Today’s Football 25/26 Season


It’s a 16 year old kid in blatant fancy dress with a blatantly fake gun. Get a grip
I hope my displeasure at the cops of the uk needs no further explanation, that outfit carrying that fake weapon is absolutely fair to be challenged.

100%.

Should have bagged it and changed at the expo. No right to walk the street dressed like that. Who's he think he is, former prince harry?

Come on mate - that gun is blatantly a toy it’s got a tiny orange barrel and assumably was just walking round

Sure challenge him and have a look at him - but wrestling the kid to the ground and charging him with possession of a imitation firearm is a joke

The tiny orange cap is not the barrel.

They are not allowed to assume.

Ask around, even this week, my view of the authorities and who they hire and empower has come to the fore.

They've no idea who's under the mask, it could have been hitler himself.

Sadly, the world as it is, such staunch reactions to possible deadly threats will be met with incredibly heavy handed force.

Wrong costume, wrong prop for the street, it was the wrong call. They had to confront in the name of perceived threat.

I don't like em, I never will, but, to call em wrong where I do - I have to call em right where they are.

so you reckon they should throw the book at a child going to a convention? Ruin his life for a cosplay?

No of course not, but, there is a line, and if freddy the nazi turns up and sprays a load of bullets around the convention then they get hammered for not stopping it.

Fire arms laws are there and established to cover this exactly. The problem is ignorance. On the kid and his carers/parents part.

The public good over rules the rights of the individual. They have to respond as to a genuine threat until proven otherwise.

And I have no idea how young the youngest school killers have been in the u.s.

Ignorance is no excuse, I dislike that platitude, but the line has to fall somewhere. Anyway, it'll come out in the wash, they haven't killed him (I hope!) and it serves as an example for the future.

I'm more pished off that a couple of blind people have been tasered for carrying samurai swords when they were in fact using their walking sticks.

The scum got off both times I know of.

Well, I guess at least they managed to not shoot or molest him, which is better than usual for the met.
