I've not been shy in bringing such events into the forum for discussion. Indeed I've said I have lost faith in the Police Force and I know a few coppers! As you have pointed out, there are people in many professions that commit crimes. Being the 'upholders' of the law it will always provoke more outrage.
Yeah, I completely agree that their crime is worse for the trust they have betrayed. I even have admitted i advocate a stronger punishment, but I can't conclude that we should think of the police as a criminal gang like Lincs...and this is the 2/3 topic by him on the same subject in a matter of days...just gets old.
