Police Brutality
Goodness me I thought, here we go again, an IPCA investigation has begun against the police for alleged police brutality whilst apprehending some youths in a stolen car.
I’m not going to talk about whether the police were right or wrong, I want to mention the person(s) who laid the complaint ‘on behalf of’! Who are these anonymous do-gooders that take it upon themselves to complain about every perceived offence that has apparently occured?
It seems that NZ has its fair-share of these people who make ‘media’ complaints because they want to be offended ‘on behalf of’ the so-called offended person whether or not that person is actually offended. Give me strength!
Let’s have some more detail in the media explaining who is laying these complaints. No personal details are necessary just let us know if it’s the offenders that are laying the complaints or some busy-body with nothing else to do.
