Well, there's a new theory - it's all Cher Lloyd's fault. I suppose what this inarticulate oaf is trying to say is that this talentless X-Factor loser epitomises the money-for-nothing ethic which spurred on the looting spree. She is being portrayed in the press as a superstar and if that is done often enough, then the gullible will believe it and buy her records. Indeed, that has happened. Hers was the no 1 song during the riot season. Moreover, her rise to fame was manufactured by the redundant and equally talentless Cheryl Cole, herself manufactured in a reality TV programme. Nothingness is begetting nothingness.

There were 3 kids on bikes all pedalling as fast as they could on spotting the police. Some police chased the other two cyclists and the one in the video was hit with a police truncheon two-and-a-half times. Two hits and a tap. How does that make it a beating?
And as Westdene Seagull says, from the clip, we don't know what went on before. If these cyclists were completely innocent, why did they start pedalling so fast once they saw the police? Had other police seen them committing offences previous to the clip? Had the police, for example, seen them torching a building containing residential flats, or had they seen them beating someone up and robbing them? People who don't want to be caught struggle violently. Were these officers just supposed to stand by while he flailed out at them until they let him go? No, they wanted to restrain him and bring him to justice. That's what their truncheons are for. If they'd been armed, like the French or American police, he may well be dead by now. It's all relative and we don't know all the facts.

Actually looks like he is about to walk off at the end of the video. So whether they were intending to detain him is up for debate, you can't really tell from that video. What you can see from that video is that the police used more force than was necessary, It looks like a few whacks with the truncheon and then putting the boot in while he is on the floor to me and he didn't look much like he was struggling violently after the first whack.
This video is one very small aspect of the situation and one that I have commented on too much, I have said all I want to say. thank you all for the discussion but i am done. See you on another thread.
