would you care to elaborate on your statement?


I hate anyone who would use violence against peaceful protesters. I hate anyone who is willing to use violence and coercion to enforce rules - any rules, even if they do more harm than good, even if they're the opposite of what the rules were until recently - as long as they're handed down from above.

It's morally bankrupt. It's also an essential part of the role of the police officer.


Do you equally hate a protester that uses a peaceful protest as an opportunity to bash a few coppers heads? Would you defend the copper being targeted by a knob head protester (there are a few) with as much gusto as you would protect a protester being clobbered by a copper?

If not, ask yourself why not?

Had that awful video of the G20 shown a protester hitting a copper that was peacefully supervising and he had died, would you be as angry?

If not, why not?
I would on both counts BTW
