I don't like how the met police beat the shit of legitimate
protestors and act as bully boys for the state, feels the
bigger the crime you do, the less time you do, we live in a
totally mental world full of mentally ill people

they are cunts, and i don't just mean cos they're the
jackboot of a corrupt state, they're just horrible people.
remember that kid at school who was a prefect but all
lads-lads-lads with it? a cunt who'd sell you a fivers of
hash then grass you up for having it on you? that kid is
probably now up for promotion at the police. these ppl do
not change. cunts

yeah, in general im happy they exist as a form of armed and
trained sherrif to call if in need. i do feel they serve
alone for the fact that they find you if you mess with other
people, thus preventing a good portion of hurting and
killing. so i agree to law and order in general.

when it comes to the people who do the job its a whole
different animal though. personally i have never been
wronged by the police. i guess ive never fitted their
profile of a thug not even when i was a dreadlock youth. i
have never been searched when riding a bike drunk and high
without lights in the middle of the night. they pulled me
over many times but never made me pay a fine or anything,
when they easily could have done it.

my friends however have had all kinds of weird encounters.
im gonna tell a few later. deffo have a hilarious one.

i can tell you one thing though, ive always wanted to do:
its run like hell after i made eye contact with a random
officer on the street just to see if i was going to get em
into pursuit. and then see if i could outrun em. if they
catched up how they would react when i tell them i was just
running for the sake of playin catch. ^^

i know that my personal experience in no way reflects what
happens around and they pulled a nasty in my town too, which
i will be going into later.
i really like the way arte tv portayed police brutality in
germany and france. very insightful.

Last year I barked at a plain clothes policeman on the Tube
for not wearing a mask (I didn't know he was a plain clothes
policeman at that point, I just asked him who he thought he
was staring at)

heres a true story, i havent ben there so i have to rely on
my buddys report on this but heres how it went:
my friend was on his way home from a binge. at the front
door he noticed he must have lost his keys. so he went
around to the back yard to check if he left the patio door
or the window open and indeed the window was bent open, so
he fumbled around and indeed managed to fully open the
window to enter. can anybody guess how the story goes on?
right, while entering drunk he breaks some stuff and makes a
lot of noise looking for the light switch. so one of the
tennents in the flats above or around apparently calls the
police, which so happens to actually find the keys on the
ground in front of the house. now things get weird. my
friend, inside his flat is unable to open the door without a
key to answer the demanding police outside. i dont know if
there was any conversation through the door. like many of us
at the time he probably had some light drugs around the
living room table, but i dont remember this being his
concern. however eventually the police enters using the keys
much to the displeasure of my friend who storms towards em
rambling and yelling to get the fuck out of his apartment.
(hes a quite tall guy i wouldnt want running at me) next
hing he finds himself on the floor, cuffed. i cannot explain
how, but the situation gets so far out of hand they took him
to the station and kept him overnight. he had to face
assaulting an officer and pay the stay at the station.

usually when i tell this story i cant help but finding it
hilarious, because its such an unlikely and clumsy event to
have happened, but its really sad also that it had not been
resolved without my buddy being taken in.

so, ive always felt the policing in my little <200.000
shitters town was rather sensible, BUT in 2020 an officer
blew the whistle and a group of 29 officers in the region
had to face charges for exchanging nazi images and racist
bullshit via whatsapp. after that more accusations and cases
emerged revealing right winged misbehaviour including
beatings of a cuffed man. fittingly our main station still
is seated in adolfstreet. most of the fuckers were seated in
the bigger neighbouring city.

correction: there was no whistleblower,
the racist bunch was discovered when the private mobile
phone of an officer was searched for evidence of him selling
information to the press

mixed bag
i managed some sort of jedi mind trick on a WPC once, whilst
camping with m8s on common land by factories... although she
was admiring my mates bong, that got confiscated . R.I.P.
Bulbosaur
got pounced on by two coppers whilst walking over a bridge
once because they thought i "looked suicidal" [pissed up] -
came from nowhere one on each arm gripping me telling me
life's worth living and that
i know 2 x WPCs both of them were excellent humans, sadly
neither now work in the police force
never spent a night in cells, touch wood

i did ask how you get to learn how to do police speek,
like "gained entry to the vehicle" instead of "broke
into the car" and all that jazz, but i don't think i got a
satisfactory answer.
when done right it's like neutral language is the sort that
should be used in court, but a lot of the more meat head
types garble it into a hilarious/scary parody.

Where I live there is always a heavy police presence, they
have this unit call the matrix that drives around in a
yellow van with grilles over the window, literally everytime
i go out i see a rozzer or a car

force to be reckoned with" on the left of the vehicle.

that's another thing about coppers: they work purely on
'intuition' - they will never take what you say at face
value, but if u set something up so that they think they
figured it out themselves, then it is nearly impossible to
persuade them otherwise... very basic people. Very reddit.

Yeah I had a copper the other month at the door asking if I
knew the guy next door, and I said no, and he said "thats
weird he said he knew you well" and I was thinking perhaps
the guy next door means someone else rather than me, but the
copper acts dead suspicious then when its an obvious mistake
