[News] The police.. and not the one with Sting in it

[drew]

No, mate, you honestly don't get where I am coming from. There was a time I would stand in front of any British family and give my life. I can speak for so many others, but what's the point? Give it another 5-10 years of this bullshit, and there will be no army. When the people you all welcome in with open arms decide they don't like this way of life, I hope you are all prepared to stand your ground. Absolutely lost, mate, absolutely lost.

How was Trafalgar today?

Strikes me that the worst outcome here tbh is that both blokes get off scott free (on a technicality or a negotiated mutual agreement of some kind) as a result of the coppers actions. He’ll lose his job, or worse no doubt, they lose, well, nothing!

 

[armchairclubber]

Well... thanks for that. No problem. Quite understandable.

I'm busy now, though, being entertained by armchairclubber, who provides me with much amusement.

Surely, it does not require me to keep you entertained on this thread.

Apparently it was a police officer who threw the first punch

If your at the Airport, and a policeman tells you to get down, then you get down! If you fail to do so on the 2nd, 3rd, 4th time of being asked, then expect to be taken down by as much force as necessary.

The police are here to protect and serve the general public. If they suspect even the slightest chance of a serious situation occurring, then I want a strong response… specially at an airport.

Closer to home. Last week, a bloke on a moped with “L plates“ decided it was acceptable to weave in and out of traffic at a junction.
He very nearly took out a chap with his dog and would have probably of killed or seriously injured them.


Why the f**k are we putting up with this sort of behaviour from the public… and why are the police so weak?

I’ll tell you why. It’s because every-time some incident occurs and the police attend, they have cameras thrust in their faces.

Every move is scrutinised, monitored and analysed…. by the “know all” public, media and the top brass in the police organisation who appear to be more concerned about career progress / stats then affirming some hard line policing.

Personally, I think phones/video evidence should be confiscated at the time or it to be a crime to release footage before informing the police… until ALL the facts are known.

Without a strong police and justice system we’re all be screwed, and I think people should remember this.

The Police should keep the peace and uphold the law not protect and serve which is Americanism and they are Constables not Officers, or at least should be.

To be fair the policeman does come across as aggressive, and does seem to throw the first punch

Yes to the head.

Watch the video

Looks to me like the police officer is attempting to restrain the first individual before then being grabbed from behind by the second person. Suddenly outnumber in an enclosed pace - thereby having to use more aggressive methods.

I know you like to troll, so I’ll leave it there.

I won't thanks.
I only asked if it connected.

No excuse to punch someone in the head.

A jury has to hear and see all the evidence in a trial before making their decision.

Blimey that’s a new one on me ..or am I being naive

It definitely wouldn’t surprise me, i have also thought Crodo is really Ernest though

Crikey, in reality could it be that there are only a dozen or so people posting on NSC, but each with multiple accounts? It might explain a few things.
I wonder who might be who, and who else also.

The worry is that some of them might keep a thread going for ages just by arguing with themselves!!!

Fair? That’s a laugh
