I think the lack of comment about the second female officer suggests it's more about colleague protection than male chivalry. It could have been early days in the attacked officer's career, we don't know yet, and he felt a need to protect her mainly for that. Or it could be something else of course.I understand.
To be clear, what I'm not saying is the 'offending' officer did his actions to protect his female colleague. I don't know the context.
I'm responding to the posters with this mindset.
And, by the response you posted, there was also a second female caught up and she wasn't made to step aside. I didn't see the 'chivalrous' posters protecting the secondary officer who came off unscathed! Hypocrisy, much?
Male or female? No. They are police officers in the job.
This is the job and shit happens.
what is it with you and CAPITALS? it DOESN'T make your weird sexist agenda views ANYMORE valid and makes you look DESPERATE.
Not when it gets physical. They are better in diffusing these situations before they start thoughQuite often female officers are far better equipped than many male counterparts in those situations.
Possibly-but the last thing I wanted was a big lump who couldn't think or communicate because they were the ones who would get me twatted in the process.Not when it gets physical. They are better in diffusing these situations before they start though
That is a very sensible posting @hilts . Unless you (generic you) were actually there or involved you cannot know exactly what happened.Sometimes we spend so much time arguing which side(sad I know) is right and which is wrong when the probable answer is they both were wrong.
We could end up with both receiving severe punishment for their actions and that might be the correct decision. This seems the likeliest outcome to me with the caveat I've only see the video.
Do they still do the residential training, Bruche/Hendon etc? I’m guessing Covid also had an impact on training for new recruits. I’m imagining some lowly Peeler, back in the mid 1800’s, saying to his colleague “I’m telling you mate, the jobs fucked”!Interesting to hear-because that's exactly what friends of mine who are still in the job are saying-many in management positions and some in training.
Many recruits are totally unsuitable -once they are out of their probation it is very hard to sack an officer..thats why recruitment, vetting and training are so crucial. A significant uplift in pay would help attract better quality for starters.
But yeah, I heard an example of the tattoo thing...incredible.
And most definitely your mouth is the best weapon.
No residential training went years ago-cuts and all that.Do they still do the residential training, Bruche/Hendon etc? I’m guessing Covid also had an impact on training for new recruits.

I worked for a few days with a copper who was involved in recruiting, he said the process in a shambles now, he had to point out one of the recruits had racist tattoos ffs how does that even happen. He said the biggest must have skill was communication and being able to defuse situations with words but far too many hotheads were passing through training.
Don’t mess with the police and you won’t get kicked……simplethe police at airports are tooled up with tazers, pepper spray and guns, all these weapons are designed to suppress a suspect and capable of doing so, the sole of a boot and toe of a boot are not protocol, the officer deserves to loose his job over this
so now 4 videos (still not of the assualt of the police woman)
4-5 different accounts of what started it.
Chancers peddling hate for their own ends, see toy soldier tommy has been all over it plus a few muslim cranks too.
No one knows the full story still all we know is, emergency workers were assaulted and a police officer used unreasonable force at one point.
I need a new tv anyway might pop down to the next riot, you know the one for the soldier that’s fighting for his life after been stabbed or the copper stabbed in a prison the other day, oh wait there won’t be one for them will there!
c) get the female officer shouting "stay back" to everyone to handcuff him as you point a gun at him lying tasered face down posing zero threat.quick question would you
a) take a risk of trying to arrest him whilst he's on the floor which might fail and end up with a gun in the wrong hands in an airport
or
b) spark the guy out then arrest him without any risk
Spark him out how? They had the legal means to mitigate any risk and arrest him safely, but Billy big boots decided otherwisequick question would you
