It was excessive no doubt, but the guy was in the way, clearly after trouble, why else would you be stood there like that? Policemne should lose his job but not his freedom

[smeggypants]

Ian Tomlinson was "clearly after trouble"? Are you hallucinating?

The guy was just trying to get home from work!!! He had his hands in his pockets!!!

[DIZZYGIT]

THAT WAS MURDER.

[JPOSBORNE]

I am pro police, but I think the actions of this police officer and the officers who saw him do that are disgusting and should be sacked. There was no need forv him to do it/

[headcola]

he gives pigs a bad name

That's what happens when you intentionally be an awkward bastard and walk slowly to prevent police dealing with real matters.

@JPOSBORNE

FINALLY.....

If that pig was stupid enough to allow me to punch him in the spine, i GUARANTEE you he would die, within about an hour !

Its a well known fact that there are certain areas on a body, where, if you strike them hard enough (remember, the pig is TRAINEd to fight - he was SPECIAL OPS), the recipient will die.

My mate (a 3rd dan black belt) told me about this WAY before Tomlinson died, and when i saw it happen here, i KNEW what had happened. Why doesnt the BBC know ?

@JPOSBORNE:

cont'd.....

Back to the kid on the bike.... I was pretty shocked when he told me that (I was reporting seeing a burglar, burgling a property form my window, and the cop was the one who came round to take the report). I told him that dirty little chavs pissed me off, and he said "dont worry i took 2 fingers off one, the other month" (something like that), then went on to describe what happened.

A mouthy kid ended up losing 2 fingers, cus the police are fucking masniacs - end of !

You see, until u've actually been through it, you have NO idea what its like. They sent the helicopter about 3 or 4 times (i even videod it once, and i think that was the last time they did it, cus they saw me at the window).

But, when a cop car lets off its siren at full blast, at 3 oclock, you realise, that they really dont give a FUCK about consequences, cus there aint gonna be any.

My complaint: I emailed them, about harrasment (my ex girlfiend married a cop)

@JPOSBORNE:

He said the kid told him to "fck off2 or soemthing, but he threw the back bike wheel at him (and the kid, naturally put his hands up to defend himself, and got 2 fingers chopped off, in the spokes).

BUT, he said, thats what they are TRAINED to do.

I did try complaining about the police once, for something, but they sounded a siren outside my house, for about 20 seconds, at 3 oclock in the morning, and sent a helicopter shining its light in my bedroom. So i never bothered, again.

@AnnoyingiTypoSyndrome I/m supporting the guy (sadly dead) that the PO hit, I believe all POs who used unnecessary should be sacked, fined and any other appropriate action . If a PO told you he cut two fingers of a 12 year old boy's hand, I hope that you reported....if not, why not. Not all POs who are like this, there are a number of POs who give their lives to save others, like the one who jumped into blackpool sea to save a person but sadly died.

@lti124 Thats a pretty stupid reply. Doesn't matter what you do in the world, whether it be knobhead students

whining about tuition fees or mass protests about wars or even anarchists wrecking shops and restaurants etc

the government doesn't give a fuck about you. democracy is an illusion. On the other hand killing people isn't the answer as they would just declare martial law and the police could batter as many civilians as they like and nothing would be done.
