Not a Police State At All
I just wonder whether Joe Public is more concerned about that or the brutal treatment of Lance Corporal Mark Aspinall at the hands of the police in Wigan. I urge everyone to follow the link and watch the video.
The incident itself is disturbing. But however did it get to a point where this victim was taken to court based on this evidence? How did he get convicted with this evidence? More importantly, what action is being taken against the judge who, having seen the police beat Mark Aspinall up, convicted him *and* ordered him to pay compensation to the policemen who assaulted him?
We have to believe that this sort of incident is isolated.
