Altercation at Terminal 2

[Mad Eyed Screamer]

Posters claiming officer can claim concussion as a mitigating factor for his reaction.

Could the guy at the machine who’s been slammed into the machine first claim the same concussion? Or is that just afforded to the side these posters are on?

"Slammed into the machine"?
Are you watching a different film to the rest of us?

I never knew the colour or ethnicity of the fighters on the video on the first few views. Wasn't an issue, was it?
UNTIL we found they were not white. Oh, SHIT.
It shouldn't make any different, but typically it's now become race issue...and even RELIGION has been mentioned.

There's only one issue: Did the cop need to kick the tasered guy in the head? Was he confused from being twatted himself? Was he concerned that the guy could grab his gun? Was it out of anger and revenge?

 

[lazerblue]

you are wrong. You're standing by yourself on this one

 

[Mon Autre]

Do u know what, with all respect to you, i have zero respect for those fuckers and if he copped for a couple of kicks to th head then …. Oh well

And with all respect to you I'm not talking about whether or not I think he "deserved" a kicking. Everyone's entitled their view on that (although the only one that will impact the outcome for the officer is the law).

The original poster I was talking to has said with a great deal of certainty that the officer didn't know the guy had been tasered and inferred that the fact he didn't know that impacted the officer's judgement of the situation.

If you want to say he kicked him in the head cos he deserved it then fine, but that's a different thing from saying he kicked him in the head cos he didn't know he'd been tasered and didn't know if he was under control as a result. I think he probably did know he'd been tasered so of all the possible reasons why the officer may have taken that action, i think we can maybe rule that one out

 

[Bluemanc100]

Yeah I agree with this. The ways it's worded is kind of vague and i think they would have been clear about it if it was the result of the officer's actions. Just smacks of the lawyer being needlessly inflammatory and hysterical in his language. They need to bin that guy off, he seems a real chancer and hell bent on stoking tensions even further.

To be honest I have a feeling that's why they hired him....

Any comment yet from that lawyer/solicitor/whatever on the second video? He didn't seem too reticent on making a statement after the original video.

Yeah, he's just issued a statement:

'TikTok lawyer' representing Manchester Airport incident family issues statement

The TikTok lawyer has broken his silence on the new footage of the moments before his client was 'kicked' in the head

Surprise surprise; no condemnation of the assault by the thugs. I see he's also under investigation re alleged false claims of racism against another person. All I'll say is that the threshold for becoming a lawyer is fairly low these days. Actually, I fancy a career change. I might give it a shot.

By the way; what the hell is a "Tik Tok lawyer"?

There’s a few on here can show you how to fake it.
