They said that they thought his presence was antagonising the crowd. Whether you think it's morally right or not, the Police have the power to arrest someone to prevent a breach of the peace. Maybe he was wearing his kippah at a jaunty angle which as anyone knows will antagonise even the most moderate of antisemitics. 🥴🥴 1 1 2 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Why was a person going about his daily life be threatened by the once trusted Met Police with the sergeant openly stating you are obviously Jewish, is it a crime now, would you like all Jews to wear the star of David so that they are instantly recognisable, do you not fear that this road has been trodden before and we shouldn't repeat mistakes from the past! 1 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

More hyperbole. Cautioning an individual, regardless of their race/religion that they will be arrested if they do not obey a lawful police instruction is not a threat. It’s a caution, a reasonable use of authority to get the individual to obey the lawful instruction before an arrest is necessary. Other hyperbole ignored.

If the police officer believed their was a likelihood of a breach of the peace, which he clearly did, then he is bound to act to avoid that occurring. The demonstration passed peacefully. The activist is unharmed, safe and well; I believe that’s a good thing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hyperbole is your word of the day and it will not work as your get out of jail for free card I'm afraid.

Chomper Higgot Posted April 20 Share Posted April 20 3 hours ago, youreavinalaff said: It makes sense to stop the guy in his tracks. Avoid a possible altercation. How many in the march are there more as anti Jew than pro Palistine? It's just like football fans being segregated. It only takes one person or a small majority of idiots to start. The police took the correct decision. And, yes, I believe if a Muslim tried the same thing during a pro Isreal march, the police would do the same Precisely this. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post Eloquent pilgrim Posted April 20 Popular Post Share Posted April 20 A very important point that seems to have evaded most people is, that If the Met judge that the presence of a march makes the streets of London unsafe for Jews (or importantly, for any other ethnicity or demographic) then the march should not have been given permission to go ahead. Would anybody suggest arresting a woman with a headscarf if she showed up near a demonstration in support of the Israeli hostages? We all know the answer to that, and we all know the reason why that would never happen; well, certainly not under the present governance of the Met, and the incumbent Mayor. Appalling islamic takeover of my hometown. 2 1 1 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In response he threatens to arrest the Jewish man and not arrest the mob that might attack him. Bit worrying that you think that's a fair outcome. 1 1 1 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The same UK police that allowed a baying mob of muslims to hound a teacher from Batley Grammar school out of his job and home without making one single arrest. That was 3 years ago and the teacher, his wife, and 4 young children, are still in hiding, having all been given new identities. Is this the UK police that you think would treat a muslim in the same way that they treat a jew ? 1 1 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It sounds like a little research would help you out. And a little less at being pompous would pay dividends to your cause, does your opinion only count. The police officer quite categorically stated he was openly Jewish, now is that a crime in the UK at the time of my post. The man did nothing wrong, you are confusing an unruly crowd with a peaceful citizen! 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
