Hazards of the job

[scumdog]

Did anybody else see the Pommy news item on TV1 this morning?

Showed a cop sheila dealing with a bunch of yobbos, she grabbed one and he fell over pulling her down on top of him, some of his mates stepped in to pull the cop off the guy.

Next thing from off screen a motorbike came barrelling in and deliberately ran over the cop sheila. (and all the other involved but not as badly):gob:

Cop sheila got bruising, cuts etc.

The prick on the bike got 9 years inside for that effort, good shit.:yes:

Not 'cos he ran over the cop but he had no idea how many he was really going to hit and how seriously he would have hurt them.

just see it on the midday news,:shit:


good to see the bike rider was wearing protective gear.

Unreal! the mental capacity of some people never stop amazing me.

[idb]

Just another example of motorcyclists being targetted by the judicial/law enforcement system.
Disgraceful....I feel so persecuted!!

[kickingzebra]

Bugger! I ran over a cat on the bike once, and that wasn't a nice feeling, but running over people puts the shits up me!

Thats one good reason when racing to stay either in front, and upright, or in the back, and not get lapped!!

Poor Cop.

No sympathy for anyone that intentionally tries to run another human bean over.

[Squeak the Rat]

Jaysus, was the cop and the yobbos actually fighting or was it just a little tussle (you know what i mean)? And any idea what the biker was actually trying to do?

Yep - it's pretty dangerous being a yobbo these days!

Good to see some justice being done... I'll see if I can catch the news tonight and watch it... if this thread was posted today lol

From what I can gather, the WPC was trying to break up a fight outside a pub when she was knocked over - the lunatic (who was not connected to the scene in any way) then rode his motorbike over her!

Fortunately, she was wearing body armour which protected her from the worst of it, but I understand she is still traumatised by the incident, quite aside from the various cuts and bruises she suffered.

I believe the madman got four years, plus another six years ban from driving.

At the court case, it was revealed that he had 85 (yes, EIGHTY-FIVE) previous convictions, including deliberately riding a pushbike at a policeman.

And they let him ride a bike? I dread to think what would have happened if he had been in a car.

For goodness' sake - Dover goes on a quick holiday to see his folks and the media makes all this fuss!

"She" was dealing to a skidmark/arsewipe... had to call on his mates to run her over from behind while on the ground... tough breed over there... Pfffttt...

NZ is more lenient than the UK - offenders have it pretty cruisy here for the most part. Probably coz your prisons are full - not coz there's so much crime but there just ain't enough prisons.

[Patrick]

Yep... and just a few years ago over 92% said "harsher penalties" in the referendum.

What do the overwhelming majority get from Helen?

Home Detention...WTF???? More like :finger: from her to the majority, but she still got voted in... Sheesh...

[Colapop]

It's f*cked up that someone could do that.

... however there are a couple of female cops round here I wouldn't mind pulling on top of me...:love:
