  1. And it does look like the second series of punches were after his hands
    were cuffed. "Just having a bit of fun like, now he can't hit back".

    Or

    "That's the guy who sold the guys at Hendon the duff dope!"

    I still think that's not possible to tell. I'll concede it is possible
    that his hands were cuffed. I wouldn't be surprised if they weren't.
    Ooooh, cutting ;)

    I've just seen the face in the road bit and it is a bit rough. I
    retract the 'hysterical' bit ;-)

    Aren't they luck he was white!

    You'd feel sore. After a beating you feel fucked.

    That was not a beating. If that was just two blokes fighting in the
    street I still doubt they'd be guilty of anything more than affray
    rather than assault, and definitely not ABH.

    Just be glad we don't live in the US. Coppers over there truly are
    fucking retarded with absolutely no idea how to deal with anything.

    I was going to post the Rodney King video with "now that's a beating"

    And the bit where the cop rubbed the squaddies face along the road?

    I've not got an issue with them using force to restrain him but they
    appeared to be doing a bit more than that.

  9. The whole thing strikes me as a bit iffy.
    "Drunken squaddy starts fight with police", doesn't have much headline
    value, but "Police attack Iraq hero", does.

    I also find it extremely fishy that the vijo I see on the news sites
    misses the dancing and taunting bit out entirely. That said, the copper
    with the reciprocating fist was going over the top a bit.

    **** - look, I don't know why I appear to be sticking up for those
    cunts; I'm not, but I just like to get the full story and it seems to me
    it's not as portrayed in the media.

    Last time I looked, dancing and taunting weren't crimes.

  11. Not specifically no. But if there ever was an act of stupidity that
    deserved to be a crime just for a laugh, it would be shouting, "Come and
    get me if you think you're hard enough, you bunch of soft poofs and by
    the way I've fucked your mothers and they weren't very good", at the
    police.

    My experience of cops in the USA and in Canada has been exemplary and
    I've given them 3 opportunities to throw me out of the country or
    straight into the slammer. On each they got very constructive on
    finding out I was a Scot and sent me on my way with a caution.

    Maybe it's a WASP thing.

    TBF I've seen video of rather poor conduct too.

    OTOH I find US Customs, anywhere other than Dublin, to be humourless
    droid fuckwits, and not WASPS

    Isn't there some public order bollocks about swearing at coppers? It's
    a common reason for arresting someone in those UK Street Crime programs
    on Sky.

    I saw a vid the other day where they couldn't deal with some bloke (one
    bloke with mental issues, seven coppers) who was no real threat to them.
    They still shot him.

    As you'll see from another post, I hadn't seen that. There are two
    versions of the video, one has that bit cut (**** knows why)
