"not intrested wiz? ;-)"


Hahaha years ago yes definitely (dad was in the feds when i was born, now he;s a police volunteer in retirement years).

But not now, i love what i do and i dont think i would change that. Plus i dont want to cut my long hair LOL, work to hard to keep it lol

Pity ya dont get a bonus, that would be a great financial advantage. Hell, why not, recruiting agencies charge a fortune to companies.

Last time i saw him, be bailed me up in the ACT as i drove out of the petrol station, id forgotten to turn my lights on, i was wondering why i got so dark all of a sudden, lol, total brain fade.

yeah i know what your saying, i had long hair and a goatee at school.. loved it.

however its gone now due to work demands.. plus as an officer its not a safe thing, a crim will do anything to hurt you and i tell you what, once they got a hold of long hair, your a goner.

it annoys me seeing female officers at the gold coast with there hair down, the serg should really say something, because one day it may very well cost them there lives.

its cool your dad was a fed. there are alot of outstanding people in the force, a few not so outstanding. however people are generally like bulls seeing red, but with blue. people see a blue shirt and the dont see a man or woman or who they may be when they go home, they see a thing to be scared of and hate.

unfortunate when we live in a society like this, but as i say, ya get that.

lukey 088 : "I understand probably better than most.
I travel 100km to and from work every day (distance) on a single lane highway, and i am often in that situation and have had to exceed the speed limit to overtake 2 semi trailers.

however in saying that, i have been overtaken by 1diots going at least 150km who continue at that speed for as long as i can see them, on what really is a sh1t road.

There are incompetent drivers and there are drivers that think they are good but are the most incompetent on the road.

The moment somebody thinks there is nothing more they could learn on the road, quite possibly will be there last.

because a good driver will KNOW that every little contributing factor to an accident is always prevalent and no one day is the same on the road."

Luke, contrary to your obvious implications, I don`t think I know all there is to know on the road - I didn`t mention that I`ve done over a million Ks on bikes since 1972 & more than that driving cars & trucks & still learning. When were you born Luke, 1987 ??
Yet it`s not possible to discuss with you the fact that dangerous driving can be legal and that defensive driving is too often illegal.

Hello everyone,
Just letting you know, I have had some really bad brushes with the police my entire life. I have ssen them arrest my 11 year old brother for crime he did not commit! On the same occasion the police bashed my mother in front of us kids at the time we were aged 10,11 and i was 12!
They have attempted to arrest me but it was a case of mistaken id.
I have watched them arrest my father and take him away leaving us kids at home alone with no one to watch us! In that case when it went to court the charges were thrown out because the charge was resisting arrest! He was only resisting so that he could try and ring my Grandmother to come over and watch us kids, Yet that never happened!
So i hope you can understand why some people in this state really dislike the police! I cant even trust the polce to this day cause all i remember of the is carrying family members away from me!
Because of this! My little brother has in and out of jail his most of life since age 12! My little sister has been in and out of court since a yound age!
And me personally i have avoided police at all costs!
This is what they can do to you!

its up to you, im just trying to get a clearer picture, if an officer left kids bye them selves these dayz, there a$$ would be out of the job so very fast.

Gee virgin mary your family sure has come under Police attack when on every occassion you have ALL been innocent. Don't blame Police because your brother and sister are little S H I T S , we all have choices in life and they obviously choose to be grubs. Maybe if you weren't all trying to pass the buck and accept responsibility for your own actions, the heat may cool. Your innocent story is a little too hard to swallow.

Naturally ... anyone critical of police must be either a criminal or liar or both.

i did ask for some more information on the matters..

i find it hard to believe that all this happened for no reason. police dont have the time or man hours to harress people just for the sake of doing it

I agree. Where there is smoke there is almost always fire. Emucorp, I don't agree with the way some Police deal with some of the public either but experience shows my above mentioned comment is proven more often than not.

Re:Your experience with Queensland Polic ... Reply to this message
The arrests happen in QLD and NSW. The arrest relating to my lil brother was an apparent sexual assult on the lady who lived down stairs. My bother whom at the time of the so-called assult was watching a movie with my sister, my 2 cousins and a baby sitter at the exact time! The lady was also behind on rent and had just received notice to leave!My mother was having a smoke on the front verandah and flicked her smoke off the verandah.. it happened to land a few metres away from an officer so the arrested andd bashed her! We have photos and witness statements from the neighbours on the incident! The arresting officer was the one in logan city [qld] that killed himself a few months ago

Regarding my father, It happened in Nsw and my father was caught talking and drinking with known drug dealers. He went to school with these people! The police wanted to chat with him about this. Us kids were left alone whilst the took him to the station, They also made him walk home it took him 4 hours!

And im not shifting the blame, just stating facts

Im not shifting blame,
Im a 20 yr old female with no criminal history at all.
I am currently completing an apprenticeship, living with my partner of 3 years and Im very happy with what i have achieved with my life so far.
But i would not call the police if you payed me! not for anything. I honestly dislike police and will never call them! I would rather take things into my own hands!

"Where there is smoke there is almost always fire"

That's a convenient saying that is nice to use to justify unecessary cynicism. It can be equally applied to complainants or the police.

Sadly I see too many every dailyy infractions by police to be anything but cynical when I hear of people being mistreated by them, and I vividly recall a knee in the head when I bent to tie my shoelace when leaving the SCG after a public kickaround after a Swans game.

This of course means that I must be a criminal and/or liar.

"police dont have the time or man hours to harress people just for the sake of doing it"

They'd be able to fee up a lot of resources if they desisted from harassing people and would get a lot more respect if they weren't constantly seen to be breaking the law themselves.

Interesting too that such an avid supporter of the police has publicly admitted to driving from the age of six - obviously you gained an early exemption from the law due to your aspiration to be a police officer (just anticipating reality by a decade or two).

It is so typical of you people to tar us all with one brush. It is like when people pigeon hole all Aboriginals because of one bade dealing with them or Asians. Wake up people! You are going to get your good and bad in all professions and all humanity. You treat people as they treat you. I can bet you though Virginmary that if it were down to the wire, you would call Police because taking things into your own hands will be the commencement of your criminal record. Jesus Christ, no one wears a shining halo above their heads, not the Police and not you lot.

"no one wears a shining halo above their heads, not the Police and not you lot."

No they don't. So perhaps we might hear occasionally that criticism is warranted. To date I just see scepticism and accusations of lies/exaggeration by apologists. Hence my sarcastic addition of the "liar/criminal" tag.

I'm curious emucorp, if you live in NSW, why are you on the QLD thread and not on the NSW thread voicing your opinion re: NSW Police speeding through the school zones?

Given it's an open and public forum I'll leave it to Moderators to determine whether what I say is Offtopic.

Or are you just looking to play the man, not the ball?
