PAP Spin - Police was outnumbered

[eatshitndie]

Maybe the SPF follows the SAF doctrine: you cannot engage enemies unless you outnumber them three to one.

for encirclement, 6 to 1 with extra 2 in support. :p

 

[blindswordsman]

If the COI panel have any brains, this bs about being outnumbered would have been torn apart.

There wasn't 400 protestors then. 90 law enforcers, most of them have firearms can't control 150 crowd, that's a serious concern on the capability of our SPF.

And communication radios and phones were not working in crisis.

How has our billions being spent on the SPF?

SG in real shit hole with such SPF. Why didn't they use their firearms to fire warning shots? When gang fights erupted in the 1950s, one warning shot and all gangsters ran for their lives. Gang fights used real parangs. Ah nehs used only projectiles.

Maybe they were praying inside the ambulance: to Allah, Buddha and Jesus.

Radio comms set also kena jam that night, so better pray and listen to the instructions of the commander in heaven.

Allah, Jesus and Buddha off day on night of riot.

 

[Asura]

Outnumbered. Oh even SPF also cannot handle the increasing population?

 

[steffychun]

Have the guts to state your name when you reduce my points!

Haha this is really funny, got such thing as having 90 police officers but didnt feel like 90 and thought only 9 around, proof that must be all hiding so cannot be seen...

The Straits Times.....

The question of how many police officers there were compared with rioters on Dec 8 came up when former police commissioner Tee Tua Ba asked Assistant Superintendent of Police Jonathan Tang why he had not "engaged" the crowd when he reached the accident site.

.........

ASP Tang said he later managed to connect with other police officers, bringing his total manpower to nine police officers and four APOs. But as much as he wanted to start arresting the rioters at that point, the crowd still outmatched his small force.

"With this number of officers, we would not have been able to take decisive action to restore the peace," he said. "Yes, we were very, very outnumbered."

When asked later if he knew that there were actually some 90 police officers dealing with the rioters that night, he replied that he was not aware of these other officers as overloaded police radio and mobile networks had made communications with colleagues difficult.

"It definitely didn't feel like there were 90 police officers," he said, noting that even with that number, he would still consider the force outnumbered by rioters.

They are not hiding. They are just positioning themselves strategically.

Matas scare their swee swee wives kena screwed by tua kee ang mohs if they sacrificed in their tour of duties.

So if there are 400 rioters we need 2400 poodles? I think 50 pit bulls will do the job.

50? I think just let loose 5 more than enough

I hope they don't practise take cover when there are human victims. In this case, the police cars and ambulance burnt are properties, if human burnt will they still be taking cover?

True, 5 rottweilers also can, so big size the 400 ah neh see already sure scared and run off..

They could have just lobbed a few tear gas grenades... very efficient at crowd dispersion.

How expensive can one of those be? Surely they're cheaper than the repair bill for the destroyed vehicles.

And do you really need to write a report for using batons and tear gas? Even if so, how hard can writing a standard template report be? You're not writing a novel or a thesis... you're simply describing the incident with factual details. It's a brain-dead task. You probably won't need to write more than 2 A4 sheets.

Our poodles are really nincompoops. I bet they got complacent when Wong Kan Seng - an utterly unqualified and talentless man - was the Home Affairs Minister. Stop boasting about your little triumphs with horrible acting on CrimeWatch and just focus on doing your bloody job.

Besides the riot at Little India, there was also a robbery at the same time... taxpayers were robbed.

sinkie police to me, argh ptui!

They probably forgot how to shoot.

 

[GoldenPeriod]

Do you know what this means and what they are telling you indirectly?

1 unarmed keling is equal to about 5 SPF armed officers.

So,

1 armed Indonesian soldier = How many SAF soldiers?

When I tell people to run for their lives in the event of a war, I am not being facetious.

This is the cue for the "cop sleeping in police car" pic...

 

[shittypore]

If rioters all riot at the same time there is nothing much
the Police can do.

 

[Tuayapeh]

True, 5 rottweilers also can, so big size the 400 ah neh see already sure scared and run off..

This reminds me....

Wtf happened to the so called K-9 units in the useless SPF har?


Too expensive?? Need to cancel because need to cut costs? I always remembered how spectacular a show those huge alsatians put up bringing down weapon wielding types..... Bring ten of them out into a crowd of these fucking nehs, u see whether these bastards try anything funny......

Sure disperse......


Why nobody asking this type of questions.....always see dogs in crowd control..... the dog lovers in stinkapore only know how to pet dog and not out them to work??
