To be fair police officers can (and do) commit murder and get off scot free.

And before you say 'oh, it isn't murder' - a rose by any other name...

Examples please?

I'm glad I'm flying to Canada and getting out of this stupid country on Saturday. I'm disappointed that I have to come back two weeks later, however.
 
This is disgusting and this sort of behaviour is the reason I left a job in the area a few years ago. I was working just around the corner from tottenham hale station in the technopark, I worked there for exactly a year during which time I was threatened several times, stabbed once and had to deal with people begging every day.

I appreciate the irony, but that doesn't really have anything to do with my point.

Well it does, every society has it's issues. Sure Canda is a fantastic country to live in, but so is this one, perspective is everything. Going on hoilday != living there.

I'm more than aware of that, but I've spent time over there before and my parents live there currently, and it's a far nicer place to be. The UK seems to be number one for "Let's all hate the police" at the moment, nothing's ever positive.

But in any case, as I said before, it still has nothing to do with my original point, which was more about being able to escape this crazy place for a while than where I happen to be going.

I think the 'Lets hate the police', along with poverty, is used as a scapegoat so politicians don't have to be politicaly incorrect and admit that certain sections of society of prone to ape-like behaviour.
 
Police are concerned with fb being used to organise rival gangs to form truces to fight police according to skynews, was this why my missus could'nt get onto it last night that it was being blocked?

Not sure if i agree with that censorship what if there was a real need to protest in future rather than kicking off over the death of a scummy wannabe gangter who thinks it ok to carry a firearm and take pot shots at people police or otherwise.
