Are you on the drink or something? There is no group more accountable for every action they take than the police in this state. There are over 100 oversight bodies and special interest groups who regularly raise issues of concern through parliament, the courts and commissions of inquiry. By all means stop police chasing criminals. It will certainly make cops lives easier but what do you think the criminals will do? Obey the speed limit? Not commit crimes? Criminals regularly steal cars and roar through our streets, more often than not crashing them without the police even being within coee. Despite what you think police pursuits very rarely result in crashes. On any given day across the state there would be over 50 of them and how many crashes are there - maybe 1 in 10,000 and the bulk of them are after the police have stopped pursuing them. There are strict protocols in place the maximise community safety - which is why this particular pursuit was terminated.
Now to the Lindt siege, another subject you have little knowledge of. The Prime Minister had nothing to do with it - no matter who he was, it is a State matter and the Premier has no control over operational police matters and the only person responsible for the devastation as you put it was the filthy criminal who took them hostage. There was absolutely nothing to be gained from him talking with anyone. it would have been another meaningless rant that would've only inflamed him further and potentially led to more deaths.
