According the Radio 4, and other news sources, a UK Police commander has been using a bulletin board/discussion forum to discuss his opinions on drugs and policing.
The commander, using the login Barry - The Commander, has been posting on the www.urban75.com forums...
Regardless of whether you agree with his opinions, do you think this is a good move, or a mistake?

Personally I have respect for the guy. Being willing to have a discussion about a subject when you are in his position is a brave thing to do. He is going to be vilified in the nest few days - look out for the Police Federation Spokesman Glen Smythe (sp?), oily little shit suggested that Commander Paddick is 'tired' and obviously needs 'a rest'.
If only other would take such an approach. problem is they would probably find out how much they are out of touch...
Youre right about him being villified..Hes gonna be strung up.
Can't find the paper at the mo, otherwise i'd write down some of the stuff that was said. Maybe tomorrow...

Seemed like a reasonable bloke to me.
Look at one thread on U75 at the moment people there are saying that harry roberts who shot and murdered 3 policemen in cold blood is a good guy !!!! that's really going to endear the police to U75.
