I have no sympathy for these thugs. Imagine what this poor woman went through? Not an isolated incident. Image Unavailable, Please Login Image Unavailable, Please Login
1930s Berlin... you'd fit right in. This lady said and did some stuff you don't like. She didn't hurt anyone, but cops should shoot her? Animals.
Whatever. I'm 100yo and I've never been tackled by the police or pepper sprayed. Are you also suggesting that she was just walking innocently down the street to the shops when this happened? Come on man!
I'm not 69, but I chuckle every time Dale says he is so I wish I were. Maybe, just maybe, you can find something a little bit less severe than an impromptu firing squad for an old lady in the street speaking her mind?

You don't know what she had been doing... Neither do I, but you choose to judge anyway! I suspect she provoked them. The police don't just jump on unsuspecting innocent people. Again, why was she there? If it walks like a duck.....
I judged? You're the one who sentenced her to death based on a short video. Sorry, dude. You do not have the high ground here.

This is the important bit.... “Police anticipated a highly volatile situation on the weekend and had strongly urged people to refrain from participating in protest activity. Despite warnings, an estimated 700 people protested in clear breach of the Chief Health Officer’s directions."
… yet the incident is being investigated. “The incident circulating on social media has been referred to Professional Standards Command and will be investigated.” It’s a tough situation for all sides and all sides need to be responsible for their own misconducts. Illegal protests or not. Most protests are illegal… that’s part of the point. I’ve seen protestors trampede non aggressive officers as well. Not right by my book. It’s an F-d up situation for all sides, but no, she certainly does not deserve to be shot for just standing there.
Mixing with violent people breaking the law terrorising people and destroying property. As per the police warning! If you're warned and go anyway, then you're accepting a certain amount of responsibility I say. Bummer for her. She'll think twice before doing that again Now they are barricading vaccination sites. Committing the same thing to other people that they're protesting about....the right to decide. Idiots.
It may have been wrong of her to do that but there is no reason those COWARDS should have shoved her to the ground !!!! And yes I have a lot of bias against these bastards for the way they treated me but my father always taught me to never hit a woman .... especially some old woman ..... This whole COVID episode has been an excuse for people on both sides to behave badly
What if she hit them first? Or spat at them? We can't judge because we don't know, but why was she there?

Well here's her crime. I didn't realise protesting was one of the five reasons to leave home. FYI It's not. Breaking the law. Give her a fine and if she resists then arrest her. Open and shut case.
