they were out on there bikes hoodied up at midnight when they were clearly told not to go into the city centre. do you really belive the police were chasing them for no reason than to have a fight?Blue Punter said:As I put in my post...
We have no idea what those on bikes have been up to for the last few hours.
If they'd torched a residential block or committed something more serious than looting or general disorder, I fully support it.
If you look closely, it appears they apprehend someone next to the fence. I don't think it was just a case of let's crack a few skulls. I think there's more to this incident.
Then again, we've only watched a 90 second snapshot.

Why was that wee shite out & about at that time of night.
Up to no good probably.
It's about time the fuzz got heavy with this shite tbh.
Strathclyde Police today stated,
"this level of violence will not happen on our streets"
That's the way 88,knock the shit out them.
sorryBlue Punter said:Do you not read my posts properly?
I'm not saying that in the slightest.

However, given the circumstances of the last few days it has to be viewed in a different context. We have no idea what those on bikes have been up to for the last few hours.
If the message is that the police are getting tough and reclaiming the streets, it's a price worth paying.
It's not for the police to dish out punishments (beatings). There is no context that makes the above ok.
At the very least, you are innocent until proven guilty. Force may be needed to restrain someone but this was not the case in the vid. What we see there is illegal and those on here loving the fact he's getting smacked about will be the first to cry when the scrote presses charges.

Kids out on bikes in the sark with hoods when there has been rioting a short distance awat in the city centre? Fuck that. Guilty until they can prove that they are innocent I say. Anyone seen out at that time should be suspected of the worst and treated accordingly. If they aren't responsible they are let go and they can consider their bruises are for the greater good of society by allowing police to use these tactics. Well if they don't use abit of additional force the little scrote won't learn his lesson.
