  • hahahaha....you were FUCKED while on duty as a useless soldier.

    And when you're back home, you're FUCKED AGAIN by your own people.

    hahaha...to all soldiers.....PLEASE....stop hiding in the military.

    Just admit that you're poorly educated and have no future.

    Get re-educated, and get a REAL JOB for the 1st time in your useless lives.

  • Police are evil and so are those who stand with them.

  • fuking dirty bent pigs a c a b to all the bent pigs

  • The trouble with the police is that they are helping the goverment to enslave us all (including THEIRE familes and children), And there too bloody brainless to realise it.

    Tut Tut.

  • 1 word. scum (the police that is)

  • these 3 pusys were to scared to join the army id like to cee a 1 on 1 with the soilder and any 1 of those police when he was sober. POLICE SUCK BALLS!!! 4 A LIVING

  • bad cops, just because he wriggled you dont need to repeatedly pummel his head in...

  • don't be stupid and piss off the police, simple as that

  • 'War Veteran'? don't make me laugh. Drunken Idiot with a list of previous longer than his legs. Fact.

  • @scalliesarepricks shouldnt really matter who it is, well as long he didnt do a terrible crime they dont deserve to be hit , while in cuffs too

  • he ran, they thought he done something wrong so they took him down. But no need to punch him and grind his face on the tarmac

  • STOP. RESISTING. ARREST. YOU DUMB SHITS.

  • you watch...... the police will get away with this for sure.

  • I hope this guy gets even on them its what they deserve!

  • those damn iranian basji ! ...oh wait that Britain...

  • i wish i lived in america, i could buy a gun and shoot those fucking cops if they came near me

  • @TheShame311

    no you cant, your be put in prison.

  • @TheShame311 i'd love to see the footage of you darwin'ing yourself like that.

  • The worst thing about this, this is not just some one off incident, it happens every day, we know there are good officers out there too, but the number of people who become policemen for the sole reason of having power over people, is considerable. They are bullies, It is no suprise the police are not held no where as high in regards when compared with the soldiers

  • @dude157

    i wish there was a better system for police, in America they are just as bad. Some rural areas cops can do some nasty things to people and cover the whole thing up. They search cars for no apparent reason, hell my friend got pulled over and the cops pulled apart his whole trunk searching for anything to incriminate him. Soldiers on the other hand have a VERY strict code to behave by.

  • Thats why i dont give the scummy police Free travel on my train!! strathclydes finest are bastards 

  • @motherwellloyal Yep, and I bet you will be the first to phone the Police next time some little shit causes problems on board your train won't you? You stick to pulling levers & holding a deadman's handle, it's about your limit son.

  • @LIVERPOOLSCOTTISH i dont bother phoning the police beacause they cant be arsed to respond i had a pc show me his warrant card the other night and the couldnt even bit his own tongue he was that drunk his details have been recorded and he is being done for fare ivasion

  • It's ironic that we see videos of moslems in UK chasing the police in the streets, attacking infidels at will, and asserting that shari'a will conquer Britain, all the while the bobbies are attacking British war vets while doing nothing about the moslem menace. Probably because the Prince of Wales is a moslem convert and has used his influence in govt to promote islamic conquest of the country. Bizarre.

  • Police officers are only human too,they are no better than anyone else.

  • @llPLAYA69ll Ask yourself ONE question. Does the above incident represent a typical fight in a busy city on a night out? Answer- no it does not. Nobody got stamped on, kicked in the face, ribs or balls. Nobody got stabbed, or had a bottle smashed in their boat race. Why? Because with the exception of the Hobby Bobby, the officers used what is called MINIMIUM FORCE. Anybody else would have kicked seven shades out him were it a FIGHT. People who stand on sidelines & preach are ignorant morons.

  • comtain him, yes... BEAT HIM? did you see those punches? cruel cruel cruel...

  • In my experience, the type of people form school. who joined the police, were weak tosspots, designed fror an institute like that, . all wankers, with NO IDEA of real life. mummy boys. yeah great to hit a man tied up and with 3 buddies, sad fucks. "big men "

  • At least Peter will not be put through the torture of entering the scummy houses that you exist in anymore and be forced listen to the problems you dirty tosser's have. Just look around at the badly fitting flooring and the peeling wallpaper that surrounds you oh at least you have one luxury item a 50" plasma from BrightHouse LOL

  • if anyone thinks that this use of force is justified then they deserve the police state they are getting.

  • whyyyy the fuckkk r they hitting him when he cant even fuckingmove

  • POLICE ARE FUCKING CUNTS... it dont matter who it is or what they are saying. you dont get three of you to get a man on the dround, scrape his face across the floor and punch im repeatdly in the face. .... ALL POLICE ARE WEAK CUNTS WHO GOT BULLIED AT SCHOOL

  • I'll explain it so all you people on both sides can understand...it is about the exercise of power and control. Even if you are a guilty criminal or an innocent bystander, the rule is in any violent situation: fight or flight. Those people who have a history of military or combat training, what do you think they are going to do with x3 men on them? You can justify everything, after the fact...it is called history. When in the situation, expect anything...you can always talk about it later

  • Huh... I mean, at first it didn't look so bad, he just got taken down and restrained, but why the totally unnescesary beatings in the head/back/wearever? Seems unjust to me.... Must have had one hell of a diry mouth to provoke a police officer into doing something like that infront of a camera.

  • why was this man arrested?

  • As a veteran if Operation Iraqi Freedom I have to say that man was in the wrong, you can see him constantly resisting, and thats why the force escalated. Its very clear cut.

  • The thug in the uniform just got 3 years,should have also prosecuted the other two for their inactions while their colleague beat up the guy on the ground but I guess british justice isnt perfect.

  • Fukin pigs

  • Special constable Lightfoot is beginning a three year prison sentence for his vicious assault and perjury in the original trial, at this moment in time he is in a tough north of England prison "squeeling like a piggy" ha ha ha there is justice after all.

  • if i had of been there i would have stoll there cs spray and fucked them up...pig wankers

  • goood the police, bet he was a twat

  • Fucking scum police no better than any other thug walking the street! If he didnt have that uniform on the squaddie would have booted his balls and his two mates! FTP

  • fucking terrorist!

  • well to the people who thought the copper was doing nothing

    wrong he was just found guilty in a court of law

    and so he should be

  • you will get a bad lot in any job...but lets face it..95% of you lot out there could not do the job fo r 5 mins let alone 32 years and still love it!!!

  • @andycats two cops the other year where i live crashed into a woman at 2.30am supposedly answering an emergency that did'nt exist without lights or sirens on (the result) they claimed she jumped in front of them verdict suicide so your right i guess 95% of people could'nt live with themselves killing someone then distorting what happened (how many deaths per year in custody or accidents are there and how many are charged no wonder you love it its a free license to do what you want is'nt it

  • @scits1 like i said ull get a bad lot any where! in any job, there are worse police forces around the world than around the uk. and unless you know the complete truth you can not comment on a single incident

  • @widescreengaming sorry if i have'nt seen any responses you have put but that sounds like a police response and yes there are worse forces but it does'nt excuse what was done as for a single incident you are i am sure well aware there are thousands of incidents that go unpunished my friend had shall we say an incident with the police he was awarded over £250,000 for it action against the officers zero whilst i am sure there are some fine officers out there the opinion of the police by the public

  • @widescreengaming is not one that has come about because of a single incident but by years of what people see as a constant abuse of power with no justice which is a shame as at one time our force was one to hold up to the world as a model of policing but sadly no more i have a family member who is in the met and do understand the frustrations they suffer but like i said there is no excuse for what officers do they are not above the law and should stop being treated as so

  • @scits1 Above the law? Is that why the Special Constable was charged, subject to a court trial & found guilty-because he is 'above the law??' lol People who sit at home in their little bubble of ignorant bliss, have no concept what the Police have to deal with, what Soldiers at war have to deal with-yet Joe Public is an 'expert' in all matters associated with Policing! Perhaps the armchair 'experts' & critics, should get off their arse, take some responsibility & try & deal with violent drunks.

  • No wonder the police dont want to be on video - it catches all criminals

  • @talkwench NOOOOOOOOO THEY WERE Serving and PROTECTing him with their billy clubs!

  • The guys a "Special" cuntstable,he is due for sentencing next month,a custodial sentence is inevitable,serves him right and I hope he is made most welcome behind bars,he is a disgrace to the farce,whoops,sorry,freudian slip,I meant "Force".

  • Not good, I usually always side with the police on stuff - whether we like it or not they've got authority over civilians and it's their word against ours. 2 of them had managed to restrain him, Lightfoot scraping tge guys face on the ground was completely unneccesary, the police have a duty of care to the public regardless of whether you're an innocent bystander or getting lifted for being Drunk and Disorderly...

    Then again, it's a handful of stupid officers who spoil it for the rest of 'em

  • Lightfoot, 40, was convicted by a jury at Manchester Minshull Street Crown Court of assault occasioning actual bodily harm.

    Hooray

  • The police officers have now been found not guilty. Meanwhile a Manchester 'Business man" has been released after the killing of a man in his home. Just look at what is before your eyes. There is a law for them and a law for us. Some are above the law and are laughing at us all.

  • fucking cunts

  • HA HA HA HA HA THIS IS IN COURT NOW, WATCH THEM GO DOWN !!!

    BET THEY ARE SHITTING THEMSELVES. !!!!!

    SERVES THE BULLYING TWATS RIGHT. !!!!

    SEND THEM DOWN. !!!!!

    COME ON LADS COMMENT, THE COPS READ THIS. !!!!

  • what has happened with this case? not heard anything for a long time.

  • Cops beating soldiers really bothers me. Cops beating punks doesn't bother me.

  • frankly, some of the most biased and one sided journalism i have ever witnessed. if he was innocent then why did he run from the cops? if he runs then they have to assume that hes got a reason to do so and as such are under a duty to find out. You cant tell from the tape what he was shouting at the coppers before he ran so he may well have been gobbing off at them. Cheap journalism only giving one side of a story yet again.

  • @thunderlips724 if 3 cops came charging at you id think you would run away aswell,you wouldnt just stand there and let them charge into you. Also he may not have known they were cops

  • ....and have any of thought to think objectively on this matter. What does the video show? It shows 3 men dressed in same type of clothes attacking another man whom isn't wearing the same clothes. However, the position is is that the men wearing the same clothes are justified in attacking the man because they all wear the same clothes....or am I missing something?

  • he was probaly giving them abuse maybe of a personal nature i would side with the police more than the veteran providing good reason

  • I agree that they needed to force him down however those punches do not in my eyes fall under the clause of subdueing a person.

  • @MrShadySun

    They didn't need to do anything. He hadn't done anything wrong and he was running away and under the rule of self-defence one can use reasonable force to resist arrest if this arrest is unlawful, which it was.

    Scraping the head and punching him is far beyond the mark. These officers should have lost their jobs. Perhaps even faced criminal prosecutions.

    As it happened, the guy being beaten was convicted of assaulting the officers, but this was later overturned.

  • That is just sick. There is no way you can justify that. What could have possibly went on for them to take it that far? BS.

  • fuck the police they ar all bent cunts a c a b

  • You got to love the police, listen to them or you going hard down :D

    Keep up the good work, POWER to the POLICE

  • War Veteran? what bearing does being in the forces have? Hes obviously a drunken idiot, who seems to be givving 4 cops verbal, before turning and trying to run. Drunken Idiot falls, coppers jump on him. Drunken Idiot resists, coppers use force to restrain him, rightly holding his head to the ground to prevent drunken idiot injuring himself. drunken idiot resisists, scraping his own head on ground. Just because hes on the floor, doesn't mean he's restrained.

  • What's everyone's problem with this incident. Aspinall was being a dick and got locked up. End of

  • stuped cops, his was down

  • best described as a pack of animals

  • I'm glad i had one off when i was sixteen,,Broke my nose whilst arresting me back then from social services department in manchester. i too had the opportunity to get free for a moment, kicked p.c neal o delson right in the fase, causing a bad injury to his top lip. Good on the man who thinks he's doing his country a favour in fighting for all of us. shame on the british court in accepting the charge brought by police.

  • Maybe you should ignore my previous comment. If the Daily Mail is telling the truth (that's a big 'IF', though), a Crown Court judge took Mark's side.

  • Not sure about this one. Looked like an arrest for something at first (why was Mark trying to leg it and why is the only story about it from the Daily Mail gossip magazine?), but why the punching?

  • the soldier is a man & hero the police are just ignorant thugs who would like to be heros god help us the police wont

  • @MrOldsoldier Do you think being in the forces automatically makes you a hero??

  • fuck the bent bastard pigs a c a b

  • i hate the police in this country

    they are cowards , they always go for the easy option, they don't keep us safe

    BUT they are so restrained nowadays with stupid ott human rights that they start releasing anger like so

  • cops are pathetic cowardly basterds when there on there own. but put a few together and they become hard as fuck

    NOTHING MORE THAN A BIG BUNCH OF WANKERS

  • and these dorks would run from muslims

  • ACAB

  • Ambassadors for the Police! - and we wonders why opinion of the Police is at a all time low....... arrest him by all means if it gets the statistics up but fact is that mans more than the 3 of you officers together - thugs

  • Rubbed his face in the street and then punched him, that is way over the top.

  • yeah, take that for having the balls to defending your country!

  • Hitting a restrained man is never justified.

  • Well , he was a retarded looking millwall fan so who gives a crap

  • I'm sure the twat asked for it.

  • bit like the passer by killed by police at the g-20?

  • people asked to be punched in the face all the time.

  • the dude punches worse than my girlfriend lol.............. what a cock

  • should have at least let him fight them a bit

  • Good job by the Cops.

    Book'em Dan-o.

    Colonel Mustard will think twice next time.

  • Prick , you dont even understand...

  • lol

    3 specials doing it for free. lol lol lol

  • Pride of the public service.. Typical of the police.. too pussy to take on a squaddie on his own so 3 on 1 seems better as they know never to mess with the Army. They should stick to getting cats out of tree's... benders the lot of them.

  • trust the pig thts hittin him 2 be a dirty fukin nigger!

    ur just pissed tht whites like 2 do tht kind of stuff 2 u as a sport! m8 get back 2 throwin spears and pickin cotton u pathetic porch monkey

  • Stupid fucking pigs.....for punishment they should have to go serve a tour in Iraq without pay.

  • Us Brits love men in uniform especially policemen especially if they are a bit nasty, I bet these type of cops get plenty of offers and never go without.

  • have any of use stopped to think the mancould of been risisting arrest and tensing up to prevent being cuffed or trying to kick out! no none of you if you was in another country you would of been beatern in a cell or a gun pulled out on you , next time some one breaks in to ur house or attacks you dont go crying to the police coz they are all the same.

    at least these people do something good for the country what do u do ....

  • can i just make the point that this guy had done nothing wrong, the police thought he was another man who had been hastling paramedics! if he was resisting arrest he was resisting an unlawful arrest!

  • Well Big I'm frankly surprised you could take time out of your busy schedule of dodging bullets and piracy to find a computer to watch this all day as you say. Your channel says your from Serra Leone and hence my comments. What does it say about a person and his culture that he would get such a thrill from watching the misery of an other? Perverse perhaps?

  • yep, would have to agree!

  • Gives you the feeling the police no longer work for us anymore doesn't it?

  • Comment removed

  • Yeah I some what agree! I think the people that made the police what it once was are still around and in large numbers, but it seems to me that some are there purely in there own interest instead of the public interest and coupled with the fact the force has become too politicised doesnt spell good news for us.

    I still think on the whole they do a good job its just some individuals and the courts :D

    Basically is time to overhaul the English legal system!

  • @celinebritgirl they dont , are you so stupid you cannot see.

  • @tucays1 So you are calling me stupid? I have a different opinion that hardly justifies calling me stupid. Perhaps you should be a tad more careful whom you call stupid. Then again only the stupid people call others names for a simple difference of opinion.

  • I CAN WACTH THIS ALL DAY

  • disgusting, police are supposed to be upholding the law, then there are the odd few that leak through the cracks that cause more pain and havok then the criminal.

    Who fucking punches an old man, i don't care what he did to deserve that...i'm shure an elderly man didnt cause vast amounts of destruction to have his head ramed into the road, and punched multiple times.

  • get a grip you prick

  • police there all the same

  • Just because he's a war veteran doesn't mean he's a fucking angel.

  • Just because they're Police officers doesn't mean they're in the right either.

  • @flashmp Well said mate. Coppers get away with shit like this all the time.

  • @flashmp DAMN RIGHT!!!

  • @flashmp they're british what do you expect.

  • @glow322 Just because the guy in uniform is a copper doesnt mean he is in the right either,obviously not because he was jailed for 3 years today and the other two coppers are on restricted duties pending investigation.

  • @glow322

    Just because he is a war veteran means that he is head and shoulders better than your worthless ass you civilian scumbag.

  • Comment removed

  • And grinding ones face is on pavement like a cheese grater is NOT part of their training. You must remember, people, officers under the Color of Authority are OBLIGATED to subdue in thee most humane, non-humiliating manner. Thats why they have places called POLICE ACADEMIES. Hooligan style ass beating are not condoned, nor instructed at any police training facility. I suggest you watch the "BART Shooting" and you will see another subdued man, on the ground, then shot in the back. Justify that

  • The police are trained to subdue in the safest manner appropriate at the time and if that means using force then so be it.

    I agree that grinding someones face into the ground isn't appropriate and thats why I dont believe these polic eofficers did that.

    The BART Shooting is irrelevant to this incident.

  • McDuff I've told you before the video is very clear. Mark's face is scraped on the ground hence they used inappropriate force. What you just said was you don't 'believe' the officers would do that, and that's the problem you have, a closed mind and don't seem to be able think ill of PCs. The video is very clear the SPC needs to go to prison for this attack, end of.

  • no I didnt say  'I dont believe the officers would do that'

    I said 'I dont believe they did that'

    two totally different statements.

    I don't think police aren't capable of being violent I just don't think they were in this case.

    And I've told you before that unless you have restarined or been part of a restraint like this you dont understand the whats going on, you choose to ignore someone who has ten years experience of this sort of encounter! how on earth is that rational!?

  • And as I've told you before the video is very clear, I don't care what experience you have or don't have I can see with my own eyes. Would you expect to listen to you if you said a black was white? To me it is very strange that you don't seem to able to see what is very clear and this makes me wonder why this is. There must be something wrong with your world view for you to ignore what is plain as day, I just don't get it. I'm sorry mate but you're being delusional the video is very clear.

  • flashmp

    Delusional i quite agree! Keep telling him, it is pretty 'clear' to the other 99.8% of viewers what went on here!

  • @flashmp The video isnt clear, you have no idea what was going on before the clip starts rolling!

  • @McDuff73 YOU ARE A NOB.!

  • @vallonia2000 and your opinion of me is irrelevant

  • @flashmp

    Yer he was already restrained when his face scraped against the ground so there was really no need for it.

  • McDuff73 has been on several similar channels/ articles 'sticking up & helping out' these arsehole Cops, anyone with eyes can clearly see what cop is doing!, anyone know where these pricks live?, publish it!.

  • Restrain, those who been thru a police training academy, will tell you restraining is a DEFENSIVE measure. Once you throw kciks and punches (WHICH IS NOT AUTHORIZED UNDER THE COLOR OF AUTHORITY) you are no longer defensive, but now offensive. Arguing with me will not change the the Color of Authority. I did not create them, OK? I am only stating ACTUAL FACTS what the law deems right and wrong. Nothing more, nothing less. It is what it is.

  • Your not stating facts your talking gibberish!

  • What does it for me is the way the cop looks round to see if anyones looking (to see if he is getting away with it)

    I bet that in the disipline hearing they backed each other up

  • Hes checking to make sure they are safe, because in case you hadn't noticed they are in the middle of a street! with cars and such bit of a dangerous place to be crouched on the floor!

    We will never agree on this clearly you see violence where you want to see violence I have been trained in restraint techniques and use them regularly in my job and I see proper procedre and a non compliant person doing his best to resist.

  • retrain is a defensive tactic. Such as blocking, deflecting, wrist locks, arm locks arm bar take down.

    Kicking, punching, socking, pounding ones skull onto the pavement, scraping his face (any destruction, disfigurement, to ones face contstitutes as mayhem) ARE NOT on defence, it is now OFFENSE. Anyone who really had police training, know that under the COLOR OF AUTHORITY, police officers ARE NOT authorized to give ass beatings. Subdue and Restrain. Not subedue, restrain, kick, punch, mayhem

  • macduff73 you speak such an amount of shit it's almost unbelievable. if you believe that being drunk and verbally offensive gives the police to act like animals i defy that you are even human. i've heard of people been brainwashed with big brother crap but you take the biscuit. not only is the guy a veteran, he's a god damned human being and as such nobody deserves to be at the brunt of this inhumanity. how about the police actually take care of criminals and sort out our real problems properly

  • Who was acting like an animal he was the one by his own admission pissed as a fart and being abusive to people trying to help someone injured! His veteran status does not give him the right to behave so badly and its ridiculous to think so, the police officers are also humans why should he be allowed to abuse them simply because he cant hold his drink!?

    He brought it all on himself by behaving the way he did then resisting arrest they did nothing more than their jobs

  • Their job is not to scrape people's faces on the ground, it's dam near torture. Would you say that was reasonable force?

  • which is why they didnt hes wriggling about trying to prevent them cuffing him of course his head is gonna rub against the floor.

    He should not have resisted and it would have been dealt with quickly and with none of this nonsence.

  • The officer clearly scrapes the guy's face on the ground. Are you saying he doesn't?

  • yes I am he doesnt scrape his head on the floor hes trying to hold him down and as I said because the guys wriggling he moves around his face rubbing on the floor.

  • At 00:30 take a look at the officer on the left, he puts both hands on the guy's head and scrapes. Do you see?

  • no as I said the police officer is trying to hold im down and the man is wriggling his whole body that includes his head.

  • Ha ha ha ha ha ha ha! Have you seen the full video from the Daily Mirror? It has commentry and the reporter points it out in that, then they show his facial injuries. He grabs his hair and scrapes his face, or are you saying he scrapes his own face on the ground?

  • Just because a journalist tells you something doesnt make it true! they write stories to sell papers not to be accurate or to support people just to sell papers and get people talking about them seems they have achieved this.

    The commentary is so biased and full of emotive rhetoric that it shouldnt actually be allowed to be broadcast pretending to be fair and unbiased.

    I'll say again his face rubs on the floor whilst hes wriggling the policeman is trying to hold him down whilst they cuff him.

  • You're right it biased and emotive but she's not lying. It's very clear the officers hits his head on the ground once then later he grabs his hair with both hands and scrapes his face on the ground. He's head is not wriggling the movment starts at the exact moment the officer's second hand is grabs his head. If you note just before Mark is holding his head up off the ground. It's really very clear. You know what I can't believe I'm even having to explain this, are you fucking blind?!

  • Flash, all this says to me is how far cops will go to back each other up

    Mcduff, would be saying something completely different if cops werent involved

    For him to say that the cop checks all round to make sure they are safe is beyond belief

    Cops will say black is white when it comes to backing up their scams and assaults

  • 100% Right, he has been on several channels where this video was shown have a look i have seen his comments, Cops=ambitious thugs and liars (sad to say).

  • Thats your interpretation of the incident and mine is that he was wriggling about and his movements caused his head to rub on the floor without either of us actually being there in person we wont know because the video shows nothing of what forces were applied at what times, that said I dont see how its beyond belief to say that they are checking their safety whilst doing what they do in the middle of the road its just a sensible thing to do.

    I'm not a policeman by the way.

  • I know you're not. His head is scraped on the ground, end of story. I'm sorry, but I'd suggest you just stop commenting on this vid at this point or I'll have to block you. I don't normally allow people to put forth delusional as fact. If you want to believe your own lies that's fine, but don't act like other people are in the wrong for not doing so. The video is clear don't tell us we're seeing things thanks very much.

  • Before you block me for being 'delusional' try it, try actually restraining a friend who agrees to it and tell them to make every effort to resist, and you will see what I mean I have taken part in hundreds of restraints over the last ten years and whilst all have been different one thing sticks out from it all that the size of those involved means nothing.

    And unless you have been invovled in multiple restraints you simply wont understand the dynamics of one and watching wont help!

  • Look I've told you once, don't act like we're the ones who are being to harsh or hysterical. The officer smacks his head on the floor and then scrapes his head on the floor. I don't need to been in the Police for years to know that's unexceptable. There is no excuse, there is no debate, end of story. If you don't stop I'll stop you, just leave it!

  • I told you try it yourself and see, ban me if you want but all that will achieve is you looking like a Nazi wanting to censor what I have to say because it doesnt agree with what you think.

  • Look McDuff what you're saying is like saying black is white and having a go at others for not agreeing. This isn't about what I think It's very clear, THE OFFICER SCRAPES HIS FACE ON THE FLOOR AT 00:30. That's just that, I'm not having you tell me it didn't happen, don't force your delusion on others then act like we're in the wrong. I've had enough of this now, I suggest you just stop.

  • McDuff73

    Because Magistrates always beleive the cops view& statements maybe the rest of us are supposed to accept your / their fantasy World aswell, the other 99.9% of people can't all be wrong buddy!.

  • I cant believe we have such a nanny state these days, the lance corporal was resisting arrest and the police tryed to restrain him. He shouldnt have got in trouble in the first place.

  • I saw the full vid. there is more to the story.

  • The full video is linke, I wasn't able to get a full version of the video.

  • my word :o

    were the police asked to account for the level of force used?

    looks like they had him in cuffs, then one of them, set about punching +rubbing his head in the road.

    i bet most police would not find this acceptable or justified :(

  • I have no problem with you being drunk or with you speaking your mind as long as you do it in a reasonable manner and are'nt abusive or behaving in a manner which intimidates or is offensive to others.

    As I said I have no desire to be treated like property, no idea why you would even think that and also no inclination to be injured so I wouldnt be stupid enough to be drunk disorderly and abusive to anyone let alone the police.

    I have been out on the lash many many times and never once arrested!

  • I have no desire to be restrained or hurt which is why I dont intend to behave in a manner that will get me arrested then resist arrest, and also wont be drunk then be abusive to police officers.

  • So in your mind, being drunk and rude is a reason for the cops to arrest you? In my opinion, that constitutes masochism. I think you want to be treated like property, because the idea of a cop being able to abuse me like that fuckin' makes me sick. I don't know how you stomach it. To suggest that I don't have the right to get drunk and speak my mind in a peaceable manner... utterly disgusting.

  • Is it me or do all these cop fans have a masochistic taste for submission? "That's it officer, beat the shit out of me. Oh yeah, I've been a bad citizen. Punch me so hard my eye pops out and then tell the courts I did it to myself. Oh, yeah. Don't stop. Don't ever stop."

  • They didnt scrape his head along the floor he was wriggling while they are trying to hold him nor ar they pulling his hair your just making that up what they did was use reasonable force to restrain a drunken abusive resisting suspect.

  • You have no proof that he was being abusive. You have no proof that he was resisting arrest. All we can prove is that that one big cop grabbed his head and violently scraped it across the floor. It's clearly visible in the video.

  • He admitted in court that he was drunk and abusive directly at the police officers and yes that is an arrestable offence and as you put so much store in the video to me its quite evident he is struggling with them and refusing to allow them to cuff him and wriggling about, clearly moving his head which gets scraped on the floor whilst doing this.

  • The majority of home office polls amongst serving officers almost unanimously reject the idea of wholesale arming of police.

  • God help you all on the mainland if they decide to ARM all police officers with Guns etc on every day policing!! NOTE ia m not Anti Police but at least here in NIreland any officer who draws or uses his fire arm had better have a good reason as N.Ireland has the best Inepentant Board throught out the world after so many not guilty people where shot dead or wounded bearing in mind we had real troubles for over 35 years. I can see all the UK Police being armed with guns. Peace at last:)
