Would anyone else have been tempted to get nasty with that PCSO????

I found it outrageous, I must say.
My reaction would have been much the same as the photographer, if I was lucky ! Hard to see how he kept his temper.
The whole thing is sad indictment of what we are becoming
Makes me glad to have grown up in the 50's and 60's. I have real concerns about the future based on this kind of attitude from those supposedly in authority. Authority is not granted by a job as this person seems to think, but as a respect and regard for a job well done, personally and 'institutionally'. Any respect for this person rapidly evaporates the more he talks himself into a corner and disappears altogether with the 'telling' comeback of 'Shut Up !,. shut up'.
<sigh> I am getting more and more cross as I write, so I had better stop here !
