Morons.

Utter bufoons.

Two police pistols have gone missing while being couriered from north of Auckland to Wellington.

The police-issue Glock pistols - sent from Warkworth station in December - have not yet reached the police armoury in Wellington.

“We can’t jump to conclusions here. All we can really say is they are missing,” said Inspector Tom Ireland, police operations and projects manager.

Here I’ll jump to conclusion for you, you can’t hit shit with them, you keep UDing in the locker room and you can’t even keep track of them, you shouldn’t have them!

Give them back, heres a little wooden stick, go nuts.

Maybe we could have a donuts for guns exchange program.

Len Richards is a fuckwit.

When you get to the bottom of the hole STOP DIGGING you Harry Stamper wannabe.

A man who swung a megaphone at a protester (which is code for smacked him in the head) in a scuffle outside the Labour Party conference says it never hit the target.

 Well thats alright then, you only TRIED to assault him. You fucked it up so its all ok. Yeah….. no. Being an incompetent lying thug is not a valid defence. Lets just picture the spittle flecked response from Helens gang of sneering front bench back bench bully boys if it had been a National Party confrence where protesters were being beaten up by delegates and arrested for trying to stop shall we.

Way to make it go away dickless.

Len Richards ladies and gentlemen, the best delegate National could buy.

VOTE LABOUR

Or we’ll smack you in the head bro!

Labour is going to pieces so fast that people are getting hit by shrapnel… and megaphones. Not a party that responds well to presure.

Get used to it.

Is anyone running a book on who the next labour party member to assault will be and what excuse will be used to not toss his ass in jail?

Anyone else got a problem with a labour party delegate openly assualting a member of the public then casually walking back through  police lines while the cops arrest the guy who tried to stop the offender?

No politicised policing to see here, move a long.

The New Zealand Police should be disarmed.

For reasons of public safety.

These pricks are just plain too crappy marksmen to be permitted to run round in public. “Up to a dozen rounds” at one dog and you can’t hit it at virtaul point blank range?

Then having heard the shots from TV1’s footage my professional assesment would be more than one shooter and the better part of a couple of mags going down range. Of course it wasn’t ON a range, it was in a public street. The police claim that there was “no danger to the public” is just utter utter bullshit. Without having templated and surveyed the area you have no glue where those rounds are going and given your obvious inability to hit what you’re aiming at the chance of smacking off something you didn’t know was there increase with every jerk of the trigger. And there was clearly a lot of trigger jerking going on.

The technical name for the sort shooting I heard was a “yippie”.

And to that the number of stories I have from friends who were or are cops about UD’s in the changing rooms and various other “incidents” I say we should no more be giving cops firearms than we should over sugared hyperactive ten year olds.

From observation almost the same thing.

You guys suck.

In my world we hit what we aim at, its called being a professional. But then in the army we didn’t collect taxes for Cullen so we had time to train.

Crime is at an “all time low”

Dear Leader says it is so. All peasants now rejoice!

So this is clearly a typing error of some kind, a really long, highly detailed, file recorded typing error:

Dear Sir

Re: Common Assault - File No: 070127/4955

I am writing to you with regard to your report on 24th January 2007, as you were travelling in your vehicle registration No. [DELETED] you were punched in the left jaw by the passenger in vehicle, Registration No. DNU511.

Due to the high number of priority crimes occurring in the Balmoral area in the past several months, I have been unable to assign your complain to an investigator at this stage.

Your complaint will be investigated in due course and an investigator will be in contact with you at that time.

Should you wish to discuss this matter further please do not hesitate to contact me at the Balmoral police station, phone DDI (09) 631-1026

Yours faithfully,

M. Dalton
Acting Sargeant MDG874
Enquiry Office
Balmoral Police

This is not a case of some guy wandering in, saying: “hey, some unknown guy smacked me in the head”. This complaint - characterised by Acting Sgt. Dalton as a “report” - was backed up with photographic evidence and two witnesses.

Do you want us to go round and arrest the guy ourselves, or what?

No, seriously, at what level do you guys just simply NOT carry out the job, because you’re out of staff? Which I find difficult to reconcile with your former Police Commissioner (the patsy Clark slid in by stitching up Doone) said that he had all the staff he needed… right before the election.

Politics, like comedy, is all about the timing. Only “funny” in a different way.

If you, the New Zealand Police, are quite simply NOT able to protect us, what is our alternative? The Government has clearly created a vacuum that can only be filled by something you don’t want.

I you don’t, wont or can’t protect us, we’ll do it ourselves.

What choice do we have?

oddly enough when we do protect ourselves the cops seem to have resources to SPARE!
