G20 police officer cleared of assault

That depends on if the police officer really thought of her as a threat and her can of soda a weapon, or was actually thinking 'I'm so annoyed with you, 'll shut you up you stupid loud mouthed b****'.

Unfortunately, from the video, I think the second of the two choices was happening.

A view not held by the court, nor indeed by the injuries inflicted to the woman...

It's only my opinion.

It's also my opinion that given a police officer vs a 'soap dodging ***** jippo women that doesn't turn up to court' the jury will not rely solely on the facts, but will have prejudice :(


Seriously, if ***** women had smacked police-man hard with a stick, do you think a jury would have returned 'self defence, fair enough' in a million years??

He probaly shouldn't have used his kosh(sp?) but if you're going to get in a police officers face shouting and intimidating him then what do you expect.
I don't know, what sort of reaction would you expect from a 6 foot male member of the public when a small woman get's in his face "intimidating" him? Oh year, it's fine to hit them with a metal stick.

Perhaps if she'd have turned up, the result would have been different, the power of personal testimony (from either side) should not be underestimated.

Size doesn't matter if you're carrying a weapon...

Did the officer over-react? Yes, in the light of day, but the law doesn't work on the light of day. It allows for the possibility of error made during snap judgements made under pressure with regards for safety concerns.

I agree but any person with any object in their hand could potentially be carrying a weapon.

The problem is he wasn't acting like a man fearing for his safety, he was behaving like a man enjoying his position of power. Why would you backhand someone in self defense, do they teach that in the police self defense manual?

I personally believe that the police officer was in the clear, His reactions were justifed.
The amount of disrespect this so called "women" shows to a public servent that day in adn day out puts his life on the line to keep the filthy cow safe is un describable.
People mention proportional levels of response, how many police officers were injured during this so-called peaceful protest?
No offence but this response is practically mild manured compared to most other countries, that would have resorted to use of tear gas, as seen at other incidents around the world (Germany main point).

In short the protesters went looking for a fight and got their dues handed to them.

I reckon next protest they should let the army deal with the protest, then they'll see "soft" arrests.

And my final statement; I personally wouldn't wish to be a police man in this current climate as all the work that they do is in vain and their hands are tied by people who's only interest is the well being of the perpetrators of multiple crimes such as the blatant vandalism of multiple banks in the peaceful protest...
 
Indeed I've heard the army sorted out the 'bloody Sunday' rabble quite effectively
:rolleyes:

really , lets go massively off topic??

Or should i dig out the pictures of the bullet strikes on the humbers ??
or the pictures of ira men firing from behind civilian human walls?
 
Edit: There's no point in me posting anything remotely serious as I know the tone of this thread/forum, so:

Completely right decision. He used appropriate force on an armed, dangerous person who clearly was wearing a bomb vest, grenades and a hat. I look forward to the day when all large imposing men, can hit women and get away with it. Better if they're in positions of power, or authority. Hell, let's bring back executions. Teenage pregnant? Execution! Minor theft? Execution! Speeding? Execution. Of course, they'd be executed via an ethernet cable, from our super overclocked, modded PC.

As a side note, I would like to renew my subscription to Police Lovers Anonymous. I look forward to the next issue with the promised Tear Gas. I promised my cousin I'd harass some blacks. He'd be disappointed if I couldn't make good on that.

Best thing to do in a frisky anti-cop crowd is to harass the cordon y'know.

I hear if you get close enough to scream up a policemans nostrils you win a prize.
 
Glad he got off.

Not bothered to read the whole thread.

But if anyone on here thinks he should have got done for assault or excessive force or any similar charge, then your a bunch of idiots.

The police have a hard enough job as it is without some jobless hippies getting in their face.
