Assault in the watch-house

vg
not anything against you but listen to your self .
as soon as you become a cop every other person is breaking the law.
well go to hurtle ave in bonython and start aresting the lebo’s speeding and all the other car
.Thats right we have complained for 2 years with rego’s and still nothing is done .

what lie’s you have no rights
and are told to shut up .
i hope he get whats comming .
and VG just because your a cop doesent mean i hate you it is thing i have seen and experinced.

If Jim’s inference is that Police are somehow above the law, then that is more than effectively countered by the fact the individual in this case is appearing before a Court, ergo not beyond the reaches of the law.

You have plenty of rights when you get ‘locked up’. Unfortunately a lot of people’s stupidity in getting themselves there in the 1st place tends to cloud their judgement when they do.

is it still the fault of the officers involved if no training is supplied in order to deal with situations that are potentially volatile – people self harming themselves etc ?.

I dunno what happened – but lets not jump to conclusions. for all we know this lady may have been boinging her head off the wall at great speed – how do you deal with someone who is manic and not caring for their or anyone elses welfare.

At least if this happened in hospital – the wardsmen would restrain the individual while a very powerful sedative is administered for their own protection.

After a 2 minute translation ‘what the’ ?!? I think Jim wants to say that:

ACT Police are above the law, and have on numerous occasions broken the law (fractured sentence), and get away with whatever they want.

Care to justify that with some facts for us Jim ?

I understand that since basic literacy is beyond you, your ability to find this website again is also questionable.

Thankfully illiteracy is not a crime

ACT COP ARE ABOVE THE LAW AND ARE SO Much law breaker and get away with what ever the wont.

I have been locked up for not paying a fine and i did they made a mistake and when i was in there i seen
the way people get treated and dog in a kenal are treated better.
you have no rights when you are locked you.
I hope the kick the cops ass and lock him up

A friend and I were OC sprayed in the back of a paddy-wagon, they had locked the door and silly me had kicked the wall and mouthed off at them, so they pulled over a little while down the road and opened the door long enough to give us a decent shower with the stronger of their sprays, then slammed it shut and continued the trip to the Watch-house. They claim we were both kicking the walls of the vehicle and they were worried we would damage it or possibly cause injury to ourselves……..

But there is a line that shouldn’t be crossed.
If we start accepting this behaviour from people in authority its not sending a good message.
Just because a cop is pissed off cos they’ve had a shit night doesn’t give them the right to get rough with people.
Its these police (the ones exploiting their power) that are giving other police a bad name.
