STUPID AND IGNORANT?: True that in matters like these ‘Police’ shall: (i) ‘…First be seen as a Law enforcer: (ii) …As ‘Protecting and serving’ the citizens: and (iii) …As ‘…Peace Maker.’
They shall ‘APPROACH’ their duty with, inter alia: (a) ‘…TACT: and (b) …DISCRETION.’ Where these are lacking, then expect incidents like: ‘The reckless ‘…Denfield ‘Tody’ Thomas’ Murder in Liberta over a ‘…BABY BAG’ [October 2006].
Today, it is over ‘…Handing over of a Child.’ Police officers who do not know the ‘LAW’ and the ‘DIFFERENCE’ between ‘CRIME’ and ‘TORT’ or ‘…CrimInal offence and ‘…Domestic Issues,’ would always be seen as acting ‘…STUPID AND IGNORANT.’ Professionally, speaking, this ‘ARREST’ seem unlawful and these ‘Charges’ will be ‘DIsmissed.’
WHY?: ‘…An officer enforcing law ‘NOT IN THE EXECUTION OF DUTY,’ could never adduce evidence that a ‘CRIME’ was committed, and that he was ‘…INVESTIGATING IT.’
Moreover, when officers are allowed to ‘ENTER’ onto ‘…PRIVATE PREMISES,’ when ‘TOLD’ to leave, they ‘…MUST LEAVE.’
The occupier of ‘…Private Property,’ reserves the ‘RIGHT’ to use ‘…REASONABLE FORCE,’ in ‘…EJECTING ANY PERSON,’ including ‘…POLICE OFFICERS’ without ‘LEGAL AUTHORITY (Warrant) or some ‘…JUSTIFIABLE REASONS,’ to investigate crime.
If there was a ‘…SHOUT OF MURDER’ or ‘GUNSHOT SOUND,’ then he needs ‘…NO LEGAL AUTHORITY.
However, ‘Only a ‘STUPID OFFICER,’ will enter when he heard a ‘…GUNSHOT FIRED.’
If they know these things, then there would less need for ‘…CONFRONTATION AND UNLAWFUL ARREST.’ Screw up your darn faces, it is for ‘…CITIZENS and …POLICE’ to know. ‘…NO LEGAL FEES.’
