georgethedog   10 #13 Posted September 25, 2018 Considering recent events with numerous stabbings in Sheffield I think it was a perfectly reasonable response from SYP. They handled it well. Well done SYP.   I was talking to a couple last week who have grandson at one of the better schools in Sheffield.  The grandson, walks from any confrontation because of the number of knifes that kids carry.  Correct response, sadly.  And if they did not respond and there was a death, who would be blamed.  The police cannot win Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Share this content via...
