Aw, that was nice to see. I wish more cops were like this, it would go such a long way towards repairing then public trust in them.

Yeah, this guy definitely needs some psychiatric help, not punishment. Involuntary comittal for six months is probably the best best - he needs treatment.

Testicular fortitude! Love it!

I suspect that some people join because they want to make a positive difference to society. Others might just fancy a uniform and an air of authority. It's also a fairly secure job so I can certainly see why people would be attracted to the force. I wouldn't do it myself though!

It is an offence in the UK and you can be heavily fined for "wasting police time". Quite rightly so, our emergency services are already stretched too far without having to deal with pranks and pointless calls.

There's always the possibility that inmates become institutionalized and can't deal with life outside prison on release. Maybe people just don't know what to do with themselves on the outside as they won't be able to get a job all that easily.

The police would do well to take some tips from psychiatric nurses who deal with patients like this every day. Training in the correct way of dealing with the mentally ill should be mandatory.

Thankfully, I've never discovered anything disturbing online but I'd have no hesitation in reporting it if I did. In any case, I'd be really worried that there would be a record that I'd visited this page on my computer and wouldn't want to get into trouble. Anything like child porn or cyber...

That really was awful wasn't it! And then Renton starts getting hallucinations involving the dead bady whilst he's in withdrawal... Maybe Trainspotting should be shown in schools as part of their antidrugs education?

I'd love to be able to make missing limbs grow back. I know that prosthetics can be fantastic these days and we'll be seeing transplants in the near future but it would be so cool to make this happen.

A dog or some martial arts lessons are probably the best way to go. In the UK, we have little way of legally protecting ourselves at all but "karate chopping" intruders seems to be viewed as a self defence move rather than an attack.

Prison employees deserve to have their safety guaranteed and I cannot thing why on earth this criminal was allowed to be alone with the woman. I hope she gets the compensation which she definitely deserves.

I would imagine that this is the case. Officers have to see and hear about some pretty gruesome things and it is unreasonable to expect anyone to be able to cope with this without having had the appropriate training. Certainly in the UK, compassionate leave and therapy is available to cops who...

Here in the UK, cyberbullies are frequently prosecuted. Judges seem to be keen to make an example of these people and the cases always seem to reach the national newspapers. Luckily, it seems to be taken very seriously but it does still occur with alarming frequency.

Aw, that's lovely! It's good to know that thy're not all bad guys at all!
