Couple charged with assault for trying to buy water in Rochdale Tesco

[CurlyWurlyTwirly]

Obviously don’t know the full facts, but the photos
Show the police being pretty heavy handed.

They look Muslim, so presume don’t drink alcohol, they have regularly buy the water from other branches of Tesco.
This behaviour by the police looks like the sort of treatment meted out by racist officers towards African Americans in the US.

I am disgusted by the thuggish behaviour of the police and I hope Mr. Hussain succeeds in his complaint to the PCC.

Yes but lots of cops on here seem to think its against the law to buy too much water and break tescos rules,only saying what i see

Do they? Perhaps you could quote or link!

I think our deleted friend is back.

People may suspect you're not exactly new to this thread because you use the same grammar as the previously deleted 2muchtrouble (lack of spaces after commas, for example) and this is the only thread you've posted on under this name.

@1nightwith do fuck off please you Nutter

1night I’m clearly one of the cops that you seem to think believes that buying too much water is an offence. I couldn’t give a shit what people buy until you behave like that numpty.

Bringing up completely irrelevant news stories about crimes is also something 2muchtrouble did.

Let me ask you something, 1nightwith, what's the noun form of 'disobey'?

Oh, you’re a Manchester Evening News fan too.

Yes but you are all cops

Are we?

Wish I was a cop, £50 pound an hour to sit and do nothing in cats all day.. brilliant.

Plus, according to some, I'd get to batter innocents with batons.. good work if you can get it.. shame we can't whack a few trolls in the head.

"Roll up roll up, who wants to try their hand at whack a troll, just £1 a go"

Don't be ridiculous, we don't get paid £50 an hour.

It's £58 according to upthread!

I agree there is far better things to deal with but you have to deal with what's in front of you at that time. Anyone with common sense can see that.

It's a fallacy of relative privation, 2muchtrouble/1nightwith, that's why it's irrelevant. The existence of "more important" things doesn't mean the "less important" things should be ignored.

And what I mean by "better things" is that he caused the police to be involved and he wasted their time. Most of a cops day is spent dealing with "minor" incidents and offences.

You can't walk away. That's neglect of duty.

Yes deal with what is in front of you and walk away from irrelevance .
You get that out of a fortune cookie?

I'm not a cop.

I'm at a level of hatred that is higher than cop. Below traffic warden.

I'm GP receptionist. Dont all hate me at once.

1night If you fail to deal with an incident and walk away then that is neglect of duty. Crime isnt their only duty.

Would any crime have been committed if you had left Tescos security to deal with it

Tesco security were dealing with it.. you idiot.. the man refused to.listen to security.. you moron.. and THE MAN got the cops involved.... THE MAN..
