What was the policeman supposed to say? "Alright sir if you don't want to step out of the car, drive safely and have a good day".

Mikey - 'There is no evidence that the Policeman would not have lost his temper if the chap had got out of the car.'

Erm, did you think before you wrote that?

AOG Maybe this will dismount you from your high horse:

"The officers involved in the incident have been identified and have been placed on restricted duties".
"Scotland Yard now says officers had mistaken the man inside for "a man who is of interest to police"".

So basically, they had GOT IT WRONG and decided to get angry about it.

So it is of little wonder that the INNOCENT (sorry, but he was) bloke in the smashed up car videoed the scenario.

Have you learnt anything from this?

"I'm sure even you, Answerprancer, can easily think of several examples".

Why "even" me?
I have no problem admitting that I make mistakes.

"Quite a few people "think they have done nothing wrong". But, of course, they have done quite a lot of things wrong.

'Nothing wrong' as regards *a specific incident* not generally in life DB - get a grip.

DB it tells me a lot about you that you have to finish an otherwise rational answer with such a provocative last sentence, but I won't rise to it.

'So basically, they had GOT IT WRONG and decided to get angry about it.'

haha! purely anecdotal but reminds me of a mate back in the mid 80s who
got stopped by the Police who looked round his car and found nothing wrong.
He asked them 'Are you going to charge me with disappointing a Police Officer!'

I refer you to the provocative last sentence you previously threw at DB

/// Nothing wrong' as regards *a specific incident* not generally in life DB - get a grip. ///

People in glass houses, should not throw stones.

[Zacs-Master]

Oh, the irony.

[Answerprancer]

So you think that is a perfect example of tit for tat hypocrisy?
Oh dear. There was nothing provocative in what I said there, it was in keeping with the subject matter.
People in glasshouses ha, you live your life here in one great big Kew Gardens palm house afaic with people regularly tearing down your thinly disguised xenophobic postings.

Anyway ...what is more important afaic is your response to the post I made at
00:36?

So it turned out that the chap in the car was right all along, and the Policemen involved lost their temper and reason nothing.

Well, well, well....who would have believed it !

Mikey444. "The cop had clearly lost his temper, and was a danger to anybody around him."

I agree with Mikey444 - who would get out of the car when someone with a baton is going berserk.

Ed...here was manic.
