Because the government dont want there own people in trouble.

CRB checks don't come from the Police  Force they come from a company that the government uses for some of its work. I can imagine the time it takes is because of the sheer number of checks they have to do.

I'm guessing that you are asking this in jest, at least I hope so.  Just in the unlikely possibility that you are serious, most police work very hard to help citizens and enforce the law.  \n\nIt can be a highly stressful job in that they generally must deal with the dregs of society.  Even so, most overcome this grim environment and are pleasant and attempt to serve every call.  Often the calls they receive must be prioritized with the most serious coming first, because some times there is just not enough police staff to respond to all calls.

I cannot understand why we have to pay more out of our taxes for these people when the money should be spent on proper Police Officers.\nI find most of those that I have met to be very rude and offensive and all they seem to do is pretend they are real Policemen/Women.\nAll we need on this country (UK) is a professional well paid police force able to do the job by getting out of their high powered cars and back on the street where they belong rather,than getting part timers to do their work for them.

Power corrupts and if you are a cop then that would be us and if they'd like they will prove it by showing you it is just-us.  If you think just-us is justice then you are part of the problem.  Thick corruption and a passive society of smacked asses.  Then too, the cop will say, "We can do that and you cannot.  Yet through it all, they are a neccesary evil in that there are those times when their assistance is needed: Even inside prisons.  Therefore what we have is a mixture of shit and honey.  Amen.

You need to discuss the issue that police forces seem to be trying to improve their public image - what people think of them, that they are trying to improve how they interact and get along with the public, and that some people or factors may be making this difficult.  There is an effort to make police forces more "people friendly".\n\nI hope this helps a little.

The shut down is due to poor management.

It's sad for his family.\nAs blind as he was, under his government South Africa had working roads, working hospitals, an effective police force, a viable economy, currency that actually bought something, crime free streets, hardly any rape or murder, a world class schooling system, no AIDS epidemic, no crumbling cities, no witchdoctors running the National Health system and an effective military.\n\nBut hey, I guess things are better now.\n\nTake a look at the kind of thing PW Botha was up against - http://www.netcomuk.co.uk/~springbk/enemy.html\n\n*additional*\n\nEmma, Mandela and the rest of the scum of the now ruling ANC party employed rampant violence as a means to seize power, following the exact same blueprint as every other African dictator before them.\nI served in the South African Defense Force - it was a case of fighting fire with fire.\nThe big surprise at the so-called Truth and Reconciliation sessions was that the methods employed by the Soviet and Cuban trained ANC were far, far more brutal than that of their enemies.

Because the people are dumbasses. They have no idea what they want. I think most of the people on here that have a problem with the police are the very ones that cause the problems. I also think the ones that write those stupid questions are either high or stupid...you pick. Until they walk a day in a police officers shoes they will never..and i do mean never...understand what they go thru.

Because the political entities that control the police will not let them. And sometimes the police themselves profit from the corruption

This country has many laws, which don't encompass family-owned businesses, because of the unique nature of that situation.  There are international efforts by the UN, Peace Corps and Apartheid Now. You need to run a google search or be a little more specific.

It has been proven to the satisfaction of many people, but there are some that are extremely hard to convince, for a variety of reasons. These reasons are mainly faith based, in that they have faith in the government, and do not want to believe that their government could murder three thousand of its own citizens. They will all wake up in due time, probably when the country is under Martial law, with curfews imposed, and they become prisoners in their own house.\nThat's for the lucky ones of course. The less lucky will become prisoners in the 600 or so concentration camps which have been built around the country, and are already manned and waiting for their presence.

You know, it's probably best for me not to vocalize on this subject but I'm going to take the plunge and do so.\n\nI have had the same problem so far in my life.  I find that the Police are very arrogant and misuse their authority.  I know policemen that break the law regularly: smoking pot, taking steroids, and blowing off illegal fireworks on the 4th.  Yet, turn around and give me a ticket for going 5 miles over the limit.\n\nTruly, someone needs to do some undercover type work and expose many of the corruptions in the police force.  They are in a position to abuse authority...and they do so, and don't get caught.  They don't seem to view the public the same as other people do.  They have exalted themselves, in some way, above the public.\n\nIn the average cop, you'll find a good portion of Arrogance.

Unfortunately, power in the hands of the wrong person is extremely dangerous.  Some Police Officers are civil and do not set out to hurt people...they just want to help stop crime and make it a safer world to live in.  Unfortunately, there are the bad ones who do it because they can.  They should not be allowed to get away with it.  In Australia there was so much bad publicity and complaints put in about police brutality, that the Police Force now is under constant scrutiny....and the majority of complaints are taken seriously.  The Police officers who beat people up should be reported and if more people did report this kind of behaviour then officers would be made to be accountable.  What about the mothers of these young guys.  If the mothers got together and each of them puts in a written complaint, then it would have to be taken seriously.  If more people would complain about Police brutality it would get rid of the bullies in the Police Force.  They only do it because they can get away with it.  Just because they are Police Officers, they cannot be a law unto themselves and if they commit a crime.....and beating up a person for no cause is a crime, then the police officer/officers should be prosecuted in a court of law.  They have to abide by all the laws that we have to abide by.  But only when it is reported can anything ever be done.  Like I said, they do it because they can and no-one is putting in written complaints to senior police officers.  As far as I know all written complaints have to be taken seriously and the offending officer will be asked to explain.

no, but then the police get away with a lot of things they shouldn't. There are good cops and bad cops!

any sites that are violating the law do get shut down if they are in the US, if they are outside of the country then they work with interpol and other organizations to shut them down and arrest any people involve in such sites. as long as the sites that are running are abiding by the laws then they will probably remain up.
