A stunned British man was set upon by police in broad daylight in Manchester city centre after simply walking along with a baseball bat he’d just bought – still sealed in its factory packaging.
Shocking footage that has gone viral shows the scene unfolding near a Barclays branch, with a lone officer first grabbing the man before the confrontation spirals into a chaotic scuffle involving multiple officers, motorcycle units and a police van.
The bat is clearly brand new, plastic intact. Owning one is perfectly legal. Buying one from a shop is perfectly legal. Walking home with your own newly purchased sporting goods is not a crime. The man had broken no laws.
Yet Greater Manchester Police treated him like a public menace. One officer moves in aggressively. The man resists the over-the-top intervention. What follows is a prolonged, clumsy struggle that lays bare the state of modern British policing.
The initial officer struggles visibly to control a single average bloke who isn’t even swinging the bat or attacking anyone. He can’t take him down cleanly. He can’t get the cuffs on. Backup is called. More officers pile in. The man is eventually forced to the ground amid a growing crowd of onlookers. Pepper spray is reportedly used. A van arrives to cart him away.

Don’t worry...at the rate they are going there won’t be an England much longer.
“ Arrest one person, youre going to have to arrest 50,000, every single time. If they go to somebody’s house, people pile into the street to make it impossible to cart somebody away.”
Solzhenitsyn had something to say about that.

Sad, but true. It’s now like watching in real time, as a certain species of individual is not only permitted, but encouraged to go extinct in less than one generation.
This can be halted or reversed, but it would take sustained and deliberate effort.
I agree with him. The only reason authoritarian regimes get established is because they arent getting stopped on day 1.
What the hell happened to the indomitable spirit that carried the day in the Battle of Britain?
women in politics...
...and wimpy men who got comfortable saying “Yes Dear”...
Were the cops speaking farsi?
The Brits have gone full retard. I’d feel sorry for them but they voted for all of this.
Wonder if they would have bothered if it had been a muslim - highly unlikely b/c they do not want to be accused of racism (which will end their career) - or Islamophobia - same result. No repercussions if the “perp” is White.
Same as what happened to the Viking’s fighting spirit in Scandinavian countries of Europe. The older ones died off and the newer ones were strongly discouraged from ‘acting out’. Some would say America has gone through a similar
dilution of vigor since WW2.
“bumbling”?? Nope. This was per city ordinance: all English are evil, disarm all of them so they can be murdered.
No one “respects” the British police anymore.
The law provides places to argue with police. We call them “COURTROOMS”.
If one breaks, it's a big loss, unlike baseball bats.
that beta male cop could not even control one man his own size. Once again we see the British cops totally out of control working to supress their own citizens. They remind me of the Jewish camp helpers in WW2 who kept other jews in line to please their gestapo masters.
I also blame affluenza, like in other Western nations, for the malaise.
And I believe the British enemedia deserve blame, too: too many World War Two stories, not enough articles about demographics and the fall of nations.
The horrible dumpster fire of WW 2 still attracts the attention of so many people- distracting them from the problems of today, which are, quite possibly, just as detrimental to Britain.
I call those anti German/mainland Europe baiters on some British forums „the wumao of Britain‘s Deep State“. I can’t directly prove that they exist, but sometimes it really looks like they do 🙁 exist indeed.
Maybe the British deep state indeed pays them fifty pence for each of their viperous posts to foment hatred and discord as a red herring. Just as their Chinese counterparts are said to get paid wu mao (five dimes) from the coffers of Beijing per post in social media…
the media is to blame for 80% of where we are to day. it the balloon ever goes up, the media heads should be the very first soft targets to be reckoned with. brutally...
