I do agree that in London, very often the police has to use physical force....especially on

1)those big groups of teenagers with caps and hoodies, who walk around all day drunk and high, swearing and looking for fights or to steal ....

2)on those drunk bast*rds coming out of night clubs looking for fights and breaking glass window shops etc...I would use a taser gun myself, on all these tw*ts ...

But being abusive towards law abiding and educated citizens, is revolting...

He sounds a bit gay but fair play to him for standing up to the Feds!

All down to interpretation of course! BTW, this is a totally lighthearted observation and not a dig at you Can't be arsed to argue politics. It's too pointless

I've encountered the bully and the decent copper and most of the time the decent ones have come through. Just my personal experience.
Apologies, I just can't help myself sometimes!

just because young people stand up for themselves and don't take shit from people does not make them cocky

just because you are older than said person does not give you the right to do what these officers did

He DOES sound like a cocky little twat, no doubt.

Question is, does that mean the FiveO can do what the fuck they want? No.

The sooner cops learn the fucking law, and learn when it is to be applied or not, the better.

His tone of voice is cocky. Beyond that, I'm not going to get dragged into a petty and pointless debate about whether or not he is, but instead, I maintain the view that whether was cocky, polite, or even downright rude, he was right.

no matt, the point you have missed is identifying in which part he was sound 'cocky'.. i've just re-watched the video and still can't see/hear it myself..

the lamest way to end a disagreement is to just 'walk off' without resolution.. so come back

I already said, his tone of voice is cocky.

Remember I'm from the North so anyone south of Birmingham sounds cocky to me!!

It sounds to me like the voice of a kid who KNOWS that no matter what he says, the fucking moron (cop) is not going to listen. But it is underwritten by a general 'I know more than you pig' kind of tone.

So essentially, I think we are (and always have been) making the same point!!

If you told me this story was from China, North Korea or old Soviet Republic then I'd understand. But the UK !!! As a amateur photographer I have read many of these stories of people being abused by Police, usually PCSO's, in public spaces taking innocent photographs. And we are supposed to live in a free and democratic country ...... my arse!!

The kid did exactly right, challenge a mis informed Police officer who used his supposed public order power to put I youngster down. And we wonder why teenagers have no respect for authority! I am not sure age was the issue here as the copper was on one.

Anti terrorism laws are being over abused and it will only get worse, if its not bad enough already.

Maybe not all cops are wankers, but all the cops I've had dealings with were.

What are the chances of that? The wankers are in a minority and I keep getting them when I have a problem.
