Admin Team Sir Penguin 648 Posted April 18, 2015 Admin Team Share Posted April 18, 2015 Quite a chilling video I've just come across on youtube. Shows the importance of our airwaves handsets and its features. I do wonder what will happen in 2016 though.. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
millfield 12 Posted April 18, 2015 Share Posted April 18, 2015 I have to say as a dispatcher the red button gives me a heart palpertations every single time. What a horrendous situation for the officers, with nothing but a baton and some stingy spray for protection! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

QuiteSpecial 10 Posted April 18, 2015 Share Posted April 18, 2015 That emergency button statistic is pretty shocking... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Otee 41 Posted April 18, 2015 Share Posted April 18, 2015 CS was a good tactical option in that circumstance. Wish we had the full footage, would be useful. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mike88 + 257 Posted April 18, 2015 Share Posted April 18, 2015 I'd like to see the unedited video. We're kidding ourselves if we think training and kit given to the average British officer can stop a motivated attacker with a knife. It's more like no one got stabbed because the offender didn't actually want to fight. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BlueRedBlue 20 Posted April 19, 2015 Share Posted April 19, 2015 It's reassuring that there is plenty of talk about the replacement seeing as it's so near............. Wait. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AnthonyB + 451 Posted April 19, 2015 Share Posted April 19, 2015 Wish we had the full footage, would be useful. I'd like to see the unedited video. . The fact that so much footage was available was because the SNT was being shadowed by BBC's Neighbourhood Blues daytime reality TV series - it's off Iplayer at the moment, but I bet it's been ripped and is somewhere on the net, I think it's Series 5. Worth watching, I saw it when it first went out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

morek54 695 Posted April 19, 2015 Share Posted April 19, 2015 Could it be that tracksuits actually lower ones IQ? I don't know - do you wear one at all? 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dash 32 Posted April 19, 2015 Share Posted April 19, 2015 I don't know - do you wear one at all? I recognise your attempt at wit or humour, lesser people might throw their toys out of the pram and decide not to respond or engage. On a more serious note, I am always wondering if there is a connection in what one might perceive as a lazy attitude to dress and if this would correlate to ones attitude to engagement with society?
