David Bain vs The Crown - game over

[Banditbandit]

Who gives a fuck...

I'll bet you say that to all the speeders you stop ...

[oneofsix]

There's plenty of professions where mistakes are not tolerated, how would you react if you were having an operation and the surgeon hadn't bothered to do part of his job?
I've spent most of my life as a forklift driver, often a slight mistake would have cost me my job.
What about pilots or electricians or truck drivers, if any of these people take their jobs as lightly as or police seem to people die.

Mistakes can happen but the NZ police have a culture of half assing it and not giving a fuck about the consequences, as plainly evident in your own attitude.

+1 and the scary thing about the police is they don't seem to realise or care that they can be ruining innocent peoples lives just as surely as that surgeon or pilot can end their lives.

True - it makes the experience pleasant for both involved and smooths the way...

Are you telling us you actually stop speeding drivers..? How could you! Doncha know everyone drives at a speed they know to be safe and therefore should be left alone..?

[oneofsix]

Are you telling us you actually stop speeding drivers..? :

Well that's his story and his mates will back him up, he also has the radar and lasers to prove it - isn't there something about how us surfs aren't allowed to know how that stuff works? Obey the authoritar

[Clockwork]

The left mark on the thumb is curved inwards, thus not matching the straight edges on the magazine...

I agree but I think the curve matches the edge of the magazine where it rises over the base of the top bullet.

Madness and Katman must be having their monthly, red galore!

And yes, I am having a great day, thank you!

'Surf' instead of serf - is that a new KB word like crusier and garagre??

[Smifffy]

'Surf' instead of serf - is that a new KB word like crusier and garagre??

Or maybe 'boredome'?

[Madness]

Ah well, I admit defeat - it's time we had infallible cops that never misjudge or make mistakes

Hey, tell ya what Madness, you and your mistake free perfect workmates should join the Police and show us how it's done properly, the job's a doddle (apparently...) so it won't take too long for you and your mates to pick it up and do it perfectly!.

Or if your not game feel free to point out where we can source similar perfect people - obviously the recruiting officers are making too many mistakes in selecting new cops so no use using THEM...

A shame these perfect cops weren't around at the time of the Bain shoot-'em-up eh?

O.M.Fucking.Gee.

The way you carry on about perfection you'd have thunk we were discussing a popo's inability to split an atom or summat. We're discussing one's ability to tell the time for fucks sake, something I mastered from the age of (from memory) around 6. It's hardly rocket science, yet you come in here carrying on like a kid who's had his ice-cream stolen by the local bully. Tell me Scummy, what's the name of the defence lawyer in question here 'coz I reckon they're pretty fucking onto it and if ever I get wrongfully charged again I don't want to have to fuck about like last time before the pigs finally drop the stack-of-steaming-dog-shit charges.

You're right, it's a shame there weren't any popo with an IQ higher than 30 in Dunedin at the time of the Bain murders. Crime of the fucking century.

Not that you give a fuck, of course

Oh, Maha; - Fuck off.

[Katman]

Madness and Katman must be having their monthly, red galore!

And yes, I am having a great day, thank you!

Is it Maha's turn to have his hand up your arse?

[Katman]

The way you carry on about perfection you'd have thunk we were discussing a popo's inability to split an atom or summat.

Dude, half the time they can't hit who they're aiming for.

They're hardly likely to be able to bisect an atom.

[scissorhands]

you boys need to apologise and shake hands
lifes too short

I too have been treated very poorly at times by the state and popo...

See it for what it is.... and move on.
Bleating on KB will change little
Group think sheeple are in the majority....
Its an evolutionary strength nowadays
Intelligence is not favoured.....
The emperor has no clothes anyone??

nearly ALL COUNTRIES are fascist states

Which is why David Bain has yet to be paid out (compensated) it's increasingly likely that, that wont ever happen. You can keep on arguing your thoughts and voicing an opinion, fact is, four years after Bain was released from prison, he is still an out of work paper boy with an over anxious besty that wants recompense. A good story line for Shortland Street.

He has a job actually. He was reported to have called in sick the day after that bulshit aired on TV.

"Technicality" is just another way of saying "popo not doing their job properly", innit?

So this situation obviously isn't exclusive to the particular case you're reffering to, is it? Pretty fucking simple I would have thought, either write down the exact time (including seconds) or allow 11 minutes.

Sheesh, it's a wonder anyone gets convicted in this country.

Allowing 11 minutes might also have been cause for the case to be thrown out. What with the cop not taking the law 100% at it's written meaning, which might alter the results of the breath test, outside the required perameters. So instantly, we know that for all your fuckin bulshit mouthing off, you are in no position to question a God damned thing the cops do. But lets carry on anyway, it's been a while since I told a knob gobbling fuckwit what I thought of him.

Discussing incompetence & lack of intelligence amongst our serving popo is hardly off topic I would have thought.

So the concept of minutes and seconds is beyond the cognitive skills of some of your colleagues then? Is this what you're saying by not saying it?

The issue was the writing of the procedure, not the actions of the cop.

It's entirely plausible that neither Robin nor David did the killings.

No, it's possible but not likely.

I could understand the frustration (and maybe even Ed's baseless attack on the presiding Judge) if the issue was one of nano-seconds. As road-users we're all asked to remember the "three-second rule" so it's hardly rocket science is it?

What's the difference? Legally speaking, there isn't one. A time limit is a time limit, it's adherence is mandatory to protect everyone involved.

Based on what I know about the case Scummy has shared with us (as much as you do) he wasn't "let off in a stupid technicality" at all. The case was thrown out because the popo had failed (once again) to meet the requirements of THE LAW. If my loved ones were killed and the defendant walked under the circumstances Scummy has described I'd be angry as fuck - with the NZ Police.

You need to get tested man, I think you might have what is these days called 'a learning disability'. That's polite speak for, 'you're as thick as two short fucking planks cunt'.

The defendant walked, not because the cop failed, but because the cop might have failed to meet the requirements and could not say for certain either way. As a result, a procedure got rewritten.

Oh, cry me a fucking river why don't you!

The job of the popo is to uphold the law by working within the law. If you pillocks can't do that effectively it's either because the law needs re-writing to make it simpler for you cunts to understand or you chumps just aren't up to the task.

I hope the driver in question didn't injure anyone, it would suck if that were the case.

Sharpen up, NZ Police.

I just quoted this, so everyone gets another chance to point and laugh at the special kid.

You want a suggestion on how to fix this? How about some kind of penalties to the cops that don't do things properly.

Oh good, another special kid for the fucktard to be friends with. I do so hate to see people lonely.

You might wanna look into the number of medical fuck ups that our country has. It is a very poor record compared to many other countries. Ya know, like wrong limbs being amputated and worse.

Truck drivers? Are you bloody kidding? They don't come fuckin close to following the letter of the law most of the time. As a fork hoist driver, I bet you know it better than most too.

I bet a higher percentage of cops take their job seriously, than those in your profession.

+1 and the scary thing about the police is they don't seem to realise or care that they can be ruining innocent peoples lives just as surely as that surgeon or pilot can end their lives.

This sand box is getting full. Three's a crowd though, two of you retards will soon gang up on the third. Best get recruiting.

O.M.Fucking.Gee.

If you two want to see an atom split, you are welcome to come to Wellington and I shall demonstrate using nothing more than current items in my kitchen. It's a fuckin shit load easier than dealing with the scum of our country on a daily basis, I'm sure of that much.

I too have been treated very poorly at times by the state and popo...

Did they judge you, before they knew you?
