When you watch the unblurred video, maybe the copper wouldn't have had to put his knee on his face if he didn't have one eye trying to see if the mob were going to attack him or not.
People are forgetting that the 2 coppers were heavily outnumbered and that police are getting attacked all of the time in London, this is why all the pricks surrounding the police shouting at them should have been arrested as well. Are people forgetting the other week when the police were trying to restrain somebody and his mates were sticking the boot in to the police?
Still, all his mates saying he has done nothing wrong and his lawyer is going with the outrage defence and playing on the BLM stuff to get him off any charge.
Why the fuck would anybody want to be in the police, putting themselves on the line for a shit wage protecting people sat at home whinging about them for putting a knee on a woman beater's face for a few seconds.
Nick, Indeed. I'm not going to say too much here, but my friend and a life-long City supporter of 40 years (ST holder over all of those years), was attacked in the course of their duties in May this year. They were kicked in the stomach but thankfully the stab vest took most of that. The attacker has received 8 months. My friend is still off work with trauma.
Think you need to separate the use of the technique from this particular incident.Look at a few posters including you on the thread, acting disgusted because a man had a knee on his head for a few seconds and was never at risk of death or actual harm.
Fuck off you c**t.I reckon NoWisdom is the sort of bloke to cower behind his wife, probably sends her round the neighbours when they have the music on too loud as well.
You really are an absolute wanker. Go crawl into the pit where you came from and drop down dead.Nailed it.

You don't fucking know, so fuck off you c**t.What are you so touchy for?

If the guy is guilty of an offence then of course he should be dealt with but that doesn't mean you can't question how it was handled. The fact that the police will have access to the body cam footage and have given an immediate suspension pending further investigation would indicate a potential issue has been identified.
The problem seems to be it is a bit of a grey area in that it is not a trained or recommenced technique but is also not prohibited. That might be something to look at, clearer guidance to the police might help prevent future issues. You can see the current guidance online "Officers need to understand the lethal potential of neck restraints. Any form of pressure on the neck area can be highly dangerous".
Don't care what colour someone is, if the technique is putting people in unnecessary danger then it needs to be looked at to see if there are safer alternatives.
You don't fucking know, so fuck off you c**t.
Yeah my brother.Has anybody ever had a knife or blade pulled on them, out of interest?
Where? It's not racist or anti anti racist to point out that something isn't automatically racially motivated every time.It's a shame that an anti racism thread can be turned into an anti anti racism thread. Mission accomplished I guess.
Where is it claimed to be racist. A whole apologist narrative is being made up and applied hereIt’s claimed to be racist but it’s the weird apologists who are really struggling to see past skin colour...

You've never been stopped and searched because you're white ? So the police are racist because you have never been stopped and searched. Have you been waving a 24" machete along the high street every evening for the last 6 months shouting " I'm gonna kill all the black people " and the police haven't touched you because you're white .According to his lawyer he was legally carrying a tool to fix a bicycle. When I ride my bike I carry a small toolkit that includes a fold out plier that has a blade in the handle. If I’m stopped and searched would that justify a knee on my neck? Being white though I’ve never been stopped and searched.

Why are people more interested in the colour of a man's skin rather than what he had apparently been arrested for or that he resisted arrest ? Are they so insecure that colour is more important to them than actually the notion of keeping our streets safe ?He was stopped and searched because of the violent incident the police were called to. They weren't just driving down the road and jumped out and pinned him to the ground because he was black.
People seem to keep forgetting about how things are different when you try to fight the police compared to when you just stop and talk to them properly.
It has got a violent, wanted man off the street who has a history of carrying offensive weapons. Yet because he is black it is all about the colour of his skin and it's an outrage the police dared to question this poor man.
A black man is being defended for carrying a knife, but the modern public approach seems to be totally wrapped up in the colour of his skin. People want equality but this is far from equality.
White, black, stripey, spotty, who cares? Apprehend the scabby twat.

Without a doubt, but does that mean BLM should be poked at off the back of it. "He'll probably try and use BLM shit to get off" "there will be a go fund me for him", it seems to be an attempt to make anyone who supports the notion of BLM look like a bed wetting, police hating criminal sympathiser.A black man is being defended for carrying a knife, the modern public approach seems to be totally wrapped up in the colour of his skin.

It was on his head.
Maybe if he wasn't carrying a knife and wanted by police it wouldn't have happened. Of course, it was all because of his skin colour.
I don't anybody would be bothered if Tommy Robinson beat his Mrs and had a Coppers knee on his head for a few seconds

I will probably get slated and called a racist gammon but people and communities need to face up to things and issues. Just because he has black skin, it doesn't instantly mean he is a poor, innocent lamb just based on that. The same as walking down the straight it doesn't make somebody guilty just based on the skin colour.
Yet whenever you see something like this there's always people claiming how innocent they are, look at those 2 pricks in Broadgate carrying a knife. The poor boys. Look at when you see drug dealers being stabbed in London, the poor angels. Look at the bloke from the specials grandson, poor innocent lad but convicted of robbing people at gun point.
This isn't just a black thing, it's a generational thing but at the minute incidents with black people are hitting the news for obvious reasons.
People need to face up to their own actions, the guy was a fucking scumbag and was resisting arrest and all people could do is stand about filming shouting "he hasn't done anything". He has, he's smashed a woman's eye socket in.

edit: I think the above got into an attempted edit of an earlier post but hey.
8 months is scandalously short for that type of assault to be honest but that's a matter for the justice system.
But you give the police a pass because the perpetrators a wrong un and next thing they're beating up a peaceful protestor in a wheel chair which is exactly what happened in the States this week..
Or you allow them to shoot drug dealers and next thing they're shooting people they don't like who have done nothing wrong and making out they were drug dealers to cover themselves which is what S happening in the Philippines.
It came down to the fact that the repeated kicks landed on the stab vest, and so the charge was ABH not GBH.
A pass for what?
He put his knee on his head for a few seconds. He didn't even harm hima tazer would have done more.
He wasn't a peaceful protestor, he had a knife.
and if the officer has used techniques he shouldn't of, which I believe is why the officer has been suspended, it needs investigating.
The same as when I or anyone else at work does stuff outside of procedure, it gets looked at.
It doesn't matter that he wasn't a peaceful protester. But if he was carrying a knife hopefully he will be charged and jailed.

Again you need the context, he didn't just randomly pull up and think "he's black, I'm going to attack him".
He was trying to deal with a violent man resisting arrest and an angry mob all being dicks. They were pretty much out numbered and could have been attacked.
Of course it matters if it was a peaceful protestor, a proven criminal with a knife resisting arrest is a bit different to just restraining a man in the street.
I've seen people slammed up the wall by police to try and restrain them which would have done more damage, I didn't think to get my phone out and film it though.
It's going to be a scary world where wanted men can't be restrained if they are black.
Maybe, people should stop driving away when asked to stop or trying to fight police? Just an idea. It might work.
