Sickening that they tried, once again, to cover up another incident where they end up killing an innocent.

I had read about the incident, but that video just brought it all to reality. Sickening.

The bloke comes across as a prat on this video. If he was on his way home, what was he doing obstructing the police by walking slowly in front of them?

Hmmm, but this bloke doesn't seem to have questionable immigration status. I wonder how this forum will justify this one.

Dom, I'm surprised at you. What about the possibility that he was there first and Police came up behind him? There are all sorts of possible permutations. Doesn't take from the fact that this man died and more then likely as a result of being pushed to the ground in the way he was. A man was sentenced to imprisonment today for hitting another man in a supermarket queue, causing him to receive fatal injuries. Whoever commits this kind of act needs to be brought to book and made accountable for their actions.

one could argue if it wasnt for a number of tye dye, dog on string owning, cider drinking middle class pseudo hippies that think they can achieve change by breaking a few windows, then this man would be still alive. F***ing idiots

Exactly. Because if it weren't for all those middle-class people voting for Tory Bliar a few years back, there'd have been none of this increasingly bizarre buildup of dodgy banking practices, increased surveillance, unholy aggression and manipulative state behaviour. In which case the hippies would have stayed on their farms rather than feeling the need to make a fuss about unethical behaviour.

Yes it is.
That's a much more apt comment than the one LSi made.

Perhaps we could ask the family, on your behalf.

who me? If there wasnt the threat of these middle class pseudo hippies kicking off would there a huge police presence. It was set up for a kick off by a few; for example, the "peaceful protesters" arrested in full riot gear in a blue van marked riot police. Do you think they were giving the real police a hand? Or do you think they were there to stir up trouble. As i said, f***** hippies.

Let's be clear about this. The police officer assaulted Ian Tomlinson, but no one set out to end his life. Restraint and moderation would be appreciated.

It is all part of a break down in the rule of law.

Then again one of my friends was arrested for upsetting the Jersey regime yesterday.

At the moment I am considering challenging the heirarchy when parliament resits on the basis of parliament failing to protect the citizens of the UK. This is yet another case.

I have a case where a judge has issued an order to stop someone talking to me about his case. This is a contempt of parliament. I have written to The Speaker about this, but not had a response as yet.

Stoopid comment.

The video's gone.

Daily Mail take

http://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-1168315/Caught-camera-The-moment-G20-bystander-flung-ground-police.html

If these are cops, give me the crims. I know what to expect from them.

Ian Tomlinson was assaulted by a cowardly thug in a uniform. Is that ok?

City of London Police not the Metropolitan

They are a law unto themselves and are very supportive of Scientology
