It used to be the case these characters would get weeded out pretty quickly by the psych tests and evaluations, or put in roles where they don't have to deal with the public.

What is also dangerous is when the Police start pursuing political agendas, deciding which law-abiding groups they will harass (eg firearm owners) and which criminal groups they will give a free ride (eg anti-social behaviour).

In the UK ACPO is practically a political pressure group.

The only police I ever met were like Swiss SWAT or something. The freaks pulled their guns on us walking home with our airsoft rifles over our shoulders. Some stupid bitch called them and said there was a bunch of kids shooting each other with real weapons. Fucking ignorant cunt.

Anyway, most of them laughed when they found out it was airsoft. One douche with a fuckin' French mustache still kept his weapon unholstered, it was bad enough he made our little friend piss himself. Douche...

Right well, they were really cool about it and said they normally confiscate and they'd let us go with our weapons.
so they are freaks because someone called saying kid were using firearms in a neighbourhood and they drew their guns? Sounds pretty normal to me if I though you were armed I'd be pretty over the top too. I'm not gonna die and the first thing through my mind isn't going to be "maybe they are airsoft guns.."

Same thing happened to me years ago... you've got to realize, from a distance, airsoft guns look pretty real.  Especially when they are designed to look real. Even with the orange tips.  (I've read of criminals attaching orange tips to real firearms to confuse police)
Yes but maybe you missed the part where I explained later on that it had been TWO YEARS that I had been playing openly in that neighbor hood and it never bothered anybody before. In fact most people would ask if they could shoot our guns sometimes.

Then one day some bitch comes along and starts moaning when she sees LITTLE KIDS with oranged tipped weapons that go PEW PEW PEW.

What does she think we are MS13 or something?

So she reported something that she thought should have been reported (And according to you it should have been when the police said they should have confiscated it)? She's hardly a bitch - in fact I hope the day someone is holding me up she just happens to be poking her sticky nose around my neighbourhood and calls the police. I know a lot of others wouldn't. Why don't you just put it down in the inconvenience list and let it go. It's not like they through you on the ground and put a round through your leg.

I believe it depends on the character of the officer. Some are power hungry nutjobs who use their role as a stress relief whilst others are normal people just doing a job. Most of the officers I know are normal people who have nothing out against the world and nearly every other policing student I know is just a normal person, not to mention good hearted people.
I think you already summed it up. I've had encounters with police for stuff like speeding cause I was running late and they've been really good about it. I've been pulled over for an RBT (I hadn't been drinking) and he was a real arse about it... just depends on who you get.

According to wonderful Wiki Swiss Law:
"It is illegal to carry any airsoft weapons in a public place, however it is permissible to transport them directly between a player's home and an event site."

I went through an RBT here, one Police officer was waving me through, the other waving me in. It was pretty obvious they wanted me to drive on so they could nail me for failing to stop.

On the other hand one night I was doing 126 in a 110 zone on the way to a gig, car full of gear and my 3 passengers drinking beers (I was sober, until I got to the venue and started drinking) and a cop in his late 40's I'd guess followed me for about 1km and pulled me over.

Got out, walked up to him and he asked why I was speeding and if I knew I was, I told him I was speeding and was running late for a gig. He gave me a suspended fine, told me to have a good gig and mentioned there were other patrols out so I should just be a bit more careful and was really friendly about the whole thing. Ace guy.

They are needed and mostly are pretty decent ppl. All good over here. No complaints about them.

Some ppl just have to drive way way too fast and often make completely pointless and even dangerous passing and after few mins I see all of them pulled to the roadside and being handed speeding tickets. Bhuahahha.

Same thing happened to me years ago... you've got to realize, from a distance, airsoft guns look pretty real.  Especially when they are designed to look real. Even with the orange tips.  (I've read of criminals attaching orange tips to real firearms to confuse police)
Yes but maybe you missed the part where I explained later on that it had been TWO YEARS that I had been playing openly in that neighbor hood and it never bothered anybody before. In fact most people would ask if they could shoot our guns sometimes.

Then one day some bitch comes along and starts moaning when she sees LITTLE KIDS with oranged tipped weapons that go PEW PEW PEW.

Where about in Sydney?

Also, I like our cops..
Aussie cops are nice people, really friendly and helpful. Taiwanese cops think they're the shit when they are so fucking incompetent.

Thought of this thread when I saw an article on the local news this morning concerning my citys constabulary.  They have failed to improve the rating given to them by the HMIC (Her Majesty's Inspectorate of Constabulary).  It currently stands at "poor."  Keep up the good work boys!
