As horrendous as it is, after watching the gun debate on here over the girl who lunged at trying to stab another girl getting shot to death, and having people try and claim that the cop should of used martial arts skills or shoot the knife out of her hand or some poo poo, it’s very difficult to take any level of discussion about physical and armed combat with anyone who doesn’t regularly do it.

I’d much rather cops taser people with knives than leave it up to the officers with guns to be firing bullets.

Reading the Starmer Project and his slavering desire to prosecute (read: persecute) folks is ironic given the absolute knifery he executed as part of the shadow cabinet. The guy is a loving Edward Scissorhands when it comes to his ‘own side’. No one more qualified, I guess, etc etc.

Waiting for the book to arrive. I got the ebook + paperback offering but prefer to read an actual book. Hopefully should arrive this week.

Not sure if there are many contexts in which "regularly does a violence" lines up with "I will listen to this person", there are a few narrow ones

There's a big difference between "you should simply do a judo and win" and "we don't care if you might get stabbed, you're wearing a vest, you incessantly talk about how dangerous the job is, and yet it is always on members of the public to take all the risk before a cop swoops in and executes a fully incapacitated attacker". Please understand: nobody is saying you should have superpowers. We think you should show more bravery and initiative than whatever cabbies, millwal fans, or ex-convicts happen to be in the area, and don't really trust specials will use the tasers lawfully in as much as half of all cases

Meanwhile Ive got a social worker friend who has joked that the time he got an edged weapon to his neck and disarmed the 13 stone 6ft teen with a stern reminder that killers don't need to show off to be one of his career highlights. He's worth ten thousand of any cop in England. Get a real job.

See also the people who work in Alternative Provisions (formerly Pupil Referral Units; the schools that kids end up at when they're excluded from their mainstream secondary school).
I doubt there are many staff who've worked in an AP for a few years who haven't had knives pointed at them, had to break up or stall a fight between rival gangs, had furniture thrown at them or been punched/kicked by a teenager. And I bet basically all of them have been sworn at in very uncreative ways on a fairly regular basis. The police would deal with this by taser-ing the young person, or piling on with a group of colleagues; the education staff don't have that option, so they either try to talk the young person down, or they give them the space to rage out and intervene when that young person has calmed down a bit.

I know someone who took a knife off a threateny pupil without anyone getting hurt, then got physically attacked by the pupils parents for taking the knife and was told off by the school as it "wasn't their job to disarm pupils" afterwards. They've now become the regions go to expert on expulsions instead of intervening. Probably responsible for quite a lot of AP's workload.

Hmm, quite possibly is actually Pissflaps? Anyway, agree he’s an obnoxious prick.

I’m really not sure what the point of the police is at this point. They’re worse at calming situations down than the public, stupider and more aggressive than your average person, and somehow also less able to subdue people who are a danger to themselves and others than a wide swathe of the public.

The only thing I know about him is that I keep getting accused of being him without ever having read any of his posts. So it's not me putting myself in his company so much as you lot doing it for me.

I don't really do "phobes" at all, the reason you lot disapprove so much is because I'm less hostile to the rest of the left and more willing to accept them than you are. You are not exactly an inclusive bunch which may be why you get side-lined.

Just my take on it.

You type like him too, in that you don't actually seem to want a conversation. You want to laugh at people and yell about your "Correct" ideas, but actually talking about yourself is something you never do. You condescend, lecture and act like you are important but never enquire about other people's lives or thoughts.

The main reason I dissaprove of you is because you seem to like the police over the public and seem nigh on terminally upset that people call you an idiot for that. Your not reaching out to other bits of the left, all I've seen is smugness and being a dick to people who disagree with you.

Your takes are not worth that much. Same as mine.

Would you talk about yourself or be nice on the internet to a bunch of people regularly typing "oval office" at you whilst they obsessed that you were someone else who once upset them ?.

I don't do "phobes" so I don't class them all as being exactly the same based entirely on external appearances. A tiny minority of them are genuinely trying to do what's best within a corrupt and broken system that seems to be getting worse whilst being vilified by their own organisations. Same as every other organisation in the rotting remnants of our fallen empire.

Yes. I'm still being polite enough to you aren't I? Or perhaps I would take the hint that I am not welcome and just leave. If the only reason you are here is "people were yelling at me and I decided to stay to mock them" then how little do you value your own time? People are comparing you to Pissflaps because you seem to have no understanding of yourself or your ideas but seem to think staying is the best option.

Human nature is just as much a construct as anything else. There is no one human nature.

The police as they exist and were created are the enemies of the working class by definition, you support them for a simple reason, you're not left wing. Now I know, you're thinking "but I can't be right wing, because the right wing are all a bunch of cunts".
