Marty whilst i do not share Peters general dislike (lets try and keep it polite) for the police you have got to understand that for many if not all the hillsborough familys and fans there that day the behaviour and actions of the police were shameful and did come across as uncaring and gutless for want of a better term.
Hillsborough is a damn deep wound that unless you were there or were directly affected by it you cannot begin to grasp a whole range of emotions and feelings and for those people a decent degree of latitude should be afforded rather then constant criticism and i am talking about what i have read on other forums not just this one.

Actually the were many police who helped carry the dead and injured and they can be seen in the footage and photographs on that day, it is the ones who stood doing nothing that gets the vitriol and anger and quite rightly so those so called men are the ones who get the brunt of my anger.
I doubt that a single one would ever admit to standing there watching people die when a simple act of compassion such as the opening of a gate could have saved people or prevented injury, as above I would not want those images haunting my psyche for the rest of my life.
