Northamptonshire Police - Young people and PCSOs

Do you know what a PCSO does? Do you know what powers they have? This new video launched by Northamptonshire Police Authority and Police, shows young people being given the opportunity to take part in an interactive workshop, meeting Police Community Support Officers (PCSOs) and gaining a better understanding of their roles and powers.

Young people take part in a role reversal with the students wearing PCSO uniform and adopting the role of an officer, and the PCSOs taking the role of young people, the aim being to see things from the opposite point of view.

Well I have huge amounts of respect for the PCSO's, sometimes they can be much better at police officers at dealing with situations because they have a much better understanding of the individual area they police. We were helped out in Kingsthorpe when we had allot of arson/hate attacks towards us and our home, up until we moved we received huge amounts of support from PCSO's, especially Gavin Flower, we owe you so much for helping us!!

You can ask for someone's name and adress, you don't have to fucking give it though. The only people who give their name are those who are ignorant of the law, which is most poeple because school funnily enough teaches you how to be a subserviant drone and nothing about your rights. You dont have the power to search people, I'm not even sure if you are allowed to do it if there is a S60 CJPOA in place? Reasonable force- if you've had the training ONLY. defending the government and coorperations

wrong ! We are NOT obliged to give ANY information at all, so stop the lies and power  trip! I advise anyone who wants to know HOW to deal with police to visit the "Anti terrorists" videos on You Tube for the RIGHT answers!
