Agro biker copper in Chch

Nice thread dredge.

Its an offence because your politicians made it so.

Failing to stop changed things from a straight forward infringement notice to an arrestable offence.

Your politicians also give the police the power to use force to affect an arrest.

The dumb arse cyclist is the master of his own misery.

Surely its not necessary to enforce everything to the letter of the law. A blind eye in some cases. Wouldn't that be possible still . Pretty minor offence to involve the effort that was witnessed. Or you just winding us up ?

I guess so

And your attitude is utterly indicative of why Mr Plod has such a piss-poor reputation these days...

We don't know the circumstances of what took place, if it was just Joe public then you could quite right thinking its over the top to enforce laws like cycle helmets etc without any tolerance.

But.... if the person involved was some low life burglar or drug dealing piece of crap that pays no heed to any law then personally I would support the police taking a zero tolerance approach with such a person whenever they are found offending regardless of how minor it might seem.

Um u DO realise the original post was nearly 3 years ago lol

Darn great isn't it, this thead was up near the top of bike ravings, I didn't "dredge" spudchucka, whoever posted before me must have deleted,
I don't have time to waste trolling pages of threads, but admit I never noticed the date of the first post .

This an old thread, but your response is what causes the cop bashing. Of course we dont know the full circumstances. Appearance wise pretty heavy use of force for a trivial event. Sort of why the average Joe Bloggs is worried about the taser. I'm not bashing cops here just a view point shared my many of my friends. You have to have the support of the public or your job would be a lot worse.

Every Cyclist should be treated that way. I'm sick of the mongrels causing accidents and near misses. The cop should have shot him.

I didn't accuse you of cop bashing.

My response is the way it is because I can't be stuffed pussyfooting around the ill informed crap that gets spouted on these forums constantly in relation to the police.

What appears to the lay man to be excessive is almost always completely justifiable to those who have the knowledge and experience to judge.

The more PC we become, the more problems you are going to have. The PC ones make up the juries.

I'd rather live in a world where the Guardians of the Peace

did not behave as if is a good thing to physically assault someone

for an offence as petty as to be wearing the wrong colour socks

LMFAO... sore the funniest shit today..... A bike copper was on the side of the rd and a fella on a push bike with no lid on was bikeing towards him, the copper put his arms up so the cyclist weaved out to avoid him.... We weaved to the center of the rd to avoid the cyclist... well bugger me the copper on the bike ran at the cyclist grabed him hauling his arse to the ground causing him to tumble head fist... looked like a sweet gutsa..... LOL... the cyclist got up and knocked the copper to the ground ......... hehehehe at that point we lost view of it all.

Now the copper should not have done that however thats what I would have done.... and that laddies and gents is why I am not a copper

I have just spoken to that cop and you are completely wrong. You must have had your head up your ass at the time maybe?
