If this is to be believed, 7 officers arrested an autistic child for hate speech when the child suggested one of the coppers looked like her nan who is a lesbian. As with anything, there may be more context than is shown on the video, but what is shown is absolutely disgusting: Where is the common sense? They are getting a lot of grief online and unless something more comes out I would say deservedly so. Really upsetting to watch and to think that not one of seven adult coppers stops to think "Hang on, is this right"
Seems there is a bit more to it: https://www.itv.com/news/calendar/2...fter-video-shows-autistic-girl-being-arrested
Yeah, the context around the accounts sharing this is.. intriguing, to say the least. Just have a quick check of Aisling O'Connell's other 'interests'. No doubt the "kids today have their arses wiped" brigade will be out in force in defence of the police, will they? Not going to hold my breath.
Thin skinned bullies. I don't think police forces were ever properly held to account after lockdown where they were using drones in the Peak District or arresting people with coffee or trying to stop people using their front gardens. They need reigning in.
