Who the fuck are these G20 Meltdown idiots?

[cesare]

Perhaps it's more an issue of how it's done, rather than the principle of it?

"By Order Of The Government Of The Dead" just makes me cringe, for example.

Of course. I said the same myself. But that's a long way from saying that we shouldn't capitalise on his death. I'm sorry, but we should - however emotive the language used to declare that we shouldn't.

Chris Knight isn't just a dick, he's a really ineffectual dick, the man couldn't organise a piss up in a brewery and shit like this just makes him and his clique look even more idiotic. Ian Tomlinson's death is an issue but there are so many better ways to handle it.

Ian's death must be never be forgotten and the police have to pay a harsh price for what they did.

Well yes, it would be insensitive to try to contact the family about it, which is why it might be best if they just didn't do it, the blokes not even buried yet and these idiots are already jumping up and down on his grave shouting slogans.

It's one thing protesting against police brutality outside the police station, but all these false shows of grief are distasteful as fuck.

I could'nt agree more.

This is a disgrace - your advocating capitalising on a bystanders death for political purposes, How Newshamebore and how fucking insensitive. You see thats why to most WC dont bother with any of you lot or even go near radical politics anymore

It would appear that the family do want this to be about more than Ian's death. Not that this should come as a surprise to anyone.

Today Mr Tomlinson’s son Paul King, 26, branded the attack “sickening” and demanded a criminal investigation after viewing the video footage. He said his father had been at Monument station at about 7pm where he had been helping to sell the Standard.

He was trying to make his way home to a hostel near Smithfield Market but could not follow his normal route because of police cordons.

Mr King said: “This video clearly shows an unprovoked attack by a police officer on a passer-by. It is sickening. There must be a full-scale criminal investigation.

“The officer concerned and the other officers shown in the video must come forward.

“Questions must also be asked about the hyping up of the prospect of violence in the run-up to the demonstrations. An atmosphere was created in which this sort of conduct became more likely.”

Mr King told how his mother and sister are struggling to come to terms with his father’s death. He said: “We want answers: Ian clearly had his hands in his pockets and his back towards the police. There is no need for them to step in towards him.”

Aww, the family attended. I just saw his step-son making a speech on the news.

It seems like the meltdown lot are trying to hi jack the protest movement to me. They are related to royalty, attend cambridge and quote test from the novels that oxbridge says is clever and worthwhile. Plus their whole manner of speech is follow us, we have worthy high brow values, we are the upper class and the queen will save you all. Like we are all about to be knighted by the queen if we follow them.

off with their heads I say

Source and evidence?

(Not defending 'em, but the bolded bit just reads like randomly made up weird shit ... )

My source was from the Daily Mail,

http://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-520990/Revealed-The-young-activists-Commons-roof.html



reading the article now, this claim that they are upper class based on the criteria listed in this article could actually mean that loads of people are upper class.

But that is what the daily mail and all the right wing papers are good at right?

Anyway I based my observation on an article in the daily mail,

Er, that article's about Plane Stupid anyway.

 

[scott_forester]

I'm going with 'fucking poor taste' on this one

+1 hopping on someone's death to make a point is below the belt.

Some of the same people organised the G20 meltdown demo. I'm sorry, I based this on a crap article written by the daily mail, and i should know better, these daily mail people would love to break up protests and turn people against each other.
