The issue is that what happened before is irrelevant.
have you ever been outnumbered by a mob who are prepared to violently swing at female officers, and you don’t have any backup? I think you’ll find that this fact is VERY relevant
The head kicking and stamping did NOT happen during the assault on the police . It happened after, once the man was tasered and lying flat on the floor.
ah this is such nonsense - how do you know when the guy decided he was “done” - do you think that Tasering someone is the end of it? It’s not a magic potion - I have seen people Tasered who turn into raging bulls again before being subdued. He has female officers who have broken noses, screaming etc, they are outnumbered. he had to ensure the person on the ground wasn’t a threat, and again..he was outnumbered. yes it fully deserves to be referred to the police commission, but some of you armchair observers are terrifying.
It wasn't an act of policing or retraining or arresting. It was violence and revenge and that is not acceptable.
in the United States and at least fifty other countries around the world, that guy would have been shot to subdue him.
Shot.
Our police have to get up and close to people to subdue them - we can’t fire away at a distance. Even a Taser has to be used up close, and then after discharge, it’s not a magic bullet solution. You see this as revenge - I say, wait for the inquiry.
The police are not judge and jury. They don't get to decide what criminals deserve based on their feelings on the day. That's not how this works.
i don’t think anyone disagrees with this
Just as I disagree with you being judge and jury by watching a bloody VIDEO and then deciding what’s what
As I said, the police have to be referred to the complaints commission, but my god , some of the amateur judges on here, it’s bizarre
