The Police Answer to No-One

Anthony Rodgers | 04.02.2007 13:52 | Sheffield

The Police have far too much power. They Answer to No-One.

The local Police have now been given far too much power. They target young and vulnerable people on our Estates. They do this to prove they have the power and as a detterent. It is a fact. They will target the families of anyone that dare to criticize them or to report them. I myself have been a well known critic of the Police for a long time. I have also praised them where this has been appropriate. ( Not very Often ). Now my family especially my Nephew who lives with me is a target. He has no criminal record. But he has been harrassed and assualted by the Police on more than one occasion. I have been told shut my mouth or else. I have been threatened. Abusive phone calls. False rumours spread by certain Police Officers. Yet I am not afraid of them, We must be brave enough to stand up and fight this cancer within our society

The police never targeted the young vulnerable person who did a shit in my lift last Wednesday.

What a load of rubbish.

I'm sure there are the occaisional 'bad apples' but I believe most of what you say above is complete rubbish. The Police have got better things to do than to pick on 'young and vulnerable' people purely because they are 'young and vulnerable'. Experience shows that they are usually 'young and gobby' and are causing a nuisance to everyone else in the area who doesn't want to hear them or be effected by them in any way (Technically Article 8 ECHR). The Police have the power to deal with any kind of nuisance behaviiour and it should be exercised more, not just retrospectively. Maybe then they might have stopped the kid from ever crapping in the lift.
