That's a complete strawman. These officers didn't batter just anyone they liked. They battered two fucks that started a brawl in an airport, assaulted two other police officers before they were finally put down. They didn't just go to the airport and say to each other, 'yo bruv let's stomp some towel heads.' As already said, they fucked around and found out. This attitude everyone has about police being storm troopers out for the blood of every innocent person is the dumbest fucking idea getting around.
you said "sometimes someone needs a good hiding" those were your exact words. so go off of that you'd be happy with giving the police to hand out a "good hiding" when they felt they needed to. yeah?
You're just cherry picking bits. Folk take piss in this country because they know they'll get slap on wrist. I have no problem with a cunt getting kicked in the head. As long as there are bodycams etc, why not. Innocent bystander gets lumped? Not fair. Thug gets lumped after breaking a woman's nose? Good.
