Can you answer, maybe with some evidence?F##me you have to ask that

Evidence?America? Russia? China? North Korea? Some South American countries? I don’t think someone attacking an armed copper would get off lightly with a boot to the 'ead, I really don’t.
He was lying on the ground with his hands by his side when he was assaulted. He wasn't going for his gun.Yeah far better if he had been killed if someone had got his gun off him bet he is kicking himself .
Australia:Evidence?
All of that is irrelevantThey had been attacking armed police what would have happened if they had got the guns off them . Anyone stupid enough to chin a. Armed Anti terrorist copper gets all they deserve you make sure they don't get back up pure and simple in many countries it would have beena bullet in his head not a kick . Well done that PC for containing him and not killing him
Not relevantAustralia:
"Police described how the officer, Insp Amy Scott, bravely tracked attacker Joel Cauchi through the mall, challenged him and shot him dead after he raised his knife towards her".
America:
"A Fairmont police officer shot and killed a person who attacked them with a knife Monday night in Robeson County".
Plenty more out there but I haven’t the inclination to search for them. I don’t think any that happen in Russia, China, North Korea and many South American countries would make our newspapers but I wouldn’t fancy anyone’s chances of surviving an attempt to disarm a police officer in any of those countries.
He wasn't "upholding the law", he was violently assaulting a man who was no threat to him.
If I did that to someone, I'd probably be charged with attempted murder.
Nothing wrong with any force needed to get control of the situation.I’m reserving judgement, until we know what led up to it. Lots of officers around at the instant of filming, which suggests a serious issue before the video began.
As an ex met police guy said on a tv news prog last night, he put his gun within closer reach of the guy by kneeling down beside/on him. He was already contained judging by the footage.They had been attacking armed police what would have happened if they had got the guns off them . Anyone stupid enough to chin a.

So you would like our police to be more like these countries? Interesting ...America? Russia? China? North Korea? Some South American countries? I don’t think someone attacking an armed copper would get off lightly with a boot to the 'ead, I really don’t.
No, I said compared to those countries, people who attack armed police in the U.K. should consider themselves lucky to get away with just a kicking.So you would like our police to be more like these countries? Interesting ...
He may have been on the ground but he wasn't under the coppers control as he was still moving around as were his hands.Not relevant
The guy was already on the ground and contained
What led up to it is a separate incident. It doesn't excuse him from what he did.I’m reserving judgement, until we know what led up to it. Lots of officers around at the instant of filming, which suggests a serious issue before the video began.
