In times gone by having a body cam would have made my job easier to prove a point and may have stopped one or two of my actions. However in genera...

Whichever way you attempt to spi this story regarding the two Kiwis, anyone with a grain of sense never attacks the local plod even though they may be the most irritating obnoxious xenophobic people you have ever met.
