Poor sod?!
He was rioting!

Perhaps it would have been better to tase him, but it's quicker to just do a sheild bash.

It would appear somebody took the easy option.....a real hero :nope:

For all the police knew he was a rioter or even a terrorist.

You can't take chances.
If you assume that everyone is innocent before you sheild-bash them then one day
you are going to assume a terrorist/rioter is innocent and not sheild-bash him.

Habeas Corpus is letting the terrorists and rioters win.

I wonder if he'd still not spill his beer if he got tazed ! :D

Your also trained not to make assumptions and only use force when you have sufficient evidence to prove in a court of law that you had 'REASONABLE' justification.

I saw no evidence that this individual was a threat to any property or person.

A question: If there had been a BBC film crew on the pavement shooting film, would our Rambo like friend have waded in ?

I think not.

I'm only grateful the victim was nobody in my family.

It is irresponsible actions like these that give fuel to those who claim all British Police Officers act in a brutal and thoughtless manner in riot conditions.

Believe me....WE DO NOT :nope:

One officer was set upon by a large group of thugs and was saved from possible serious injury by the brave actions of a civilian.....In those circumstances, a high measure/degree of force should be handed out and hang the consequences when a life is at stake, whether it be Police or civilian.

In this case it is abundantly clear that the guy was posing no threat or danger to anybody. He appears to be simply looking on at what is happening with a can in his hand.

A site many of us see on the streets of Britain daily.
