Police need to be given more powers so they are respected - rather than constantly having to worry about doing too much or not doing enough.
I completely agree 100% with Phil about the sub-cultures and how they have materialised over time and there is nothing we can do to change people in that culture now - only to try and change the younger generation who have not been sucked into the culture into being decent human beings. However taking all this into account, if these morons in this culture knew that the Police wouldn't take sh*t from them - they wouldn't f*ck with them. Instead the Police have one of the most frustrating jobs in the world to do where they can't do anything right.
