Fault and offence

[adam&chryss]

Why would they say to stop swearing if that was not the case.

Why argue with Policemen its a stupid thing to do as they will always win in the end...

I agree. Just do as they say and get on with your life. If you`d just say ok sorry then thats it and no one is angry or stressed.
Respect works both ways doesn`t it and argueing with them doesn`t help.
Bear that in mind for the future.

You mean policemen always right? you have to say YES and SORRY to them? I don't think so. We were not really in a junction as hubby says. That's why they argued. Sometimes policemen agreed they're wrong too. Their just seeking fault and offence Even Mr. Gordon and Cameron apologized on T.V. if they were wrong. But I agree British are good citizens in their own country, they always obeys rules inspite of moaning about the law and rules, they still obey the government.

I heard Mom, Dad and hubby talking about privatization of post office, trains etc. which was done by Tatcher gov't. They said most people didn't like it and I asked them why people didn't resists and made actions during that time?

Seen people do that and then the police confiscate the camera on some trumped up charge

Unless it is a weapon, they can't take it off you by force. All you need to tell them is they can have it back at the station via your solicitor no problemo....then they won't get it. .....if they try to take it, you can have them for assault.....it's on camera

Mean while in the real world

Seriously I have seen people in a couple of situations have cameras taken off them due to "security issues" Doesn't matter about the law you were resisting arrest. Oh dear your camera was damaged it managed to erase itself /the film fell out.

Knowing your rights and what happens is a tad different.

In Britain there is a bizarre creature with an asshole on it's back.. It's a Police horse!

In the Devon countryside there is a man drinking from a pond with his hand. A farmer shouts "Dunn driink thart! That there's got cuws craap innit!" The man replies "I'm a policeman from London, I'm afraid I don't understand your accent!?" The farmer says "Oh! I was just saying, use both hands, you'll get more!"

It`s ok you carry on argueing with them and getting stressed, i`ll just agree and stay calm and happy
Thatcher did lots of things and the majority of the country voted her in, though i`m not sure many scots did.

My mobile was inside my jacket left at friends house that time.

I remember when we were at Pitlochry for a 3 days holiday, I got my video with me. I have noticed that the road is too narrow and there's no white line in the middle. Then suddenly, there was a car coming infront and hit our right side mirror and was broken into pieces. We turned back and chased the driver to stop but he didn't. I have noticed his side mirror too was partly damaged. I took video, photos, and got his plate number. Then we rang police and we discovered that the car is owned by local resident. I showed them my photos and videos taken. Police made report for us to claim insurance payment.

It`s ok you carry on argueing with them and getting stressed, i`ll just agree and stay calm and happy

I am happy expressing what I feel and give explanations than hide it.

Anyone can say sorry its wheter you mean it Brown and cameron just want your vote they tell you the sky is pink if they think they get more votes or out of a hole.

Still a risky thing to do, make sure you keep a clear mind and know when to back down as i said before you can end up in the back of a meat wagon on a trumped up charge. Touch or swear at a police officer and they can nick you etc. They can use reasonable force, and of course you could of been resisting arrest....

I overheard a convo between two senior desk bound police officers recently the jist of was "Its not like the old days now we have to fill in paperwork and check they ok in the old days we just whacked em and locked em up for a while."

My point exactly
Having been the owner of a lovely red and black Yamaha R1 a few years ago i`m used to the police. Getting my point across sometimes didnt result in any shouting as I know it doesn`t help. Anyway like I said, i`m relaxed so thats fine.
