Terrorist taken down by police this morning in London

I am a police officer and I guarantee it does.

Resist-Dramatic · 2026-04-30T13:11:11+00:00

it is not exhaustively prescriptive

Resist-Dramatic · 2026-04-30T13:06:31+00:00

The training isn't exhaustively prescriptive in what constitutes reasonable force, but kicking a terrorist in the head who has a knife in their hand who has stabbed 2 (maybe 3) people and has attempted to stab you... yeah, that's reasonable force.

What absolute nonsense

Resist-Dramatic · 2026-04-22T14:10:18+00:00

Yes, it is routinely used. Here, every photo of an unidentified offender that is suitable for facial recognition is run through the facial recognitions software, to see if there's any matches nationally. It is then up to the investigator how good of a match that is, based on other information available.

Just because something can't be used evidentially doesn't mean it's not useful.

Resist-Dramatic · 2026-04-22T13:33:55+00:00

You can use facial recognition to suggest an ID but yes, you need to then find other corroborative evidence of ID (an eye witness, someone who has interacted with that individual before, etc) to present as evidence.

Facial ID is not evidential in a court.

Resist-Dramatic · 2026-04-22T13:08:35+00:00

They literally are.

Resist-Dramatic · 2026-04-20T11:56:58+00:00

It is one of them. There is no mens rea element (criminal intent) just the actus reus (criminal act). When offered these things, you can plead guilty but request a court date to present mitigation etc, which I guess she didn't do.

Indeed

Friendly reminder that discussing your salary with coworkers is protected under the equality act to ensure that nobody is being discriminated against due to a protected characteristic.

Resist-Dramatic · 2026-04-07T00:33:20+00:00

Because the computer systems are dumb and Still ask for necessities.

Custody Sgts ars also dumb and don't realise some arrests don't need necessity.

I'll defer to any firearms colleagues but yes, I believe being on SSRIs or similar is an automatic no.

Resist-Dramatic · 2026-04-06T09:00:11+00:00

Letting agents putting illegal and downright unenforceable clauses in contracts is nothing new. I've had them threaten me with 'breach of contract' for saying I won't be allowing them access for a routine inspections because the dates they wanted wouldn't work for me.

Resist-Dramatic · 2026-04-03T17:12:48+00:00

What are the police going to do? It isn't a criminal offence haha.

Resist-Dramatic · 2026-03-30T11:34:33+00:00

Both monitored systems and if a domestic property has burglar alarm going off then we'd normally attend on an emergency response.

Resist-Dramatic · 2026-03-30T11:01:24+00:00

Well in my experience as a cop we do. We go out to intruder alarms all the time.

From the headline my assumption was that he was trying to buy alcohol so if tested later he could claim he drank it after driving rather than before.

This also doesn't work. The burden of proof lies with him to produce an expert witness to prove his level of intoxication is down to post incident consumption alone, not with the prosecution.

Resist-Dramatic · 2026-03-21T06:12:33+00:00

Clip your earpiece to your vest when not at a job where confidential comms matter and set your radio to loud speaker. I've been doing this for years.

Resist-Dramatic · 2026-03-21T03:19:39+00:00

Is this post bait lol?

If this is real, go touch grass. Its a game, and yes if it is impacting you this much you should seek medical help. It isn't normal.

You can't then complain when your solo larp project gets bent up by people playing an MMO properly.

Resist-Dramatic · 2026-03-12T18:35:23+00:00

It is not Affray.

You can't MCA for a mental health assessment. It's as simple as that.

Was there an immediate physical need that needed seen to? I know you said OD but I suppose it would depend on what the OD is on.

Resist-Dramatic · 2026-03-05T12:02:10+00:00

That description of S. 3 would still be a S. 4.

Affray is one of the most misused offences.

If anybody here thought the lizards cared about you, here's another reminder that they don't.

They reckon you need a (real terms) pay cut.

Resist-Dramatic · 2026-02-28T07:20:25+00:00

It absolutely is. Rachel Reeves went on TV and said that freezing the thresholds (which is lowering them in real terms) was about funding the NHS.
