One tweet said: "How sad, no-one should die doing their job."
The HGV driver has been arrested on suspicion of causing death by dangerous driving.
Chief Constable of West Yorkshire Police Sir Norman Bettison said: "People sometimes overlook the real essence of policing."We exist to protect the public from threat and harm. Sometimes it is about crime, sometimes disorder.
"Today it was about the dangerous environment of the motorway.
Mark paid the ultimate sacrifice and we are all proud of him and are saddened by his loss.
Our thoughts and sympathy are with Mark's family. We shall try to be there for them as Mark was there for the public at large."
Isn`t it amazing what bollocks they tell us about these violent, self centred psychopaths.Look back to see how many of these c**ts have been hauled before the courts & disiplinary committeess this year! I`ve NEVER met a decent copper. The reason they join, is because they are nasty violent thugs who want to terrorise people through fear & intimidation. They justify their violence, with the excuse tthat they are only doing their jobs, or, are just following orders. This c**t probably thought he was invincible & walked in front of a lorry, trying to impress the lady. Now they will try to blame the death on a poor unfortunate lorry driver only doing his job. One less copper.

In fact on the last occasion, telling me that a crime hadn`t been committed when I`d been burguled. Before you go on, no I didn`t do anything for them to "dislike" me. That`s just the way the system works, do as they say and not as they do. At the end of the day, it`s a job they CHOOSE to do.
Just like these idiots who join the armed forces to kill people, oh sorry, to "protect" and serve democracy, shity, shit, blah,blah. They join up to kill or br killed. If they kill "the enemy" they¬re heros and if they get half their limbs blown off it`s the tax paying public that foots the bill for them being shit at their jobs. Before you start, yep, I`m a tax paying worker. Glad my rant got your blood flowing and the old grey matter working though.
See you on the streets.

I have some sympathy with ACAB's point of view...

And as someone else has pointed out, the difference between generalising about police, and generalising about groups like blacks, gays, gypsies, etc. is that you choose to be a cop, but you don't choose your ethnic or cultural background.
Maybe he was a nice guy and tried to do a good job, but he was still a cop, and even if they start out good they are going to get corrupted by the power.

Not all cops are bastards, I met (very few) good ones. Some are bastards, most just 'obey orders'.
ACAB? ASAP
