Nothing Short Of Sexual Assualt

[webbo3]

Imagine if a man had done this on the tube, a bus or in a nightclub, he would be before a judge before you could blink.

The police were so scared of upsetting people they didn't dare arrest him for fear of starting a riot.

No Talbot- she actually threw her head back- not what you do if you are scared

[-Talbot-]

Her left arm is stiff as a scaffold pole, as soon as she puts her at on she grabs the rails. That female officer was very uncomfortable with that incident.

[pastafreak]

I thought that as she extricated her arm, her elbow pushed him, but I may be wrong. She did not look as if she felt threatened. I also suspect that her attitude, as an experienced policewoman, may be different from mine if it happened to me. I'd be threatening him with loss of an extremity...she walks away.

She didn't enjoy it- but she didn't feel scared or threatened. That's the point.

Talbot - I think 8 paragraphs would be giving you more than you deseve, but let's see shall we -

// You really are useless at following a thread aren't you, andy?
You're that intent on telling others they see something that isn't there yet you can't see what posters actually post on a thread.//

Well no, I am actually quite an expert - but then I have more than a decade more experience on this site than you, so that is only to be expected - but rudeness aside -

//I haven't mentioned sexual assault once on this thread. I have said try what this bloke has done on a normal saturday night out and you will receive a different reception. //

And I have said that it wasn't a Saturday night, or on a bus or a tube, or a woman on her own in the street ... and so on and so on.

This was a policewoman dealing with a silly reveller. Had it been any other female officer on any Saturday night in any town, the chances are it would have played out exactly the same way - because that is how police officers deal with drunken fools.

This perverse notion that she allowed him to assault her, in any way, because it was NHC and there is a fear of a riot, is arrant nonsense.


Go on ... another 8 paragraphs of why you are right .....

Just four paragraphs - you didn't deserve any more than that!

Talbot - // Her left arm is stiff as a scaffold pole, as soon as she puts her at on she grabs the rails. //

Let's imagine her thought processes shall we - for the sake of argument?

I am being assaulted in broad daylight by a drunken idiot, I am intimidated, worried, frightened, embarrassed, and sensing an arrest or some physical restraint here ... what's the first thing I need to do?

I know, I'll pop my hat on!

(Oh, and then I'll grab something because I am a little off balance.)

Are you going to stop making up what is simply not there?

[Mamyalynne]

I'm thinking of all the fun I've missed in my life when I could have had blokes in a headlock or eating the pavement when I've had by bum or bosom pinched or squeezed or an occasional 'Hello Sweetheart' in my coccyx.


So the view of many is that this female PC is not doing her job then?

You are clueless.

Mamya - //So the view of many is that this female PC is not doing her job then? //

My view is that she was doing her job perfectly.

She assessed the situation, dealt with it calmly, and it ended, no harm done.

She did not over-react, and spend a few hours doing paperwork on an arrest that was not merited, and would have taken her away from her task that day - policing the Carnival.

If she acted as others seem to imagine she should have, she would be spending more time in the station than on the beat - because this kind of stupidity is an occupational hazard for police officers of both genders, and they deal with it as they should - with patience, proper assessment, restraint, and a little humour.

assaulted
intimidated
worried

All words I haven't used ... so < why have you?

You are clueless. //

And you are rude.

Just because your argument is invalid is no reason to be offensive.

Let's agree to differ shall we?

You see the clip one way, I see it another. I have argued my point rationally, you have been insulting.

I no longer wish to debate this issue with you, in case it derails and gets deleted.

Our points are there for anyone to see.

Good night.

[-Talbot-]

Am I supposed to find a polite word for clueless?

It was a paragraph of clueless nonsense.

[anneasquith]

Omg :-). I don't have the time or inclination to read/ reread anymore excuses for this males behaviour or the failure of the police to take appropriate action .

[Old_Geezer]

Beyond any reasonable limit of behaviour, even at a carnival event. Inappropriate and the perpetrator knows it, it's why he did it. Insolent, disrespectful, should've been spoken to and warned.

[Garaman]

I agree with O_G, inappropriate behaviour and he should have been spoken to. I feel sorry for the officer who clearly wasn’t enjoying it, didn’t handle it as perhaps she should have done and so won’t be enjoying all this publicity.

Can someone post another link. From webbo3's original post, the link now shows:

"Sorry, that page doesn’t exist!"

[sp1814]

This is a strange statement:

The police were so scared of upsetting people they didn't dare arrest him for fear of starting a riot.[i

But...I thought there [i]were] arrests at the Carnival.

Weren't there something like 33 arrests for weapons and drugs offences?

Been taken down all across the web probably by the social engineers. Plod and the libs no doubt found it to be hugely embarrassing. It showed a rasta man simulating sexual intercourse with a white police woman in uniform in the name of cultural diversity.
