He told them that he was not the person they mistook him for; his neighbour confirmed that . Under the law, he is not required to do any more than that - he cooperated fully.

All the barrack room lawyer/human rights types always bemoan their lack of freedom are usuallybthe first to complain when there isn't any policing. No different to the *ankers who object to a UK national ID card. Only criminals fear being identified. Basically if you are a law obiding citizen the police are on your side and there to help. If you are abusive, evasive or physically violent... Expect to get tazered,arrested and convicted. Obviously you are not black and don't understand the harassment these people have had for years.They are sick of it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In the UK you don't have to give your name to the cops. What should I do if I am stopped or/and searched? It's up to you whether you provide your name and address. http://content.met.police.uk/Article/Frequently-Asked-Questions/1400009364853/1400009364853 He asked the cops to tell him what he had done wrong, by law the police have to tell you why they are stopping you, the police wouldn't answer him so he opted to walk into his house whereupon he was then assaulted & tazered by the police for no reason. What is a stop and search? You may be stopped as the officer may have grounds to suspect that you are carrying: Drugs, weapons, stolen property or fireworks; Items that could be used: to commit crime. to cause criminal damage. The grounds the police officer must have should be based on facts, information or intelligence or could be because of the way you are behaving. There are times, however, when police officers can search anyone within a certain area, for example:- Where there is evidence that serious violence has or may take place. (Section 60 Criminal Justice and Public Order Act 1994). The police officer should explain this to you and must be searching for items that could be used in connection with violence. http://content.met.police.uk/Article/Frequently-Asked-Questions/1400009364853/1400009364853 Even his neighbour came out to vouch for him, but the cops weren't listening. Shockingly bad policing! Although, he should think himself lucky he is not in the US as he would probably be dead by now! Are'nt these power mad cops given any training with tazers at all. If so, why did she tazer him, a 70 yr old man who was just wanting to enter his own home. These bullies need to be repremanded and have the tazer taken away from them. They just would not listen to his neighbour and were hellbent on arresting him. If this is how safe it is on the streets of Bristol, i am glad that i do not live there. Just lucky that the neighbour was there to video it all as the policeman was already lying about the situation. Just imagine the evidence which would have been presented if it were not for the video. For gods sake, do not arm the Brit police with this example of self control. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He does not have to give his name (in the UK) and he had done nothing wrong. The local plod had assumed that a black man entering a property by the front door must be a burglar (although why a burglar would bring a dog with him on a job beats me!). They then tasered him without checking anything, which is against the law in the UK. They were not interested in anything he had to say, and she was just itching to use the tazer, just look at her body language. Why did she pull the trigger.

But guess that was just cos of my big ole white privilege... I am white and recall many years ago being grabbed on the streets of Melbourne by two detectives. No explanation, taken downstairs in Russell st police station. Then they proceeded to try to get me to admit that i had stolen cameras from a van. One slapped me around a bit before leaving, then the other told me how sorry he was and that he would look after me ( good cop bad cop operation) I just clammed up and they let me go eventually. No tazers then but they did have guns. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mansell Posted January 23, 2017 Share Posted January 23, 2017 The two police officers forgot to use common sense, which should be called uncommon sense. There was a neighbor vouching for the man and they both refused to listen to him. The whole thing could have been resolved in under a minute. The policewomen seemed hellbent on making the situation worse with her stubborn refusal to look past the end of her nose and listen to what was going on around her. It was a case of severe tunnel vision. Back to training for them both. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
canthai55 Posted January 23, 2017 Share Posted January 23, 2017 Cops. Same the world over. Anyone who does not / can not understand this has not had many dealings with them. They are a Paramilitary organization, and as such abide by the Cardinal Rule - Us against Them. And the them is anyone not a cop, especially of a different Race, Speaking a different Language, wearing different Clothes. FTC Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The question is why the police did not know he did not have to give them his name. Why they where obstructing him on his effort to get home. Why did they tazer him when he did nothing wrong but assert his rights. Why did they not listen to his neighbour who vouched for him. Why they lied and said the 70 year old grey hair assaulted them, why was he charged in the first place. These two Muppets need to be fired. They have no business being police officers anywhere.

Funny, last time I worked in Nigeria I witnessed a black guy sass two black cops at a roadblock.. They pulled him out through the drivers window and gave it to him with a long bamboo baton. Now, was he being beaten cos he was abusive or because he was driving while black ? Sounds like you are implying that it was OK for the police to beat the guy up for giving them some sass. You seem to forget he did not have to give the police his name. He did absolutely nothing wrong. It was the police who kept escalating the situation.

I suspect some dogs will get aggressive when they think their 'owner' is being attacked, whereas other dogs would be confused - knowing that its wrong to bite any person. Thank god the dog didn't bite either of the police as they would also have been tasered, and then possibly euthenised as an 'aggressive dog' .

jesimps Posted January 23, 2017 Share Posted January 23, 2017 4 hours ago, SaintLouisBlues said: You're simply using the "if you've nothing to hide argument", rather than the "presumption of innocence" argument. All well and good if you're a white man, I suppose, but the phrase "driving while black" is used time and again to exemplify the "guilty until proven innocent" attitude of many police towards non-white people. Only a white heterosexual male could possibly use the phrase " the police are on your side and there to help " while keeping a straight face First time I've heard that phrase during my 72 years on this earth. Regarding giving your name to the police, why anyone would choose not to I can't imagine. Especially someone in his position. I'm sure only those with a chip on their shoulder wouldn't, regardless of race. Good one for the lefties to get orgasmic about though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dunroaming Posted January 23, 2017 Share Posted January 23, 2017 I think I will sit on the fence with this one. I can see both sides but without real background and mindset of the police officers and the victim it is hard to call. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

alien365 Posted January 23, 2017 Share Posted January 23, 2017 I've been stop and searched many times in London.

the guest Posted January 23, 2017 Share Posted January 23, 2017 I think all should be handcuffed as standard (unless they have an obvious health or disability issue), whether they are innocent or not. It protects both the Police, and the victim/suspect from any misunderstanding, and controls the situation. Also, the Police should have the right to check that when a person is questioned, that they must identify themselves at all times, if they don't then they must be checked out. If they don't co-operate, then they should be detained for further questioning. There are millions of illegal immigrants in the UK unaccounted, it's the only way to solve the problem. UK has become a soft target, and surely this issue must be properly addressed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If there's one thing obvious from this video, its that the police officers were wrong and saying "calm down" over and over again doesn't diffuse the situation.... The police officers 'screwed up' - but this time more obviously than usual as the guy they tasered was their race relations adviser .
