Hard to rage when there's very little context. She might have forced their hand/goaded them, maybe she threw something, etc.

Great idea torching your own living space. Who's gonna pay for all this shit?

The video title may say that, but I can't see anything in it, at all. Way too shaky.

Or maybe she was just walking home minding her own business and the riot police snapped because she was in the wrong place at the wrong time. Who can say.

Hmm, not nearly as badly as LAPD did to African Americans in LA in the early 90s but there have been increased searches on youths in the area in response to high knife crime rates which rile people up. Still, a lot of these kids are just ravenous, brought up by a single mother who couldn't give a shit and are living off benefits/drug dealing. I believe that the use of firm, fair force, and good communication will end this.

I don't know if this is a joke that went over my head but I know there was a lot of friction between Korean-Americans and African-Americans around that time and place in the US, but there isn't a similar amount of friction in London, partly because ethnic relations are better, partly because there are about 4 Koreans in the UK.

Indeed. Also the video is very inconclusive as to whether it actually is a girl. I couldn't make anything out from it.
Also, there would be aftermath pictures of a sorely beaten/bruised girl all over the Guardian by now if it were true.

The only thing I got from that video is that, apparently, "GEERWLS" are immune to the law.

Why don't you believe the witness who was at the scene shouting that it was a girl?
Meadows said:
Can we have a list of things people deserve getting beaten up by the police for?

Pretty much, the only aftermath pics I've come across are of a guy who had his head smashed in by what could be flying debris or cops...(I'm going with flying debris)
I'm sure more will come to light tomorrow/over the course of the next few days, but I fully expect that girl was just arrested.

Maybe I'll get out at Enfield Chase on Wed and go for some Duck! Wonder if I need an Oyster extension for the day, I only have a Zone 1-4 because I live in Winchmore Hill...

The video was very unclear, and I can't imagine the person shooting had a very good vantage point.
I'll believe it when I see some aftermath pics, they should be all over the Guardian and BBC by now...

From a former NI police officer:
"Rules of engagement are clear, if someone pulls a firearm, or that perceived to be a firearm and thus endangers life, they can be shot and no court is going to convict the cops."
I don't want to link it because he doesn't like being noticed.

So being attacked by a group of people is worse if you're a girl? Okay.
Police should never be allowed to beat someone up. They should be allowed to arrest people and should be allowed to what's really necessary to arrest them. Nothing else. If they do not know how to arrest someone without beating him/her up, they're just bad cops and should be fired.

Either I made up lies about the Boston Bomber or I fell for someone else's crap. Either way, I have absolutely no credibility and you should never pay any attention to anything I say, no matter what the context. Perm me if I claim to be an insider

This is a joke. When crazy American theo-nut wanted Burn a Koran Day. Smokydave and I were joking about how we had both read it as Burn a Korean Day. The Rodney King comparison brought up that Korean businesses were targeted and burned in the post-verdict rioting.

zomg's GAF persona is like a parody of a right-winger, even to the point of taking a cheeky stab at The Guardian in this very thread. I cannot believe he can keep that pretense up in real life or someone would punch him in the face so I just rib him for it online and he can keep going with his right-wing rhetoric and he loves it, don't you zomg?

If she's like some of the girls I've seen show hype in corner stores against men twice their size, then I fully support the police action. Some of these girls are more aggressive and give you more lip than the males, so no, they're not 'just girls'

I used to spend a lot of time in England when I was a kid. It seemed like a much nicer place than the US.

Looks like the Enfield Town HMV to me, not been to the Wood Green one in a while, but it was smaller last time I went.
What's the display right at the very back?
