[quote][i]Originally posted by gtitim[/i] [quote][i]Originally posted by Andrew[/i] That is a load of bollocks and yes i hate the Police. I used to be out every night crusing. Not once did i see someone smoking weed! None of us for a start can afford to tweak cars and smoke that shit. I have stopped several of young lads round where i work. Often the car stinks of weed, or there is evidence of its use. I have seized several bags off them, issued cannabis warnings and arrested for possession. My car got key a year or so back and to this day i'm waiting for the copper to come back and arrest the guy that did it. I had evidence on a web cam and gave a statement. I gave up chasing it up after a few weeks as i didn't have the time. Did you know who the person was? CCTV is great evidence, but its still necessary to identify the offender. I have several jobs on the go right now where i have excellent CCTV, but the problem is if the offender is not recognised, how do we find them. Police don't have facial recognition systems where we can scan a picture in and Id someone, or at least my force has nothing like that. Not always so simple to prove, unless the CCTV clearly identifies them by face, and shows them clearly doing the damage. When i say clearly, i mean that their solicitor views it and says they're fucked, not looks for excuses or defences to why they were there, what they were doing etc. A young girl got stabbed at the back of my house. Not once, but 14 times. The girl who was taken to court got off with saying it was self defence - 14 times she stabbed her! Is the law there to protect us then? Then blame the CPS/Courts for that. Police job is to find offender and put them before the court. Up to the CPS and court to decide on the charge and whether they are guilty, and if so guilty of what. I have no problem is being stopped in my car. I pay insurance, tax and is fully road legal. It just annoys me that my car and myself are not safe on the streets. And yes, we need to get those uninsured drivers off the road. Thats why we have SOCAP. We will seize them if uninsured, and regularly stop cars that who may be insured, but if our computer says not, then a stop is often a way of clearing the matter up, for example if you buy a new car then it takes a while for the insurance to change on our system, not instant.
