Sorry for not responding to you earlier, Locodogz.
You're right, I certainly can't claim every officer hit people hard that day; I didn't intend to make or imply such a claim. Many hundreds did though and many hundreds more witnessed it (the footage clearly show it), and yet it appears to have been done with impunity.
The use of 'all' was referring to al the significant proportion of officers who committed crimes yet have not been investigated or punished.

What's the problem with that? What reaction do you see Harwood's colleagues having to the assault on Tomlinson?
