Why Was This Traffic Disrupting Protest Allowed To Take Place?

And why was no one arrested, except a frustrated bus driver?

Notice the clenched fist, 'Black Power' salute.

Had a far-right supporter gave an open hand salute, they would have been condemned as Nazis.

Are you for real AOG? I sometimes wonder if you are just a parody.

[THECORBYLOON]

ANOTHEOLDGIT, did you post your outrage when taxi-drivers brought London traffic to a halt earlier this year?

[-Talbot-]

Do you not bother to read the whole thread Corby or are you just picky which questions you answer?

[sp1814]

AOG

What are your thoughts on the taxi drivers disruption of London traffic?

I ask because it seems that you might have missed that story for some reason, when it happened.

[Gromit]

Corby, Sp,
Not sure why you expect any consistency from AOG, he never is.

[-Talbot-]

See what I mean AOG?

[THECORBYLOON]

TALBOT which questions?

[-Talbot-]

-Talbot-
Yes they have a democratic right to protest but
Islay, Gromit, Corby, Chair

Don't you have concerns about this?

TALBOT, what concerns do you have? Is it that our current rate of three police-related deaths per year will soon match that of three EACH DAY in America? Is it that you are concerned that our police will be under threat of being shot at and murdered? If so, they are not concerns that I have.

[-Talbot-]

Are you just acting stupid or do you really think I actually believe that?

So you have no concerns at all then I take it?

[ToraToraTora]

sounds like a warm up for the Notting hill Crimeathon.

[THECORBYLOON]

Concerns about what exactly?

[trt]

Lets be done with it, and get the water cannons out, looks like some of them could do with a shower!

[-Talbot-]

It is simple

Yes I have concerns
I have no concerns

?

[bazwillrun]

deliberate provocation but no attempt to do anything by plod, dont want to upset the local community innit....

now a white march....

if thered been a white match in support of the murdered texas police officers...

[jambutty]

I'm with trt (cue Gness).

[THECORBYLOON]

They exercised their right to protest, police were concerned enough to show their presence at that protest. There was some disruption but not so much that the police felt the need to make any arrests so I have no concerns about the protest.

[-Talbot-]

so I have no concerns about the protest.


The protest has been and gone and it is clearly a waste of time engaging in any sort of debate with you. You seem to lack a backbone.

[THECORBYLOON]

If your argument is so convincing, on you go.
