What exactly are the police meant to do ? This country is policed by consent. That means the majority respect the law and abide by it leaving the police to deal with the few who do not.
When 1,000 + people stand in a group and do not want to respect anything what can 20/100 coppers do ?
If a copper arrests someone he has to accompany that person to the nick so leaving his mates one short....
If a copper hits someone he will be filmed on 10 different phones, all will post the footage on social media and the cop will get in the shit.
The general tone of this forum always seems to be the cops are heavy handed wankers who are not trusted, are racist and act in a (Conservative) political way and yet this thread attacks the cops for not wading in and sorting it out !!
I am glad you responded to this tool as save's me having to do so
