Anyone seen this footage of the UK officer at an airport kicking a suspect in the head?

He's been suspended and will likely be charged

Here is the footage on X

Do we back the Blue here Freepers or is it excessive?*

*Further research maybe required

Here is a 2 minute version of the incident on X

The perp had just punched a female officer in the face and broke her nose.

He would likely have gotten worse treatment in the US.

That said, the male officer over reacted, and this is a reason to not have little female officers.

So essentially it’s a wash.

The Muslim community in that area are demanding further action

He said it’s good for the people to have fear of the police.

We mostly back the blue BUT co demon the few cops who are rogue and a fanger to society.

Kicking a cuffed man in the head while he is no longer a threat is uncalled for- cop should either be fired, or o4dered to take anger management classes and lose pay while he is suspended- probably firing him the more appropriate.

Cops are under tremendous strain, dealing with a society that is getting way more angry and violent, day in and day out- we are probably gonna see more cops hitting the limits of their patience unfortunately. Their lives are on the line newrly daily in some areas, and the stress of that and dealing with people who are violent and in many cases berserk (the drug addicts) can really take a toll on cops. It’s actually a testament how few times cops do snap considering the millions of encounters they get into every year across the nation.

What’s with all the cops hopping around. Soon as he’s down cuff him and haul him off. Didn’t see the need for the kick and head stomp.

I don’t think that head stomping is protocol in the US or UK.

That said, a quote from William Blake springs to mind...

“A truth that’s told with bad intent, Beats all the lies you can invent.”

The UK’s Deep State knows this, too...

While I don’t agree with abusing a cuffed suspect, since the perp is a muslim I think it is a wash. Rest assured that if the situation were to be reversed, the terrorist would have no problem abusing the cop.

Haven’t seen the video...but there are,in fact,times when a punk deserves to have the snot beaten out of him. And that goes double at an airport.

“and this is a reason to not have little female officers.”

It seems like these Angie Dickinson wanna-bees hate men so much that they don’t mind getting their faces rearranged by the ‘new arrivals’ in the UK who have no reason NOT to fight back.

It’s how I feel i guess

@Byte also makes a good point

They are under a lot of pressure we understand that and charging him might be a bit much and is likely only to appease the mob who are reacting to this incident

I dont know what the latest news is so much going on lately!

Bob434, YOU and your ideas of " just" are the reason people get their assessment kicked by the cops. The perps know liberal a holes like you will give them 1000's if they get their asses beat. So they push cops until the cop finally breaks.

bring back nightsticks and start with a few whacks to the legs when someone can't follow simple commands like.." get on the ground, NOW!".

stop the "most cops are good, but some are bad so we have to treat every cop like a crazy racist maniac". No, we need to start treating those who draw a cops attention as someone who may try and hurt a cop.

[[stop the “most cops are good, but some are bad so we have to treat every cop like a crazy racist maniac”.]]

No sir i won’t stop saying that- There are many 1000’s of good and decent cops- who put their lives on the line every day- and who work to keep crime down so we can enjoy life without beign over-run by maggot criminals

[[The perps know liberal a holes like you]]

Enough with the personal insults- I am neither a liberal or an a hole- disagreeing with someone doesn’t make the person an a-hole=-

I agree bring back clubs- get tougher- but some things cops do like kicking them in the head after they are subdued is too far!

[[”most cops are good, but some are bad so we have to treat every cop like a crazy racist maniac”]]

Most cops are good- many many 1000’s risk their lives for us- but it is a fact that some are rogue and have massive anger issues- not EVERY cop is decent- that isn’t opinion, that is fact- Stating that does not make me a liberal-

Yes- that is EXACTLY what i stated- The vast majority of cops are decent people but some do get pushed and break- that doesn’t make them bad cops- i thought that was clear from my original post?
