POLICE BRUTALITY …. YEAH, RIGHT. GO AWAY. GO FAR AWAY.
Alright people, am I seeing this incorrectly?
It appears to me that the woman in the video is crowding that officer. He turns away but back she comes. Then she tells him he can’t hit a woman.
Oh really? In this kind of situation, why the hell not? That’s like saying she can do anything she pleases and there should be no price to pay for her own actions. I don’t buy that. There has been and continues to be a ton of criticism leveled at the cops during the recent G-20 meeting. A minority of the mob were abusive, breaking windows, breaking into a building, throwing missiles at the police and name calling and spiting at the cops.
So, folks are saying that’s what cops are trained for. No. They aren’t trained to be used a spitting targets. Far as I am concerned, if you abuse anyone in that manner, they have a right to break-a-you face!
Now it is also true that during these “demonstrations” a totally innocent (we think) man had a heart attack as a result of being hit by cops. They say he was trying to get out of the area. But he was also a heavy drinker, living in a shelter and having little or no family contact due to his drinking problem.
Now suddenly they miss him and no doubt will sue. But I’m getting off track with that.
Take a look at the video and listen to the ITV reporter. Does the action really match what she is reporting?
You decide.
Met investigates new claims of policeman hitting G20 woman
The police watchdog is to investigate a fresh claim of alleged police brutality after new video footage emerged showing a woman being hit by an officer during the G20 protests.

The new incident, which appeared on the website You Tube, is another blow for the Met which has already faced intense criticism over Mr Tomlinson.
The Independent Police Complaints Commission has already received around 120 complaints about police actions during the G20 protests.
The Met police were last night trying to trace the officer in the latest incident, although images on some campaigners websites appeared to show him clearly.
The fact he is not showing his police ID number is reminiscent of the Tomlinson incident where the officer in question also failed to have his number on show.
There was also an online appeal by activists to track down the woman involved.

Not that very many people ever read this far down, but this blog was the creation of Allan Kelly and his friend Vilmar. Vilmar moved on to his own blog some time ago, and Allan ran this place alone until his sudden and unexpected death partway through 2006. We all miss him. A lot. Even though he is gone this site will always still be more than a little bit his. We who are left to carry on the BMEWS tradition owe him a great debt of gratitude, and we hope to be able to pay that back by following his last advice to us all:
It's been a long strange trip without you Skipper, but thanks for pointing us in the right direction and giving us a swift kick in the behind to get us going. Keep lookin' down on us, will ya? Thanks.
- Keep a firm grasp of Right and Wrong
- Stay involved with government on every level and don't let those bastards get away with a thing
- Use every legal means to defend yourself in the event of real internal trouble, and, most importantly:
- Keep talking to each other, whether here or elsewhere

Oh, and here's some kind of visitor flag counter thingy. Hey, all the cool blogs have one, so I should too. The Visitors Online thingy up at the top doesn't count anything, but it looks neat. It had better, since I paid actual money for it.
