This is why people are losing respect for the police...

I don't believe thatr can be true...


there's no way to know the crazed attacker is going to stop punching your friend, most people would jump in and floor him to stop the attack



Some Newcastle footballer even did it up here not so long ago, I don't think he ever got charged with anything

Do you reckon the person that broke the officers nose will go to prison?

He could do if it's proven in a court of his peers that's what happened. I knew someone who did prison time for punching an officer. I don't know if being assaulted after commiting a crime affects your sentence or not. Some have said it may get you off but I don't know this to be factual. I don't think it should be if you commited a crime

But the context is kicking someone laying on the floor and stomping on their head is a higher level of GBH. I believe it's Level 18, you can debate if it's between A and C. See sentencing guidelines below

Causing grievous bodily harm with intent to do grievous bodily harm / Wounding with intent to do GBH – Sentencing

Lose his job? He's going to prison for this. Some of you don't seem to understand that you can't commit acts of violence against others under the law unless that person is an immediate threat to you.

100% this.
I’m glad criminal investigation has launched. And hopefully go to prison for this.

For those who are trying to spin this around. Give it a rest.

The 'crazed attacker' is submissively laying prone, with his arms by his side after being tazered. There's no attack or any possibility of an attack likely. The officer also isn't worried about a potential attack from this person because he turns his back on this individual after assaulting him to attack someone else. If he was an officer in fear of this person, he would not have turned his back on him to assault another person.

If however they are already "floored"...

The rule generally is you can use whatever force is needed to stop an attack. You cannot continue to use the same level of force (IE punches, kicks, stabbing, shooting etc) after that.
You cannot for example continue to give someone a kicking once they are down and not moving. IIRC the "kicking once they're down" is actually an example stated in various official explanations of what is "reasonable" in defence of self or others.

One of the really stupid things is that a "head stomp" puts the stomper at serious risk of being unbalanced, so not only is it extremely risky to use it as a "control" or "way to gain control" for the stompee you're using it on, it's also an increased risk for the stomper.
 
Any more details about what led up to the situation which prompted 3 police officers to aim their tasers at the men in question? Why did they end up in a stand off with the police and why did they clearly resist arrest?

is there no law against barricading or blocking a police station? or trashing it?


This country is truly weak.... they should send in the riot police and horses like they would for any other violent protest.. This is just embarrassing.

As is the state of that police station anyway it seems... I bet it's not seen a coat of paint since the tories took power
