I did, Odin's Wrath was advocating slapping a Copper, hence me saying if he did he'd be done for assaulting a Police Officer.

if the police officer was acting aggressivly then tell the officer that if he continues then you can perform a citizens arrest under s43 of the public order act (acting aaggresivly to another and making them feel under threat), that really upsets them lol

Thats got to be the funniest and most ludicrous post Iv ever read..I take you have never had any serious dealings with our friendly plod then.

Back in 1996 myself and my brother had the crap kicked out of us by a van full of police. Guess what. No one saw anything :roll:

 

Thats quite upsetting. Whats more upsetting is the fact im able to easily believe you due to recent events and dealings with SYP's finest.

A 16 year old, well brought up kid would be uneasy with this situation. A chav would have stuck the nut on the accuser and advised the police officers that sex and travel were recommended. The police took the usual option, that being to intimidate the innocent, they are not fit for purpose.

Thanks to the police officer that sent us an ASBO letter, while he was totally innocent and protested this to the police officer the officer asked for his details saying he believed him and that he was in no trouble and that it was just to help them ect with their inquiries. More like using my son as a scapegoat for his crappy policing and fear of the statistics that show just how good they are not at their jobs.

 

Advice for anyone, kids or adults, do not offer them any information, not even your name and definitely don't fall for any help us with our inquiries lie. Let them do inquiries to find out who YOU are if your innocent, don't make the mistake my lad and have it cost you getting a record with them for nothing.

I was just wondering what advice to give my kids if this were to happen again. I'd have previously advised them to be co operative, but after this experience I'm more inclined to tell them to say either arrest me or I'm off, and tell them to go home.

 

 

It depends on the circumstances. If the police are being hostile, say as little as possible. Answer questions briefly, and don't let them make you feel you have to explain yourself, as this will only encourage them to ask more questions. Basically, if they are being friendly, you should be co-operative, but if they are openly treating you as a suspect, don't volunteer any information apart from answering questions. From my own experience, being innocent doesn't come into it. If some copper decides you are a wrong un' because of your hair cut or clothes, you are guilty of something, as far as he is concerned.
