JeffG, your powers of detection can't be that great. Police employees have been posting on NWN for years. The problem is they are few and far between because:
1) Generally MOP's have made up their minds and are not interested in the otherside. 2) Someone usually see's it as an oppurtunity to have a go hidden behind the security of their computer screen. Why would one want to be verbally abused on a computer at home when they can spend 12hours a day at work getting it face to face. 3) Fear of detection by management.
A & B are observations of posters comments on this forum.
General concensus is that local police are useless, lazy and spend most of their time dealing with pointless things (just opinion formed from posters comments). Thats like me coming to your office with no idea what it is you do and accusing you of being rubbish at your job. But, they deal with the things that are reported, what's pointless to one is not so pointless to the person if effects!!
The best way to get the opinion of your local police is to go to the station and ask them. If you want to know about policing in your town, ask? Go to a Neighbourhood meeting, speak to the station boss.
I won't be entering into a full blown discussion about this issue and don't expect me to be posting my opinion on many police related topics. I like my job |
