I don't have an anti police agenda. I do criticize them sometimes, but I also defend them when I think they are in the right. I don't see any problem with giving valid and informed criticism when I think they are in the wrong. And it bugs me how they often seem completely willing to listen to criticism from their colleagues, but when we members of the public do it suddenly it's "anti police" and "you wouldn't understand the job". As for police forums, there are one or two I look at from time to time to just get an insight into their perspective and how they view things. Coppers constantly moan that we don't listen to them and we don't see things from their point of view, so sometimes I like to make an effort to listen to them and see it from their point of view. But somehow that's been twisted into yet another reason to call me "anti police".
