Serious question about police resources and equipment

Don't give all cops guns, we saw what happened when we gave them Pepper Spray and Tazers.

Date rape?

Wot? Bad guys got pepper sprayed and tasered?

you know that and I know that. The point I was trying to make was that from a tactical perspective, it seems to me that a cop should assume a worst case scenario, rather than the best case.

Of course if there was a full on tactical response, then allegations of pleece brooootality would ensue.

So the answer in the immortal words of the Stepping Razor, Mr Peter Tosh:



great song too.

Oh yeah ... quote one of my favourite artists at me ... wrote all the best songs that most people think are Marley's ...

I am more of a ska fan than a reggae fan, but Ive got a few best ofs, and stuff by Delroy Wilson, Tosh, Saint Bob, Toots, Jimmy Cliff etc.

Actually started with my love of The Clash. Their covers of "Pressure Drop" and "Police and Thieves" spun me off into a whole genre of music I had no idea existed.

Gawd you sound nearly as old as me ... Love the Clash .. saw Toots and the Maytells live in Welington ... Got all those artists ... but I was into reggae before The Clash covers .. brings back memories ...

Way off topic ..
