    Don't get wrapped up with the messenger and instead, consider the message.
    so what -harvey norman &other retailers offer discounts and special deals to emergency services ,nurses and doctors /dhb personnel .
    In your eyes or the sanctimonious ones are we one the make too.? are we beholden to them ?
    I wont prolong the discussion as its an aside from the primary point. frankly I dont care one iota if maccas decided to give the boys in blue a deal or two -Its SFA in the general scheme of things and pales in comparison with shit going on at the sharp end.If ya dont like what others post dont bloody read it!

    Are those discounts given just because someone is a police officer, or are they offered to members of the police union, which you don't have to be a police officer to join?

    Unite union members, for example, are eligible for an extensive range of discounts and benifits.

    I looked and saw the NZ Nurses Organisation has a range of benifits and discounts too.

    Sworn and non sworn members of police who are part of the Police Union are entitled to a variety of discounts from various retailers/businesses etc which are obtained while out of uniform by members presenting their police union membership at the time of purchase.

    As mentioned before and to reiterate... Police do not receive half price maccas as this went out some years ago!

    We all get that you are ‘challenged’ when it comes to basic comprehension, but even my 11 year old gets it.

    Please feel free not to respond to my posts. They are aimed at a different demographic than you occupy.

    My point stands that all systolic is saying is cops are at risk of becoming compromised if they accept half price/free stuff.

    dont be a grandiose arsehole all your life!.no wonder others on here detest you .
    if you want to breing your 11yr old in as a supporter well all I'll say is the apple never fell far from the tree .
    finally your idol introduced something entirely irrelevant and out of date to the subject and got kicked into touch -cant you accept that .
