Police Bashing (rant)

I am sick and tired of seeing the media and people who think they know it all, bashing the Police for something that to an extent they had no control over.
PC David Rathband was shot by a man who was released from prison early, 99% of the time prisoners are released early, the Police have NO control over this, they also receive thousands of calls daily about someones boyfriend/girlfriend/father/brother/sister, the list could go on, threatening them, they CANNOT send a protection squad (call it what you will) to each and everyone of these people, there are not enough of them. So why now across the media does all this seem to be the Polices fault, another comment I am seeing is that during the Cumbria shootings the ARV presence wasn't as big as it has been after a Copper has been shot, that is just not true, then the worst one of the lot (and most common) about Police victimising 'normal' people for speeding/not wearing seatbelts etc and not dealing with 'real' criminals, god I am sick of it!!! if you break the law, then take the consequences and shut up bashing these hard working men and women who do a job that most MOP would never be able to do.
Mr Dibble has a very thick skin about this sort of thing, I expect most Police Officers do, but I don't, the little Dibbles and I are very proud of Mr Dibble and we hate to see the media firing up the general public about the supposed uselessness of the British Police Force, and then the general public falling for it.

    Thank you for those words, funny isn't it that the people most at fault for running down the Police are the media/newpapers etc?

    A group of people that really are in NO place to throw stones...
