    Keeping yourself safe in your home

    How does one legally and effectively keep oneself safe in their own home? I live with my female fiance and sometimes it would be nice to feel safe and secure in our home. But how can I legally protect us without getting into any kind of trouble. I live in the UK so guns are no an option neither...

    How frustrated do you get?

    That bugs me too, on Saturday this teenager was with his mum in the town centre where I live and he dropped some litter and she immediately told him to pick it up and then slapped him round the back of his head for littering! Made me laugh so much. Ahh thanks for clearing that up, for years I...

    How frustrated do you get?

    I am glad that I ma not the only one disgusted by this, it really annoys me as it is so dangerous and nobody seems to give a dam! If they were speeding then they would not stand a chance, they would be taken down in a second. But because they are not speeding they seem to be left alone even...

    Weapons in the home and laws

    What are your local laws regarding weapons in the home used for self defence? I don't mean uns, I mean things like bats and knives etc. What are the laws, in the UK keeping something as simple as a bat can be an arrestable offence, unless you have the proper equipment that might go with the bat...

    Driving license?

    Ahh I see, I did not think of the insurance thing to be honest, that makes a lot of sense.

    Driving license?

    It is not a fear thing, when I was growing up I lived in a really small town in Oxford and there was virtually no point in driving, I then moved to the city where it would have been quicker to hop to work than drive.I am starting lessons this year though.

    Driving license?

    That would make sense, I genuinely thought that in the UK you needed a full and valid license as when I applied to become an officer that it what was on my form but apparently the laws have changes since the, it was a while ago mind you!

    Do You Legally Have to Roll Down a Window More than 2 Inches?

    I did not know you did not actually have to talk to them and that you could just give them your lawyers card, I thought you actually had to converse and co-operate otherwise you could be arrested. I would roll the window down though, I think people are more likely to be nice to you if you are...

    Ahhh texas!

    Ha ha I think that is brilliant, he might think twice before being such a little thug next time. My grandma had a rifle which I always thought was really cool, but she was in the army.

    Driving license?

    This might sound like a stupid question, but do you need to hold a driving license in order to become a police officer? I am not sure of the rules anywhere in the world because some people say you do, some say you don't. I would just like a little clarification from anywhere!

    How frustrated do you get?

    How annoyed (if at all) do you get when you see someone breaking the law and nothing being done about it? The most common crime walking down my street seems to be making calls on the mobile whilst driving and I have to say it annoys me so much because what is the point of having the law if it...

    A coworker put his hands around my neck today at work

    Oh my word I hope this has been dealt with and that you were not abused any further. It is physical assault, he assaulted you both physically and verbally so I would recommend calling the police should it ever happen again. No one should be made to feel unsafe at work and incidents like this...

    Is making homophobic remarks an arrestable offence where you are?

    I agree, they either pass it off as a joke and say "people need to get a sense of humour" or they make a contribution or appearance to the appropriate community and it has gone away. Two prime examples of that are Katie Hopkins and Jeremy Clarkson, but at least Clarkson apologises, even if it is...

    Is making homophobic remarks an arrestable offence where you are?

    I have seen people making hateful remarks about race or religion be prosecuted under the racial and religious hatred act but I have never seen anyone be arrested or prosecuted under the public order act which is a little bit sad as I have experienced a great deal of abuse from street preachers.

    Is making homophobic remarks an arrestable offence where you are?

    Ha ha sadly it is not illegal, I know a few people that I would arrest if it were! No, you are right that there is not enough room and not enough resources but I think hate speech should be taken a lot more seriously than it is. I think you can try and educate people, but some people do not want...

    Re: Article: Missouri town responds to officer exodus after election of black female Oh my god, when I saw this I thought it was one of those misreported stories but after reading it I am just appalled! Is being racist really so important to you that you would be willing to quit your job over...
