Any oponion on why the unnecessary editing from the BBC, mikey?

And why the unnecessary *two* in the OP. What happened to not taring everyone with the same brush?

Amazing how you will pick a story from as far away as Alabama, so as to get across you own particular agenda.

Would you have gone to the trouble if that had happened to a white person?
"But why wasn't all of the first 3 minutes of the dashcam footage shown by the BBC?"

To make it look more like a clear case of unprovoked racism probably??
Have you seen 'Cops'? The police in the US don't mess about with 'belligerent' people whether black, white or a shade in between. Seeing as every third person they 'take down' turns out to have a loaded gun about their person, can't say I blame them.
Much safer to chunter in the Tawe Valley than keep the peace in downtown Alabama.
// Two different videos, one is heavily edited the other not. //

The few seconds where you can see what happens between the man standing up and being on the ground aren't edited in either one.
Its editing by omission to suit a meme. The officers were talking very politely to him but warned him if he kept walking away he'd be put on the ground. He chose to keep walking away. Anybody(sane) knows that when the police, in any country, are talking to you, you don't just get to walk away.
100% agree with your last two post Svejk, and as I said in my post, we dont know if he told them to F off?
