With you on that Kirky. Couldn't we just drop them off at Clumber park? I saw some trees there that needed a hug.

 

Total waste of resource keeping this mob in check.

How can you say that? With the coppers beating someone up when they haven't done anything?

 

This isn't China you know. Sometimes I really despair when I read some of the comments on this site.

 

You lot really are pathetic with these cliches.

presumably the same ones identified by the media if that's where the images were taken from. Who've have thought that an independant forum would be self censoring more than the free press!

You know the rules around here. Sheffield Forum isn't a democracy. It is as you say 'an independant forum' and as such is not available for hijacking or misuse.

Didn't we single out and clearly identify a specific protestors a few pages back? No one seemed to care about that happening.

This is NOT for discussion. If you think that a particular post should be edited or removed then please use the 'report this post' facility.

 

To reiterate, if the topic cannot be discussed sensibly then the entire topic will be removed.

i concur.. all these clichés of the police beating people unjustly are starting to wear a bit thin..

 

frankly, if these idiots haven't got anything better to do than waste police time and cause large scale upset then they deserve a clunk around the head with a baton..
