You mean the way that senior police officers blocked access to the IPCC, and by the time they got access it was found that the CCYC camera system that would have shown the shooting was *cough* not recording *cough*.

Thats far from going "mental" its a sanctioned plan to attempt to put these people off doing what they are doing...attempting to hold the police accountable for their illegal behaviour.
Hmmm, oddly the last time I've put anyone up before a court on remand (ohh dear that'll be twice in the last 3 days) they always get let out by the courts, because oddly enough it's (an independent bench of) Magistrates who after listening to the case against and representations by defence solicitors decide who goes on reman, NOT the Police, but I suppose as we are on yet ANOTHER "ACAB" forum (yawn), then it's quite convenient to climb on ye olde bandwagon and have a go.

THOSE cops are b@stards, I don't believe anyone has said ALL...

Why so defensive? Was it you warning them that cameras were rolling before the tazers came out

Haven't watched the video, don't want to watch the video, not going to watch the video.......................

But this thread, (like the ones before) start off with a general swipe at the Police, then (probably someoine like me) says something about the usual "most are good, trying to do a difficult job etc, why balme all for just one bad apple etc etc etc".

Then those that initially had the general swipe come back with "oh yes I didn't mean all, I blame..................." then go on to blame one mindless thug or "senior" officers for orders that they obviously gave etc.

It reminds of the fast show from the 90's, you know the sketch where Paul Whitehouse plays a guy in a pub that just agrees with whatever the person taking before him said. They start taking about the greatest footballer ever in such n such a position/team and the character just cannot disagree, he's just a little sheep following the person before him.

Then you should watch the video! Just a small piece of advice, 6 minutes of your life is too much to spare?

Or a specific case of abuse of their power. Hardly a general "ACAB!" is it?

Watch the second smaller video and compare to the original OP posted Kingsnorth video.

Both show police arresting protestors. One is in a civilised western democracy. One is in a tin pot dictatorship pretending to be a democracy. In complete honesty and without a whiff of hype, it really is hard to tell which is which.

Which makes their remand even more baffling to me. Its not like they are of any danger to the public in any way are they? Yet the Magistartes "decide" they need to be in jail for 4 days? For a case that then goes no-where? Yet the ones you put up for remand i assume were in fact a danger to the general public or certain members/sections of it?

Mate i really dont think you are in any position to make judgments on the posts in this thread or generalise about comments made unless you watch the video and judge it from your own point of view.

And i'll show my ignorance by sating i had to go to google to find out what ACAB is and the first answer it gave me was this, lol. The A.C.A.B. is a Malaysian rock band. The band was formerly known as A.C.A.B. from 1994 to 2003 which popularized streetpunk/oi! in the Malaysian ...

So i must be far from your average ACAB-er / ist (?) if i didnt even know what it meant.

Yes, the fact they are apparently responsible citizens with children shows they ought to know better than to antagonise the police.

So don't go attending pathetic demonstrations that you know will upset them.

Interesting to note that the fit-watch demonstrators were all wearing black hoodies and sunglasses to conceal their identities from the cameras.
