It's a bit more lapse over here, really, there is not enough stop and search by the police. A few months ago, I was just pulling up outside my house and seen a young feller I know, chasing another lad with a chefs knife. I stopped, confronted the lad and took the knife of him. Like I said, I knew the lad and the father is unknown, so I gave him a clip round the lug-hole for his efforts. His mother intervened when the lad called the cops on me and said I done the right thing. If the cops done their job properly and did more public policing, then the youths around here might not be so belligerent. He didn't realise what he had done. The lad now does work experience for me and is a changed person, not because he's doing work for me, but being guided in the right direction.
I could go on quite a bit about the laws over here, but, plainly speaking, the cops need to be doing a lot more than winging about how much they get paid and get out there and do their job.
They chose to do that job, "get on with it and stop being namby pamby."
