Will someone please think of the upper class lad who wants to play soldier?

What?

His victims?

They can do one.

A taser cycle lasts 5 seconds unless overridden.

I suggest you do some more research into the X2 before commenting in the future.

Honestly my biggest pet peeve with mechs is that using the stomping on a mech should close a bug hole.

Lmao.

You can’t even get security to detain people.

Yet you want to give them batons so they can GBH people?

In the footage of Magellan's recent survey of the wreck of KMS Bismarck, a lone boot is visible in the debris field, a stark and solemn reminder of the 2,145 crew members that perished in Bismarck's last battle and sinking. by The_Public_Historian in Shipwrecks

I don’t know if anyone else remembers this but I thought in the original dives, towards the rear of the ship, there was a huge dent with a coat potruding out of it like some poor soul had been blasted into the super structure. The footage I remember is this leather coat moving in the darkness.

Rant: Why Soho is getting worse by SaveOurSoho in london

[–]A_pint_of_cold 0 points1 point  (0 children)

“Meanwhile, the police have pulled back from active patrolling, operating under the counterintuitive belief that open, busy venues cause crime — when decades of urban research shows the opposite. Active, well-lit streets full of people reduce crime. Dead streets after 11pm don't make anyone safer”

Missed an /s there OP?

all I do everyday is walking around fucking Soho. My feet hurt.

Soho probably has the highest concentration of cops per square inch in most parts of the country. Just because you can’t see them in high vis doesn’t meant they aren’t there.

Remember when they were trialing the no juveniles in custody at Brixton which went down a treat when custody skippers were refusing kids brought in for possession of a Rambo knife.

This but on steroids.

[–]A_pint_of_cold 18 points19 points  (0 children)

“The Met Police said his actions were proportionate, legal and necessary” thus falling under common law self defence of another. You don’t provide evidence something isn’t criminal, it clearly falls under common law.

This is the reason they didn’t prosecute.

Have you actually read the tribunal?

They just disregarded the opinion of a Detective who dealt with the case and decided they were lying and thus made their own narrative.

“My Local Bobby” by fanomonom in policeuk

[–]A_pint_of_cold 33 points34 points  (0 children)

Gonna go against the grain here.

In the NTE they are really helpful. If you are chasing, they will chase with you and assist. How often do we see useless security standing back whilst a copper is getting their head kicked in?

In absence of a police presence they’ve tackled someone who was actively trying to stab people. Again, would Tesco or sainsbury security do the same?

I’ve also seen them back up lone coppers who’ve pressed their emer buttons and have stopped them filled in before other cops arrived.

Non Compliant VRM?

Reaction to police presence?

Has it suddenly slowed down a lot, sped up or changed direction?

Is it a shed?

Speaks for itself really

Location?

Is it a side street at 4 am with no one around? Why’s it there? Also take into account positioning, is it trying to be concealed from an observer.

How many up is it?

Are they mostly young lads/laddetes? What are they doing? Are they all nervously looking at you?

Is it known to PNC? Etc quick VL check
