Police torch football thug with CS spray/flames

You know what I always find so glaringly, uh, ironic (?) about these threads?

If this had been in the USA and an American LEO, the very ones laughing and carrying on about how awesome it was would have had their knickers in a knot over the misuse and abuse of force on display.

I think it depends greatly upon who is on the receiving end of the misuse and abuse, LOL!

Yeah, it do.

I know you don't....and that's what makes it ironic.

what is ironic is the belief that someone who is often critical of police must hold that opinion in every instance, leaving no room for objectivity on a manner of basis regarding specific circumstances surrounding an incident in question

and then trying to paint it in absolutes stemming from something entirely unrelated

just saying, joey terrell and his thugs are not the kind of police any community should have

That wouldn't be irony, it would be imbecility.

But see, cuddles, they aren't unrelated at all. Both are examples of poor decision making (at best) or intentional malevolence (at worst) on the part of the LEO. It's just that in one case it's OK for you while in the other, well, it isn't....because reasons.

I don't disagree with that.

Nor do I disagree that a LEO who would use pepper spray on a man holding a road flare should find other employment.

Objective...........sure if you say so.

one occurred because someone was actively hopping a fence (not saying it was smart on either party)

another occurred due to poor planning and ****ed up tactics by a swat team going after drugs

im not gonna divulge any more effort into pointing out the obvious. plus, the video in the OP was more funny than anything.
