Why ? He was ignoring orders to get back - he had more than enough warnings.

Most of these oaths wanted people to ‘respect the police’ 2 weeks ago
He won't get a refund or replacement at Primark for the shorts the dog ruined either.

I'm genuinely sick to death of all this. Truly.
It's time for normal folk (of which are the huge majority) to stand-up to these utter fuckwits.
Do we really want the knuckle-dragging cretins to run riot?
If not, DO something. I'm f***ing incensed that they walk amongst us, unchallenged.
I'd rather not get my teeth knocked out and the kettles just boiled anyway..

The protestor was wrong to not get back when told, but two wrongs don't make a right. The problem with the policeman setting the dog on him is that the policeman was no longer in full control of the dog or the amount of damage it would cause. Suddenly the protestor was retreating, with the dog and policeman in pursuit.
It’s not a ‘wrong’ from the police. It’s what a dogs for. Notice how the blokes picking on the smallest police officer with his aggression as well. Horrible twat, hope it hurt

It’s also worth noting with the Leeds thing compared to,this is that was not an organised event, meaning the police were reacting to a situation which was literally brewing up in front of their eyes. By contrast, all these riots are being broadcast in advance on social media so the police are there ready when they arrive.
I genuinely think all this goes away when the football starts. Which kind of says where we are.

It seems everything at the moment is tit for tat and entrenched views the right have Twitter, but google "accidentally" muted auto responses from the Trump assassination attempt

These companies are lawless.
Yep and much of it was a muted response by fellow Republicans. Not sure many folk really gave a shlt whatever side they were on.

However - It’s not the far left getting on trains to cities specifically to cause civil disobedience, violence and the most heinous overt display of Islamophobic rioting I think we have ever seen in this Country.

Possibly - a work mate said exactly the same thing to me today.

Ironic isn’t it that over 65% of EPL players are foreign. But then most get to their prospective UK Clubs by flying Business Class, private charter jets and expensive sports cars not in a flimsy, packed dingy across the English Channel. 😏

The police also said they identified themselves as the main target of the rioters so made the tactical decision to withdraw in order to attempt the disorder from spreading further. It worked that night, although they wouldn't have foreseen how it would be twisted by other groups.

That's what they want, chaos and a punch up.

The people of Liverpool did just that tonight by all accounts...

Obviously can’t stand up to bricks.

But challenge every ‘micro’ hate by colleagues or people you come across who hate on gender, nationality etc.

I get what you're saying but the protester is simply playing with fire. He's an idiot.

More the point of these companies shouldn't be allowed to get away with whacking a political view on without being advertised as doing so or regulation.

I absolute despise social media, I binned most of it off years ago.

Silly old bat
I'm not on the side of the protestors, but I don't think it was right for the policeman to set his dog on him
He had three warnings to get back. That’s what police dogs are trained to do.
Am I being whooshed?
