and sometimes the best thing is to leave well alone, The Police force in my view isnt broke, its just bogged down with paper work and red tape.
If it was as easy for the coppers to go out an nick somoen for acting suspicious then maybe crime rates would fall, however liberals have been fighting, (and quite rightly in some cases) to extend rights to people to be able to walk the streets at whatever time and not be hassled by the police.

I know from experience that it happens, the amount of times I've been arrested under suspicion of something, to find out that the guy they were looking for is skinny with long red hair ( I check the mirror 19st shaved head that was dark brown) I guess its an easy mistake to make at night.
And its embarrassing to be arrested in front of people, especially when your innocent. I put up with questioning, but arresting is going too far in some cases.

As with all professions theres good cops and bad cops, the bad ones make the headlines, the good ones dont because it isnt sensational.
Making the head of police or whatever a political pawn is a really bad mistake in my oppinion, we choose him the gov controls him, we would have very little input, we couldnt get him to put things right, we couldnt get him to abolish paperwork and get more cops back on the beat.

In Thornaby we have a lot of community wardens, they do a decent job, but the crimes still there, its a step in the right direction, but they need more powers to deter the yobs etc.

Social crime I htink needs to be given a priority, the police should have guidlines at how long it should take them to answer a call, depending upon emergencies etc .

I'm blabbering, now and I wanted to green rep Graham for his last post but it wouldnt let me
