General Forum - Copper who pushed over Ian Tomlinson... - Page 1

Harsh

Is it f*** harsh.

Poor police officers, what kind of a world do we live in where they can't throw innocent people to the ground anymore?

He was pushed not thrown

from what iv read he was looking for trouble and this guy wasnt the 1st he assaulted that day, try him, whether or not he's convicted is another matter but there is certainly enough evidence to charge him i would think

Violently pushed, with the full body weight of the officer behind it.
When he had his hands in his pockets too (thereby making it difficult/slow for him to protect himself against the landing).
It was utterly needless bully boy bulls***.

Putting it as simply as I can, Kebabhead.
If you were to push someone over with sufficient force to cause injury resulting in death, you'd face manslaughter charges.

Not in self defence

Was the policeman acting in self defence then?

And what, pray tell, does self defence have to do with this thread....?
Unless you see shambling old men, facing away from you with their hands in their pockets as some sort of threat that needs taken out?
In which case, Saturday shopping with you must be eventful.
