OCCUPY LONDON - Police Criticised For Using Disproportionate Force On Protesters

[ococircusboy]

oh you saw a copper punch someone - ah well don't be so stupid and stay there

[MrLion1885]

@ococircusboy Are you a wealthy banker? Or just someone that likes to see the unprincipled political elite use your tax payments to help them continue taking their massive bonuses? If not? Why not give a little support to those who're actually trying to bring some justice to our society?

[ococircusboy]

@MrLion1885 I am not a banker or anything similar - my point is simply the police are there keeping the peace and enforcing law, but are becoming the targets for the protesters. When the protesters pulled and pushed a police officer on the steps which caused alot of trouble, they didn't like the reaction of the police. Well guess what....they're gonna react !

[MrLion1885]

@ococircusboy, Are you joking? "The police becoming the target of protesters"? Try some research. Google "Blair Peach". Also take a look at "The battle of the Beanfield". on youtube. Footage taken by ITN but never shown on the TV news.Just two incidents of many. Seriously, ask yourself, do the police act in the interests of the public at large? Or are they just protecting the interests of a small powerful elite?

guy at 0:57 go to a dentist, go to a barbers, go to a shower, go home

[MrLion1885]

@pyro999maniac Read my reply to ococircusboy! It applies to you too!

[pyro999maniac]

@MrLion1885 haha. i actually am part of a volunteer emergency service. i give my time to help others instead of causing problems. my point is the police officers are there to uphold the law.....when someone breaks it and they try and do their job they become the target. then the protesters wonder why they got hit after they didnt do as they were told or after they pushed officers.

[pyro999maniac]

i saw protesters pushing police officers (which is an offence) and then complaining that they were being pushed back. if a police officer tells you to move back do it........what do you expect. if you dont do it of course they'll use force. Comply for fuck sake......alternatively go get a wash and a job and do something useful.

[MrLion1885]

@pyro999maniac So you don't think that organising, demonstrating and trying to change a corrupt system is doing something worthwhile? The bankers, with the full compliance of the politicians have shafted the ordinary decent hardworking people of this country and you're happy to let them carry on? 150 years ago you'd have been moaning at the demontrators calling for voting rights.The police have always protected the interests of the ruling elite. Sadly, you are too.

[pyro999maniac]

@MrLion1885 no i dont think trying to bring about change is wrong. of course not. change is needed....but i hate when protesters attack police officers who are there simply to ensure that the public, property, and the protesters are safe.

[portsanity]

@pyro999maniac Why dont you watch the murder of Ian Tomlinson by the police.

Protesters who attack the police are in the minority.

Police who attack protestors as a way of punishing them for protesting and as a method of discouragement is the normal

and i am sure their orders comne from the government

You should try and go on a protest an get near the police if you dare

[portsanity]

@pyro999maniac You do realise that on the news in syria right now they will be blaming the protestors for their own deaths?

Same in Egypt

[MrLion1885]

@pyro999maniac Have a look on youtube for "The Battle of the Beanfield". That will show you an example of the police "keeping property and the public safe". The film was recorded by an ITN crew, but never broadcast. I don't think the reporter's career at ITN went any further either, after what he said about the police. It is an example though of what really happens and not what the BBC, ITN, & SKY want you to believe.

As an artist my bank account is always empty I get payed in cash.Hate this system!!!

[LowleyUK]

All three parties have sold us out. I don't know who to vote for.

[njw3000]

@LowleyUK VOTE GREEN. Some may say it's a wasted voted, but voting for either of the 3 wings of the neoliberal party is even more of a waste. At least the Greens have some principles and their manifesto is very progressive and socialistic.

[sweetypie000]

More people should be down at St Pauls and protesting to stop the government and bankers taking further piss out of us - and they will.

The protesters have been served an eviction notice to leave by 6pm tomororw or face actual physical removal. Seems to me the government are breaking the law if they do that. The Police hve no business doing the dirty work - we fucking pay for them.

It time to remove the scum from power.

[CameronsContrick]

The corporate WHORES do not protect the interests of the public.

These c***sucking bodyguards of the state had better remember that some folk know who they are....

[belfasta]

CAMERON MUST GO HE IS A DICTATOR HE PROVED THAT BY IGNORING THE PETITION FOR A VOTE ON THE EU WHICH HE PROMISED BEFORE HE GOT ELECTED BUT NOW THE BANKS OWN HIM ITS THE WRONG TIME FOR A VOTE BULLSHIT IF WE LEAVE THE EU IT DOESNT MEAN WE CANT EXPORT TO THEM

[DaveSquibbSr]

funny they never tell or show what they do to the police

[mickyb8419]

Give that officer a pay rise.........

[Francesko263]

They all knew this shit. They planned everything. So they'll give us solution: a new world governement.

[Francesko263]

Globalization and financial stock markets are brutally killing middle class. Creeping fascism throughtout Europe and USA.

[mrme19801]

@whowhere2k and the hair ha ha

[MrOllie86]

the police should realise this is for them too.... they are like traitors working for the federation, not the people, i think they really sensed they shouldn't have been there in such numbers on saturday. Believe the below by simplisticSusans7o67, everyone should know this, i think if they did, every single person would go and join the movement right now...

[SimplisticSusans7o67]

The Darkness is Deepening

"Much Pain but Still Time"

We have been informed that we have until December 2012 to change the system of Government controlling the Earth's resources or this Planet will undergo a "Controlled Demolition"

They are totally sick of "mankind's" ways, the attempted bombing of the Moon being the final straw

We have been given plenty of signs trying to point us in the direction of the "Path with the Heart", but there is a limit

How many other forms of life have to suffer ???

[SimplisticSusans7o67]

@PortsladeBySea This is "The Evil that Men Do", they Rape & Destroy the Natural World ( THE GODDESS ).

this will be so until we Women take control and Physically restrain all Men.

The Destruction of ALL their Machines is what is needed to restore Peace & Order to this Planet, the banks and other financial systems are part of that machinery that Must All Go.

Peace ;-)

[lucky01242]

Keep the truth coming Kev. Peace bro! I'd suggest transferring a good portion of wealth into pm's including .999 copper either way I personally think from what I am seeing is that its a good move as an inflationary economic environment of depression scale is due by the end of the year.

[offwiththefairies77]
