Re: Saps Task Force- a Force to recon with
i have met some excellent young officers
I just fear the system will either break them or let them down before they get to do any real good for the force
K9 shot with a club last year, grabbed their R5s out the vehicle and both didnt work
something about broken firing pins or springs?
very sad that government doesnt support these guys, but then again private security carries a large portion of their mandate now and pays government to do it
bigger private security industry means less need to employ officers (cost to state) and a bigger revenue
Political parties should as what the ruling party generates in security industry taxations (insurance too) we would then get a picture of why they have let saps deteriorate and why they actually have no inclination to combat crime effectively

Re: Saps Task Force- a Force to recon with
Not up to date about the inner politics of the STF etc. Had seen a unit once in operation with a CIT robbery that took place once. They seemed well organised as they arrived and deployed on the scene. Could not do anything there anymore as the robbers already left, but it seemed to me that every member knew where he was supposed to be and back each other up etc and made sure the crime scene is secure. They were also not "bullying" the public (onlookers), but just stood their ground and ask persons that wanted to interfere to please leave so that the detectives can do their job.
