From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] OK - I've sat quietly on the sidelines reading most of the to's and fro's on this. We all know IG has his Ups and Downs in moods, but generally go along with it for entertainment even though he frequently ( sad but true ) makes some sense. However, this last lot has prodded me just a bit too much to let go without comment - not on the issues - but on the surrounding danger-zone. IG , I accept you are also a shooter, and many of your comments / remarks have some sense to them, but - and I have checked for paranoia, negative this time - are you just winding the list up so your mates in the trade ( AFO or whatever ) can reel the guys in one at a time come renewal time ? I know - you're going to say - nasty supicious mind - but there again, they also say " once a copper always a copper" and I have to admit yes I was there in uniform many many years ago. Seen that , been there, got the tee-shirt. The " Mind-set " you write in may not seem out of the ordinary to you, or to your fellow officers, but do please be assured - it is not only noticeable but well-noted by those of the joe-public who once would gladly have stood alongside you in any affray - but sadly no longer. I speak generically of course - I still have many trusted friends in the force / service - who knows, you may even be one of them :-) Happy Christmas guys - don't forget the Countryside March next Spring.
