i don't think im above the law, and you're probably getting that from my attitude towards the police throughout the thread, i have many reasons for absolutely despising them - but wont get into that
i don't care about what ex policemen you've talked to or what children of yours have records, its completly irrelevant in this case
so an unlawful search on untrue grounds means you should somehow be responsible for you own (lack of) actions?
The evidence of your own eyes & what coppers have told you --forms your opinion.
Your kid being a criminal (as you described z) bears no relevance.
You're right we do. In my part of the world, thanks to anti-terror legislation, the police don't need a reason to stop and search. Here there is no such thing as unlwaful searches anymore.
You think you have a problem?
Fuck dude, if you are Catholic in the North then I know that you have many reasons to hate the police. But just because they were scum in the past, just because there are still scum elements there does not automatically mean that you were unlawfully searched.
Accept the punishment - which effectively amounts to a slapped wrist (which incidentally was the least of what you got in the 70s/80s. Literally) - and get on with your life.
Again with the assumption that it was unlawful... it's the whole basis of your defence yet you have nothing other than an opinion.
Better that than a prejudice. Wouldn't you say.
Yours is...?
ive no problem accepting the punishment (not like i have an option), still doesnt mean that it wasnt harsh.. they would have confiscated the drugs and let the vast majority of people walk on .. like ive said a few times, turloughs example of drinking in the street says it all
no point in going round and round, i know they had absolutely no suspicion we were carrying a knife, it done purely to give them an excuse to hassle us.. fair enough i don't really expect you to take my word for it, but if you had have been there and seen they way they acted and their manner in general it would be a different matter ..
What sticks with me though is the ten+ forms which we had to complete while he was fingerprinted, DNA swabbed etc - and the grumbles frmo the copper who didn;t want to do any of it.
No, not know, Think.
well ive seen it happen millions of times before, seen cases of both nice police and absolute bastard police .. the way the act, treat you, talk to you.. and i can assure you these ones fell under the 'bastard' category
sorry, but im going to trust my hard earned judgement over what you think :thumb:
Don't even talk to me about the 70's and 80's. My family and community went through far worse than z or any one of you cunts have so shut your face.
Go back to your middle England suburbia.
Aye there is, and you wouldn't know fuck all about it.
No you wouldn't.
now lets get this party started
Indeed they did. And that's relevant to this discussion how?
aka a mining village hardly suburbia and you need to get a map if you thin kI'm in middle Engalnd.
And that attitude, dear boy, is why you will never get on in life. Good luck. Tell me, what is the paramilitary approach to drug users these days?
Ah, clairvoyance. Tell me, can you read palms too?
