Regardless of how it was worded, I like to think I got the gist of it. I have to agree with the sentiment of point made, we get it. Could have been worded better, but understand the general warning.

With regards to the polices use of Twitter and other social media, I think its a great step forwards and am happy to see Forest Hill SNT made it to the party now.

We all have our own unique way of getting our message across, and somehow 99% of the time we get what the other person means.

What has to also be remembered is that policing has moved on a LONG way since the days of a bobby on the beat with a whistle and a length of lignum vitae in their pocket, commanding respect over all walks of life. The dynamic has changed and so has society. Therefore a lot of the officers are in cars and able to respond over a wide area quickly. If they were all on foot people would complain they were in the wrong place and took too long to arrive.

At the end of the day, the general message is be careful out there, and don't make yourself a target.

Maybe some interaction between the SNT and the concerned members of the forum would be a good idea?
