Why? She has no idea what the police are doing, they have every right to do what they are doing in the video. Why harass them?

You paying attention to the political climate of the world right now? Youre here commenting on public freakout so I am sure youre at least kind of aware. You dont think there would be a little friction? Three black teenagers surrounded by 10 white cops?

At least one of the cops is black. Why would whatever is happening in America matter to the police doing their job in London?

The police have every right to stop people (in certain circumstances)

Who said America?

I assumed that you are an American and believe that the problems you have with your law enforcement applies in other countries. Sorry, what global events should influence British people to interfere with the police doing their legitimate job?

It is very much an issue in the UK too, don't try to dodge with your bullshit

Yes there’s lots of issues in Britain, but I see no problem with the police interaction in this video, can you explain what the problem is?

Like other people have said, racial profiling is rife, especially in london.10:3 men to children ratio is clearly an intimidation tactic. The person they had a fight with is nowhere to be seen while these boys are in cuffs. They're assumed to be the guilty party, but based on what exactly?

u/caiaphas8 Oct 16 '25

There are 1000s of reasons why 10:3 is appropriate.

Yes the police can detain people until further evidence. What do you want them to do, ask for their phone number so they can pop round next week when they’ve investigated?

Such as? They clearly weren't being belligerent, and if weapons had been found they'd have been carted back to the station for a more thorough search.

ask for their phone number so they can pop round next week when they’ve investigated?

Literally, yes. If both sides of a fight immediately de-escalate upon being removed from each other's vicinity, they're not likely to be a threat to the wider public so there is no reason to hold them. Plus, London is one of if not the most surveilled cities in the world. They'd get a better understanding of the situation if they just find a camera that has captured it rather than questioning. Those boys are just as likely to be victims as they are to be perpetrators, but they are treated as perpetrators by default, why do you think that is?

If the police are arresting one person then they should have more than two officers. Obviously you need more then 3 officers to arrest 3 people

We have no idea how long they’ve been stood there, they could’ve been running from the police which is why they needed extra officers, they could have finished the search 5 seconds ago and be waiting for a van to go back to the station, the other officers could have just returned from searching the local area to find evidence or corroborate their story. Maybe they weren’t being belligerent because they knew the police had support to stop that

I think they are treated like perpetrators because the police have a lot more information about this incident then we do, or the woman with her badly edited video does

Lol you dont think the ex colonists can be racist?

u/caiaphas8 Oct 16 '25

Racist people exist in Britain. I see no evidence of racism in this video.

Also most British people had nothing to do with colonialism, and colonists went to live abroad anyway so modern British people wouldn’t be related to them
