BTW the picture above - I see the huns kinda saying 'don't hit us, calm doon !'. And i see the cop as waving the baton to disperse him. I do not see the cop hitting him. So I will not presume either that the cop hit him WITHOUT PROOF.[/quote]

There lies the problem.

The picture is a split second of what probably occured over a period of about 40-60 seconds.

You make your judgement on one snapshot.

Do you really think the Police had time to pick out the odd innocent Hun and just baton the,.

If you watched ANy of the CCTv, you would see it was purely about staying alive in a situation like that.

I make mine on 18 years of experience of dealing with similar situations.

If the guy was a Tim, the situation would be exactly the same BTW
