GREAT now the criminals will be able to run off,while the copper is standing there reading out the health and safety rules,plus probably having to go threw 12 procedures,before being allowed to actually electrocute someone.
absolutely shocking.

Up until 6 months ago I was in response for a county force, I had to leave due to a very very bad injury on duty.

I am sorry if you have had a bad experience with the police but please rest assured that to deploy CS is a big thing for an operational officer. Its not something that can just happen and is then forgotten about.

Statements, use of force forms, PNBs. Its not something that is just used as a first form of resolve.

It was the most heavily regulated I have ever been in my life, including time in the services. You cannot do anything without accounting for yourself and I honestly believe that for an officer to use a taser, knowing that he could possibly lose his job would not be something taken lightly.

If it turns out to be misused I will meet you back here in a year an apologise.

Is this like "you have nothing to fear if you've done no wrong", or is it more like "you won't get pepper sprayed if you've done no wrong", or is it "you won't get shot if you've done no wrong"?

Trust the coppers not at all, you'll not go far wrong

Red tape has ruined the police force imo, they seem impotent to do anything these days And even when they do act the cps cause no end of problems for them.

Bad idea IMHO, you just know the British Police farce will be trigger happy and be desperate to give anyone they feel a spark up the ***, tis kinda like giving a six year old a lighter and telling him not to set fire to anything!

Exactly how they should tackle them here.
