He didn't shoot first and was in police custody and handcuffed when he was shot. Then the next day at a peaceful protest half a dozen police officers beat the hell out of a 16 year old girl. Upon seeing this the peaceful protest turned into a riot. The beggining was the police's fault entirely but the continuation is purely opportunistic.


I'm gonna go ahead and accuse you of making that up...or at least being flatout wrong.

*Does a 3 second Google search*

The 16 year-old was said by some witnesses to have thrown a stone at a line of officers during the initial protest at Tottenham police station.

Sounds like unconfirmed stories to me.

Most are because we never get the same story from the same people. A man was shot that is confirmed and it was confirmed that the police shot him. What isn't confirmed is whether he was in the poisition to fire but didn't or even holding a gun at the time, although it's very likely he was in possession of a gun. I highly doubt that he'd ever be in custody and handcuffed and then shot, that's just bullcrap.

The girl provoked the police in a peaceful protest turning it into something else. She started this whole thing in otherwords. I doubt police attacked and beat her knowing fully it was a 16 year old girl, we don't know the full story . The article says she was knocked to the ground (which could be no more then a push) and then some witness claims she was beaten.

 

Eitherway, neither of these instances should have caused what we have seen which is mindless fucktards destroying lives and homes for no good reason. This isn't the blame of the government, it's not the police, it's not even their parents (as many are old enough to know better), it's dicks being dicks.



Hmm, pie.
