Police rotten to the core

Corruption in the commons and other crimes which constitute abuse of public trust should be punishable by life imprisonment; the stripping of voting rights; and a permanent ban on holding any position in the public sector.
 
Absolutely shocking, what's even more disturbing is that there's not more of an outcry or more action from government. Can you imagine the reaction if this was published in the UK?
 
The government is to busy worrying about blue lights on cars, numberplates, name changes, party planning and growing beetroot for HIV victims.

Don't forget test driving their new "discounted" Mercedes.
 
Yes I forgot that one, and to busy building fortresses around their homes for safety and security, and working out stupid speeches about the crime rate that is dropping, and telling people to become reservists if they want to change the situation etc.
 
In all the years I worked as a bouncer I met only 2 cops that I couldn't bribe. Both of them went on and have relatively senior positions within the SAPD at the moment. As for the rest, every last one of them has their price. We referred to cops as The Department of Corruption

What would bouncers need to bribe cops for anyway?

Yes pay them more, but have some minimum education requirements as well. I am sure some don't even know how to spell their own name
 
Sometimes they catch you selling take away booze to friends, you slip em a few bucks and they pretend they didnt see it. Stuff like that :D

We must really stop blaming everything and anyone else for things that go on in the country. If I murder someone, must I blame my overbearing mother? If I steal, must I blame my boss for not paying me enough? If I stalk children and molest them, must I blame people for actually having kids?

Either you are corrupt or you are not. It doesn't matter if you get paid enough or not.

I agree 100%. Yes cops should be paid better but that's a separate issue, low pay doesn't justify corruption.
 
You have to be really careful not to generalise here... I did that for years and really thought our entire local station was rotten to the core.
After joining the local CPF a few years ago - and actually meeting many of the cops up the way.... I find there are many who are pretty wonderful.

Sure there are always the Rotten Apples (as our Commissioner calls them), lurking about at most Stations but dont generalise guys....

No denying there are lots of great cops, but there are unfortunately too many corrupt ones too.
