and get right to it. See where this is a little hard to swallow?

A True Gentleman

We live in Blair's Britain, this kind of thing is expected and it will only get worse. The police are out of control.

Andy

Some has had their stash confiscated in a stop and search i think...lol

The scum bags who where beat up in the van/cells were most likely asking for it (if it really happened) might have taught them some manners and respect.

Wise Kai

Where do you live man? ... Either in the shittest place of all, or,

you or your frineds were noisy, loud, abusive, harrassing people, groping, threatening, pushing, suspicious, nasty, .... (complete the list then choose three that apply). Believe me, if you tried behaving well, this wouldn't keep happening to you. Policemen never intervene unless they see reasons to.

i know, haven't they got real crimes to fight? every Friday or sat my drink gets taken off me! when I'm not causing any trouble!

sid

I think they are just compensating for being bullied at school. They aren't very brave are they? They only want to get involved if they have a massive superiority in numbers. Even when they are engaged in their favourite sport of punishing minor motoring offences, they need two of them holding hands.
