In the news this week was Robin Porta, a police officer from Devon and Cornwall police force. He looks like your average policeman, stocky; because apparently you don't need a fitness test to join the force nowadays. Only until he stands next to your average man, does it become apparent that he is ridiculously short! 5 foot to be precise. At the beginning of the 90's the height requirement of 5ft10 was abolished. Does anyone else find this strange how there's no apparent difference between a tall and short police officer and their ability to control situations. I believe its only going to antagonise the criminals, yobs and drunks. But if you are worried about the little trooper, be aware he knows martial arts! Which is so useful when chasing a criminal on foot and need to vault a garden fence.
But i ask you, "could the police possibly employ anyone shorter than this terrible excuse for a bobby??" ...yes and she goes by the name of WPC Sue Day, who at 4ft10 is the countries smallest police officer. I'm not sexist, but I don't see the point in the WPC (ladies, i love you, but you have no place in the police force, the only time you should bear a police uniform is in the bedroom.) But this really does sum the British police force up. They aren't serious about fighting crime and controlling our streets. Now im not going to compare the trouble we have in the UK with that of the US but the United States police are hardened crime fighters, who do their job and take no risks, to sum it up "they don't fuck about". Over here the police have been seen to have a weakness and the criminals and even the general public are exploiting it.
As i don't believe these two police officer deserve publicity on my site(but have written a whole post on it....shush u!!), here are the links on their articles
Rant over
Love Chris
