check this out-a pic of a policeman weilding his truncheon at the G20 protests...not unusual but look at the writing on his jacket :

I keep saying-by not nipping this behaviour in the bud police authorities are setting up their own police for some calamity that will engulf them.
We have 2 dead people now under outrageous situations-Jean de Charles de Menezes blasted to death with no-one charged and Ian Tomlinson seriously assaulted with lies fed to the media.
It's only a matter of time before a few people are killed when the police get out of control..perhaps even children. That's when politician and authorities risk citizens going on the rampage.
It must be over 25 years ago that a young man was shot about 8 times whilst driving through Earls Court by officers convinced he was an escaped prisoner they were after. The outcry was tremendous..then there were politicians in all parties who demanded heads on the block.
The young guy who amazingly survived was given millions of pounds in settllement. Excuses the police tried to give were seized upon by politicians and the man's lawyer as contemptible.The police were crushed in the outrage..officers dismissed, demoted-the lot.
The police have learnt nothing and current politicians are simply gutless fools.
