artic 595 Posted October 15, 2008 Report Share Posted October 15, 2008 Few weeks back there was an episode of sky-cops,the eye in the sky was looking for poachers decimating the fallow in Londons east-end,they got a shout some guys had been spotted with rifles on parkland,hovered above a few guys with a deer and rifles,kept them there as loads of plod huffed-and-puffed over a few muddy fields from their vehicles,guys were 100% legit and were culling excess animals,well done sherlock You will find that they didn't inform the land owner. Member of public saw one of them in the woods and called the police. Quote Link to post

markdog 18 Posted October 15, 2008 Report Share Posted October 15, 2008 you right to be careful i live right in the middle of where it was filmed and the new sgt wants nothing more than to really hammer a running dog man, he has a column in the local rag and does nothing but rant and rave about how scummy dog men are, virtually says all dog men are farm thieves. went into his police station for shotgun renewal and there is massive poster up with his crackdown priority list and top of it was poaching ?!

hogie 103 Posted October 15, 2008 Report Share Posted October 15, 2008 I think the police do a good job, well around my way, lets face it when we need them we phone them!!! Police will always be slagged off, this was due back to the 's pre PACE. Batons were used much more freely on members of the public who stepped out of line! and the media only printing off bad news about them, still nothing has changed! They are in a very stressfull job which isn't easy, they are under paid, under staffed. Could you do their job? Bet there are a few on here who would, or even have tried to get into the police force, or who are in the police force! The police you see out in the rurals are RURAL POLICE OFFICERS. They do not go into the town unless needed. Their patch is the rurals, so when you say "GO AND CATCH PROPER CRIMINALS, LEAVE US ALONE RUNNING OUR DOGS" Well they are DOING JUST THAT, pattrolling their patch hopeing to catch someone!! or maybe not, due to the paperwork involved lol...... Stay Safe.......... the police are all a pack of wankers and are fat lazy b*****ds Quote Link to post

Im 31 years old, forklift driver. Im just educated. See once you get caught by the police you then become a little more educated, just like a missed fox, it gets educated! Quote Link to post
artic 595 Posted October 16, 2008 Report Share Posted October 16, 2008 I would just like to add, the Hunting Act is upon us, and still on this site and others people are putting up pictures of their dogs catching hares, deer, fox saying "SHOT AND RETRIEVED" come on yeah right!, its them who are ruining it for others! The chav lurcherman as Lurchergirl stated who dont give toss go out poaching in gangs, driving their vehicles over land, bragging what they did, how they drove on the land, using threatening behaviour what they would do to people if they get caught and how they got away from the cops etc............. Its all this that attracts the police, RSPCA to their homes or area's. So when one states this and debates the problem, people then think your a copper. There are probably loads of police watching this who do hunt and who dont and are on here for whatever reasons. Like i have said before, why bragg, a proffesional poacher remains silient!!

artic 595 Posted October 16, 2008 Report Share Posted October 16, 2008 (edited) i'm w/ the Irishman on this one. you and your gang of government thieves might take from me tonight when i'm alone, but come tommorrow i'll take everything you have and everything you're gonna have. i'm patient, and hold a grudge. POP's less of the "YOU" like i said above. And its your behaviour that breeds behaviour on these sites. Enough members on here know who i am, thats not a police officer for one, but a genuine man, who helps others in this society. As for the hunting, well my family are land owners here in England and we hunt all year round and are passionate with what we do. Edited October 16, 2008 by artic Quote Link to post
