That whole deal was pretty disgusting!:down:

What's even more disgusting, is that Britain gives millions of taxpayers money to South Africa in 'Foreign Aid', most of it going to line the pockets of the few elite at the top.

[STEED]

The excuse used by the police dose not in anyway justify their disgusting sickening action. :nope:

Bloody awful hope they get the punishment they deserve

Bloody awful hope they get the punishment they deserve

Looking at the amount of press coverage that may well be the case.

This is why I support citizens recording the activities of the police in public areas.

Would this story have had a different ending, if the incident were not recorded?

This is a perfect opportunity to reflect back to the police what they have been telling citizens for years: If you have done nothing wrong, you have nothing to worry about.

If it is good enough for citizens, it sure is good enough for the police. :yep:
