Poor fucker anyone would think he invented napalm.

Figures disclosed under the Freedom of Information Act show one officer from Gwent Police shot a Taser barb into his own finger as he checked to see if it was working. The 33-year-old firearms officer forgot to remove the cartridge from the weapon before testing it. He was later given "appropriate advice" from senior officers. At least eight dogs have been Tasered by police to control them while officers have also shot a bull because it was considered dangerous. In north Wales, a sheep was shocked on the A55 near Bodelwyddan when it refused to get off the road in October last year. The firearm has also been let off by mistake at least 10 times, the statistics show. A 35-year-old man was hit by a "non-intentional discharge" in March 2006 before a 33-year-old was hit in November 2007. In intentional discharges involving humans, officers in Hampshire shot a 14-year-old boy considered "dangerous" while North Wales Police used the 50,000-volt weapon on an 89-year-old after he threatened to kill himself. Norfolk Police said they Tasered an 18-year-old young woman. Last week, the Independent Police Complaints Commission said it would investigate an incident in which a man in Nottingham was caught on video apparently being repeatedly shocked as one officer appeared to punch him near the head." Love the way it says near the head.

He has also been known to imbibe beer with MVB.

The behavior is clearly and fundamentally objectionable in England. Police can't carry on like this every time they feel like impinging on the legal need to gather and peacefully demonstrate or observe. A war is coming......

Not sure how a couple of middle aged birds were hindering the polis there.

Yes because Fop has actually watched the video, the sequence isn't edited. They weren't getting in the way of anything, they were just taken out violently by police officers that didn't want to be identified (even though they are supposed to be). There was no violence at all, except by the police. Wonder if the attitude would be the same if it was our mums getting choked.

French was quality this year I thought. Not really a clay man.

Setting up to be a nice tournament this year. Full coverage on German telly as well.

No. Mid-table I reckon.

My PL pred.. Chelsea Man U Man City Arsenal Liverpool Benny sacked. Ancelotti read this and knew there was no chance of his Chelsea team winning the title. Benitez read it and knew he'd be safe at Pool for another 3 seasons I expect Man C to be the surprise package this term.

If they do, should they be arrested, choked into semi-unconsciousness, beaten, handcuffed, bound at the knees and ankles and imprisoned for 4 days for doing so? No. Then what is your point in this thread? (besides arbitrarily trying to disagree with Fop of course ) Yes, of course they should, so long as it is legal (which it is). The courts decide guilt, not the police. You don't think the police should be left to get on with their entirely legal information gathering at any kind of protest whatsoever and should have a reactive approach to crime rather than pro-active. I thing intelligence gathering is part of the job. Also, if I saw a copper running after a suspected bag snatcher, I wouldn't hinder him and demand he give me his number. That would be obstruction. Need a helicopter tazer deployed, cut out all the running. Emily Apple relaxing in her back garden over the weekend.

Fit Watch? But she's a minger. With added choke hold??

This thread just needs a tazering for a full house.

No. Are you saying the police force should? Of course you aren't. I gave my opinion further up. They've done nowt wrong technically. But they're arseholes. Psychologists call this displacement. Normally Muslims, gap year kids or chavs fit the bill, but in this case it is probably too close to call.

You don't believe in climate change? That's not their purpose. Fit Watch are opposed to Police surveillence. http://fitwatch.blogspot.com/ Did you watch the video? You have to go more than a few minutes for the context. Wots wrong with that? Do they try to stop them taking pictures outside Finsbury Park mosque? The working class are shit at this stuff though. Middle class women ftw.

"During 2002, they arrested me four times in three months, raided my house, seized my personal diaries and tried very hard, but unsuccessfully, to have me remanded. None of the charges came to court, and eventually I received compensation. However, I was driven so far over the edge I ended up drinking heavily to the point I broke down and was admitted to hospital, vomiting blood, on a drip and hallucinating cops in the place of paramedics. It never occurred to me to challenge this policing – even ending up in hospital didn't make me realise we needed a collective response. And my experiences, although extreme, were by no means isolated. Many people had breakdowns, or simply withdrew from political activity because they couldn't deal with the levels of police harassment. The police have always sought to justify their actions against me, and others like me, on the grounds we are the nasty protesters – the ones they warn about when they spin media stories about hardcore troublemakers arriving at climate camps. This subtext was made crystal clear at our bail hearing after the Kingsnorth incident – the crown prosecutor described us as "violent" and said the "police were anxious" we would go back to the camp, "create disorder" and "put people in fear of mental and physical injury". However, as the video shows, we did nothing other than try to monitor the policing operation." Emily Apple.

Those women are members of FITwatch - a group spefically set up to monitor those coppers whose business it is to provide intelligence on protests so you could say they are asking for it by definition. Again in two minds I think the pursuit of "Intelligence" on protestors who usually turn out to be rich gap year idiots is generally a waste of time but I can see why they do it. Their utopia would be database of everyone's interests and "pressure points" - I think thats what the internet/email monitoring idea is all about. History proves time and time again that you can't rely on the working class. :icon_lol:

Save you the trouble, Yoko had all the big ideas.

You don't believe in climate change? Not that it has anything to do with the principle in question, of course. For years the most draconian laws and biggest spy network in the UK was at the behest of the Dept of Transport () and concentrated on anti-road protesters, vast amounts of money and man-power and legislation was thrown at it. Recentish events and recent anti-terror laws have changed this balance somewhat, but still people have a right to protest. And people still have the "right" not to be arrested for doing nothing wrong - whether you hate them or not Chris. Not if they're middle class though.

I know my pressure points.

They were just asking quite reasonably why the copper didn't have visible id, and her mate was taking some pictures. All totally within the law as far as I know. Just middle class white birds not skanks, deviants, skells or crusties etc....
