Is my life less valuable than a police officer?

pinno

I got a sneak preview of the script for next weeks Eastenders omnibus, its very exciting:

Notes:
In a deep gravelly untrusting cockney accent - 1
In a screeching female cockney accent like a Eunuch with his todger in a vice- 2

2 "Aaaah Rickeeeee"
1 "Wots goin' on?"
2 "Leave it owt"
1 "Wots goin on?"
1 "Aaaah Bianka..."
1 "'Ello princess"
2 "Leave it owt"
2 "Oh my gawd..." Cue ending credits

Katy and Liam.....

I just enjoy different types of programmes, much more into documentaries and things that happen in real life than watching other people's lives. Like I said, it was all my opinion.

Now I'm not being funny but, I think the loss of me to my family would be every bit as devastating to them as sharon beshenivsky's awful loss was to hers.

I'm not saying that the life tariff would be wrong, but when you join the force you do so with full knowledge (I hope) of what you're signing up to. One of the reasons I never joined the police force or armed forces.

Quite agree, they know what theyre signing up for and we shouldn't provide protection by making killing or maiming a police officer or soldier (ergo the state) an even more serious affair. we dont need deterrents. In fact we spend a lot of money on protective clothing. they know a riot or shrapnell is going to hurt they should buy their own or stop whinging. in fact its their own fault for protecting spineless bafoons like the op

I'm neither spineless nor a bafoon, but you are quite insulting.

Oh come on Frank be reasonable - I think you are a buffoon but I don't think you're spineless.

Vino'sghost: It was a good OP, he has raised a valid moral issue. We cannot value one human life more than another.

I was undecided whether this was an attempt at humour by Vino'sGhost or was he a moron. Needless to say, I didn't find it very humourous.

I think this is a spineless attempt to get 47b not to hunt you down like the dog you are - you've had it matey - you never mess with cobble riding, courgette growing, sun loving expats.
