Police wrong for using water cannons on rioters?

[Medro]

So I've just been reading up on some of the news from Belfast over the past few days and was quite shocked to read that a politican was criticising the police for using water cannons prematurely.

Exactly when did he think it would be a fitting time to roll in and wash the scum off the streets?

What a stupid comment to make. The police are getting attacked with fireworks, breaks and petrol bombs and this guy is complaining because they used water cannons prematurely.

Maybe Ian Beale was in charge of the water cannon.............

Nicely put, have yourself a rep. Incidentally who was the politician? They are quick to condemn the attacks on the emergency services everytime they go on a callout but when the police respond appropriately it is excessive

The streets of Belfast would have resembled an Ibiza foam party.

To be entirely fair, the police officers involved were probably too busy selling phone numbers, medical records and bank details of minor celebrities or even potential rioters to the national press to worry about something as trivial as crowd control.

I'd love to use a water cannon. I can't blame them for being eager.

I wonder what way this thread will pan out. Do you not get bored of this Medro?

 

[Billy Death]

Yes, they were wrong, they should've used napalm.

Mind you, probably the first shower most of them have had for a good while.

You're a bigot

He has Asperger's. Every day is the same for him. Don't try and break his routine or it might cause him harm

I don't doubt it and Medro's posts usually comes across as well written. However, he writes about the same subject on a near daily basis which leads me to suspect he has a form of autism.
