I'm from a generation that was brought up to respect the police (in England), but over the years that respect has evaporated. In dealings with the police over the years. I discovered them to be incompetent, then uncaring and finally one evening I witnessed police attacking a harmless drunk walking peacefully home. He was swaying around a bit but a police car pulled up along side him and they sprayed pepper spray or something in his face, knocked to the ground and kicked him repeatedly. He offered no resistance just lay there begging them to stop and that he could not see. Finally he was handcuffed and taken away in a police van. I subsequently learned he was given a trumped up charge for resisting arrest and that it was a deliberate revenge attack by the police - they knew him and were out to get him, simple as that.
really? in england? here? wow... screwed up justice system huh? aint thar somebody who could sue the police force for that kind of thing? for they are merely law enforcers are they not? they are not the law in itself.
