Police are worse than terrorists. These Khaki wearing MORONS are nothing but disgrace to society. Its not that 90 percent of cops are parasites but 100% of them are rascals!!

If 90% of the police were worse than terrorists, then India would be like one of our neighbours right now(read pakistan,bangladesh,sl). Police have a thankless job. Don't make judgements based on what you see in the movies.US has programs for their officers to visit psychiatrists when they get into high pressure situations. Notice how you to react to high pressure situations and imagine having to face that 24 by 7 for years together. You would be a mental mess too. Besides, you have to think like a rascal to catch a rascal.
Go home brother and enjoy a glass of wine and get some sound sleep. The police have your back.

yes... and he served the country very well . More so than the sorry bunch of s/w engineers who do nothing but whine at all the troubles they see every day. People are like a dog that sits at its masters feet and whines when he steps on its tail. They are indifferent and do not understand the real issues that a country like ours faces.

I agree Raviteja. I'm sure there are great officers out there. Unfortunately, their greatness is shrouded in the predominance of innefficiency and corruption that has, no doubt, eaten into the system. It is easy for us to sit here and whine about the situation - the whining only comes from a deep sense of frustration with the policy system. However, I think the media would do well to equally highlight the success stories of the polic so that citizens begin to feel like there's hope. The media loves to demonize the police, and that's how public opinion is formed too. However, I will say one thing - the polic on the road do NOT behave like a police force. I have lived overseas for many years and can tell you that when you see a policeman overseas you really feel secure! Here, I have seen police vans blatantly break traffic rules. One almost rammed into me - not because it was chasing a criminal - its light was not even flashing. It was just careless driving on the part of the police team. The police needs a makeover to regain the trust of fellow citizens.

I agree. You can not paint everyone with the same brush. There are good people and bad people in every profession. You hear more about police due to the nature of their responsibility and the external pressures. Even here, I can't get rid of the feeling that there may be someone behind the Sean, directing.
