I most certainly do not, i'll wager those young rascals would have the gold buckles off my shoes and sold before James is back from having the roller valeted.

Nah. They're mostly out of work actors.

Where people on here get angry that cyclists all get labelled the same, and they want to be disassociated with RLJing, bonnet thumping activists, I find it worrying that all police are bad apples in some peoples opinion. Imagine saying people were "all the same" because of skin colour or religion? Its unacceptable and totally against common sense.

I think conformational bias may be at play here. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Confirmation_bias

I totally agree. Whether it's justified or not, it's worrying.

Also paradoxical that One of Rigby's killers has been successful in getting 5 prison officers at Hmp Belmarsh suspended when they had to legitimately use force whilst intervening in an incident involving him .

The camera footage of this shows no wrong doing, but the politics of the situation means that those 5 officers still remain suspended from duty. (That's how conditioning works)

Now that is upsetting. Please tell me they're still on full pay-benefits and it was a non-disciplinary decision.
