I can't tell you why philperth...other than the fact that those bastards had run over two women already seriously injuring one...I suppose he was just a little bit annoyed with him.
You know what, "good on him! He wanted it, HE GOT IT!"
I am fed up to the back teeth with society handling criminals with kid gloves. This is why crime is out of control...exactly why!
And if you had your way we would go back to the good old days where we had police deaths in custody with no questions and the cat of nine tails to keep them in place. The police have to remember that they are here buy the will of the community to up hold the law they are given. They are not the law and they must live by those laws just the same as the rest.
The police have many major issues to overcome like uncontrolled population growth with no consideration given to services, infrastructure and planning. This means they could be called to a house invasion only to find that because they are under staffed they are coming cross town to get there, the roads are inadequate to cope with the traffic so they are slow getting there and on arrival there is a riot going on up the street because some 16 year old's party got out of hand. Yes i get it but i also get that the police have no respect in the community because of years of over zealous treatment of minority groups, bashings, corruption and an attitude that they are the law. Over extending themselves in areas that the community don't want, being revenue raisers for the state coffers. Centralised district policing has been a complete failure and will continue to be because the community always wants something for nothing and the old police club will not change.
I've a good reason for disliking police. Here is the story.
My daughter, moving alone into a house after a marital problem, was a victim of a break-in.
She called the police. Two officers turned up. The senior of the two ordered the second to leave the premises. After a few questions to my daughter he said, "Show me your bedroom".
She led him down the hall to the bedroom but half way turned around, saying, "They didn't take anything from the bedroom. . ."
only to find herself trapped by his arms resting each side of her on the hall wall.
She ducked under one arm, took off, ran down the street and dived into someone's shrubbery.
The cop called out to her but she remained quiet until their car drove away.
She reported the matter.
As the second cop backed the word of his superior, my daughter was made out to be a liar.
She hasn't forgiven the police since, hates and distrusts them but I know that not all are bast*rds - most do their job courageously and have to swallow a lot of sh*t.
