So just wanted to post this as US cops have body cams and you can see how scary it is to have someone come at you with a knife, the suspect clearly has problems but she is shot a number of times and still a threat.
Mods can remove if they don't think it's suitable, I just think it should show what police have to face and the split second decisions they need to make when faced with suspects with knifes.

What use would a social worker be there, eh, Brid Smith ?

Maybe the alt/far right hacked her account. That is one of the excuses I've heard on here for their faux pas microaggressions.

FYP as faux-pas never occur now only microaggressions according to the righteous :pac:

And off they'll go more than likely into local shops like Eurospar after being part of a large gathering during the worst stage of this bloody pandemic so far.
That applies to all large/largish gatherings.

For anyone who didnt read the Gript article in full Vicky Conway is a former member of the Policing Authority.

We can all see how disingenuous spin works, no need for the perfect example above.

The logic of Black Lives Matter is that you should forget what a Black criminal did three days ago while remembering what your ancestors are supposed to have done three centuries ago.

spring lane jack

Black people who have dreads braids etc are constantly harassed for Cannabis by the Guards.

This is it

Shoot for an arm or leg they say. 30 seconds in and you can see how that's a terrible idea. Christ almighty

Video of marchers in Minnesotta at the weekend, Somalian refugee shot and killed by cops after opening up with shots at them first from inside his vehicle .......liberals get your 'no justice no peace' banners out, they actually raised the Somalian flag to him outside public offices

It's a different scenario but the footage of the Swedish sisters on an English motorway is eye-opening too. Think it's on YouTube.

There was a documentary on Ch4 about that, bizarre tale ........1 twin was a nutter and the other twin took on her nuttiness for a spell then went back to normal life ...........the crazy one actually lived over here with a family if I recall correctly

I feel like while this is slightly off topic it should be shared around.... Mainly on twitter....

I actually really love these guys and they make good points

Think that was a case of ‘folie a duex’. A fascinating, but scary phenomenon, where only one of the sisters was mentally unwell, but from spending too much time together the other person mirrors the unwell persons reactions.

It's sad, I've seen black people literally verbally attack other black people online for the same views.

They even use really bad terms that are considered racist if a white person were to use them.... I don't get it how they could subject someone as the same race as them to the very terms they know are hurtful and disgusting.

Wonder will they leave them shouting and roaring outside the cop shop and in shopping centres with the tighter restrictions announced today.

Nothing was said about the BLM protests during the summer so I'd assume it's something of a hot Potato that no one wants to grasp.

Minister for justice will be out of action now anyway but honestly don't expect much of a change, well put it this way there won't be change for the better anyway....

That channel "PoliceActivity" on Youtube is required viewing for anyone that wants to see the graphic reality of police use of force. It's not for the faint hearted and shows everything on bodycams.

It shows how situations can deteriorate rapidly and the forbearance displayed by officers many times while in the face of a deadly threat.

I dunno. I'd say a lot of those that participated back then are having a bit of a rethink/reality check on the whole BLM agenda now.

Hopefully..

Wonder will we get a factcheck from the media on the equally daft claims that he only had a butter knife in his possession, that there were 35 gardai at the scene, that no pepper spray or tasers were deployed and that 15 "racist ass cops" shot him only because he was black and for no other reason. Oh and that he never did anything to anyone - ever.

A pattern that seems to repeat itself for some reason.

The usual disappearing act. We've all seen it before.
