has been disgraceful and anyone who thinks they would never find
concentration camp guards in the ‘enlightened’ modern era have
had that myth busted big-time. The period and se ing may change –
Wetikos never do. I watched film footage from a London march in
which a police thug viciously kicked a protestor on the floor who
had done nothing. His fellow Face-Nappies stood in a ring
protecting him. What he did was a criminal assault and with a
crowd far outnumbering the police this can no longer be allowed to
happen unchallenged. I get it when people chant ‘shame on you’ in
these circumstances, but that is no longer enough. They have no
shame those who do this. Crowds needs to start making a citizen’s
arrest of the police who commit criminal offences and brutally a ack
innocent people and defenceless women. A citizen’s arrest can be
made under section 24A of the UK Police and Criminal Evidence
(PACE) Act of 1984 and you will find something similar in other

citizen’s for reasons I will come to shortly. Anyone can arrest a
person commi ing an indictable offence or if they have reasonable
grounds to suspect they are commi ing an indictable offence. On
both counts the a ack by the police thug would have fallen into this
category. A citizen’s arrest can be made to stop someone:
•

•
Causing physical injury to himself or any other person
Suffering physical injury
Causing loss of or damage to property
Making off before a constable can assume responsibility for him
A citizen’s arrest may also be made to prevent a breach of the
peace under Common Law and if they believe a breach of the peace
will happen or anything related to harm likely to be done or already
done in their presence. This is the way to go I think – the Common
Law version. If police know that the crowd and members of the
public will no longer be standing and watching while they commit
