    I think most people mean well when they go into law enforcement. I'm sure the reality of what it really is weeds out the people who won't fit in with what's going on. Some of them just go along with the whole deal so they can have a job etc. This is a common concept in western society.

    Never, ever, feel sorry for them. They know what they're signing up for - the ups, the downs, the possible actions and choices they'll have to make.
    Absolutely no love whatsoever for the po-lice.

    The comment made by the narator near the end is the real point. He questioned why the police spent so much money and their time spying on peaceful demonstrators. Michael Meacher said in his opinion it was the industrialists who wanted no bad publicity with their nuclear and coal generators. The police were helping them to protect their huge profits. There were no convinctions after all that 7 years. The public pay the police to protect private industrialists. The bastards don't pay the police and for that matter I doubt whether they pay any tax either. Forget about Mark Stone/Kennedy he was used as a pawn in their fukcin' lousy game they are playing.

    this website, this forum.... is not about finding a way to get around the spell checker.... and swear.

    I understand your anger. I have my own issues. I've been up for 40-42 hours or so, right now, and the thing that has kept me going.... is that I'm very PO'd right now. PO'd, for the most part...for the whole 42 hours.

    And when I wake up, from a fitful 6 or so hours, I'll be back in the same spot, whether I want to be or not.

    So I understand. But I don't express it on the forum.

    This service isn't available for me to use on the central coast of California... Any other links to it on other web sites?

    Hi Carmody, I am so sorry to upset you today. I speak from my heart. If I were to censor my feelings about all the stuff that goes on in this world I would be insincere to myself. When it comes to commenting on paedophiles and child murderers et al having their way I find it most repellant when people speak about it without using the odd expletive here and there. Again I am sorry if I offended you.

    Forgiveness is essential for our own souls.
    Holding a position of contempt dose not hold progress,
    realization ......... is key.
    A great service has been done, all thaw not intended.
    Mike has been betrayed by all of his colleges, the system / Government, the Crown.
    He took a job believing he would be protecting people
    HIS JOB TURNED HIM INTO THE BETRAYER of his countryman THIS has show-en the police / government to-be corrupt and any one working for them to-be tarred with the same brush. IT PROVED that no policeman can trust his so called superiors.
    It showed who the real people are, and where Mike heart is.
    Mike has learnt at great cost to him self. The Police who did not know, can see they are working for the wrong side. as well as the public, friends, and family who are paying for a service that is not, for witch it was intended.
