Disgusting... The Coppers are gloating on their forums, the public will be disinterested in three years and the family have an agonising wait ahead of them...
Makes me sick.

There's the link... admittedly the thread has run the course and is now locked, but it seems some of the police are being cool headed on there and some are not accepting the fact that this man died and keep resorting to the 'he shouldn't have been there' or 'he could have easily just have spat in a coppers face' before he was shoved over...
Don't get me wrong... some of the coppers on that forum seem to know their beans, yet other reek of ignorance...

Unless Mr T. had turned round to the officers and said "I'm having chest pains" or "I'm feeling unwell" then the officer in question did NOTHING WRONG in pushing him "
