Can't blame children who have grown up in special schools,  it's unfair and I've never known of any evidence reported regarding that.

I went to a "mainstream" school with a "special needs Unit" up Norton from September 1987 to the end of April 1992, and I'm not kidding when I say that if I hadn't become besties with my ex, I would've walked out at lunch time on the first day and refused to go back the bullying was THAT bad!

Perhaps I should not have used the example of the SEN school; but why do people turn out wrong? Maybe they didnt attend school at all, drug addicts for parents.

I know of a few drug addicts that have had their children taken away. But my point is we live ammong people with severe troubles and they dont get the help that they need.

Delirium could certainly be a cause, and not the fault of the patient, but is this really that common or what people think of when violence towards medics is considered?

 

I'm thinking more of the physically healthy scrotes that throw rocks and stones etc at ambulances and attack medics. Could it be that they think the ambulance contains valuable drugs that they're eager to get their hands on. Just a thought.

A very sensible reply, @Anna B, and those were the scum I was thinking about.

 

The delirium  issue, I would think, is a possible issue, but I wouldn't think it was that common.

It’s a shocking thing, but it’s nothing new. 
 

I recall visiting the Priory Hotel in the late 80s to phone the love of my life. While I was in there a guy collapsed, totally unconscious. So I ended up phoning an ambulance, rather than my beloved.

 

The ambulance crew were quick on the scene, but wouldn’t enter the pub without a police escort. It was policy at the time, because too many crews had been lured to pubs and ambushed.

 

Inexplicable really.

Aside from actual legit mental illness I cant understand it.

Some people are just nasty I'm afraid.

I would bet that too much alcohol is the main cause for these stupid actions and for much more anti social behaviour.

Its not the cause - plenty of people manage to get drunk without behaving like this. If you behave like this there is something wrong with you.

True on both counts.

Quite scary to think that some of those who do this are the parents of tomorrow.

 

Even scarier,  some are Parents of today,  good role models,  NOT.

That's sad and probably bang on too.

Well as we all know,  now the crews are wearing body cams, so when they are been assaulted ect,  hopefully it will be good evidence for the Police to bring charges and put them in front of a judge to get their just deserves.

Won't happen, the assaults are almost always done by kids, and even though a kid can get arrested from the age of 10, the law seemingly can't or won't do anything to young scrotes.

 

All they have to do is "no comment" in an interview with the Plod, and they get away.

 

I know that from 30 odd years of watching The Bill
