Please tell me this is just poor translation. Please! So, what are these 16 laws? I guess colluding with known criminals would be one. Hmmm - . "Hello officer!"

Oh let's be fair there have been many important tasks that required attention such as Helmet Days. It's easier to pick on ordinary members of the public than take on important and protected people especially those wearing the same uniform.

NongKhaiKid Posted March 11, 2016 Share Posted March 11, 2016 Can anyone imagine a BIB Operational Targeting meeting ? In considering who to target there must be no one rich, connected or with a family name, no politician or anyone connected to one, no senior police or military officer and anyone connected to one, no, no , no etc. ! No one around this table either. Now is there anyone left we can actually go after and there will be no comeback ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

"Come and get me Copper " well not me. regards Worgeordie Apparently so. Will this 6,000 (conservative estimate ..) be added to the 50,000 (again, conservative estimate) arrest warrants already having been admitted as being outstanding some years ago?
