This was a heatedly debated subject on this site when the incident happened, people divided on opinion. Well, it's in court now.

I stand by my comments at the time.

I have the upmost respect for the police... however if they want respect they have to hold themselves to a higher standard, unfortunately there are some that let the side down. And the proverbial book should be thrown at those that do.

One rule for some and another for others is not good for anybody.

Aye but at the time were you not calling them filth or summat equally derogative?
Hang on and I'm quoting you here:

Sorry but after a LONG list of similar incidence I have NO respect for anyone wearing the uniform. Bring back mob rule... it's safer!

I have nothing but respect for the police, every one of them I have met has been a genuinely nice and trustworthy person. As with all occupations there are bound to be the odd bad one but I think in general the police do a great job.

Even the drummer was great, I wish they never split up.

So was was the court out come?
