Because they're criminals.

That's a bit broad brushed, not all coppers are bent!

Honest as the day's long, Guv'nor. "Pushed? No Your Honour, the Gentleman tripped."

Maybe it's largely down to how you conduct yourself in dealings with RMP and they're not there to make friends. Disregarding SIB; long, long ago during the Cold war of the early 80's and on attachment to provost coys in NI, there were those that would drive without insurance, and those caught visiting OOB areas in L'Derry. In the main and certainly in the Province , they were a good bunch dealing with and attending some of the worst IRA activities. Idiots everywhere in the Army, but RMP were not the worst by a long chalk. Disregarding SIB.

If you got nicked for drunken driving, tough shit, if you get locked up for drunkenness type stuff, it is always better than getting a beatin of GCP for the same thing - or shot as I recall one poor bugger, so what's your problem?

So, seriously what's your problem with RMP, Oh, and BTW, never did mind being called a monkey, if you understand where it comes from, neither would you!

Not interested in hearing deranged bleating from morons, reasoned arguments please. I suspect the Rabid 'Monkey Haters' are the knuckle dragging types that can't string logical arguments together anyway.

Now't wrong with the RMP......but the AAC are cunts?

Ex RMP pilots are generally cunts.... It must be an AGC thing, ex SPS pilots are cunts too.

And the jocks always seem to think they're victims so it cuts both ways really doesn't it?

I have read the majority of posts here.

I will be joining the RMP for what it SHOULD represent. Hate me or not I will do the job how it's supposed to be done (being a damn good soldier at first) whilst being proud about it. Does sound like a lot of fucking assholes are in RMP merley for the "power". My ideal career path would be RMPCP. But my love for the para's is just the same.
