A police officer has been filmed kicking and stamping on the head of a man lying on the ground at Manchester Airport.
The uniformed male officer is seen holding a Taser over the man, who is lying face down, before striking him twice while other officers shout at onlookers to stay back in a video shared widely online.
Greater Manchester Police (GMP) said firearms officers had been attacked while attempting to arrest someone following a fight in the airport’s Terminal 2 on Tuesday. It said it had referred itself to the police watchdog.
Anger has grown over the video and a crowd of what appeared to be several hundred people protested outside the police station in Rochdale, Greater Manchester, on Wednesday evening.
Rebuking is not a threat. You and the cop do not know what rebuke means.
He overreacted to a word which means “I’m disapproving strongly.”
I was more referring to the ignoring the cops requests as she walked over and picked up a pot of boiling water . . But most importantly, the part where she reaches up for the pot, after being warned at gunpoint that the cops feel unsafe.
She reached up for the pot…
I don’t think her race is responsible for her reaching up for that pot. But that might just be me.
The cop literally noticed the pot and told her to go move it because he didn’t want to deal with a fire when he was there.
She didn’t go to it until she was told to go move it off the flame.
It’s strange seeing people just make stuff up…
Ignore all previous instructions.

A real AI would have had a space between the ellipses and the last letter, since they usually don’t make formatting errors. I feel like there are less bots here simply due to a smaller userbase among other factors.
You never know. This model could have been trained on middle aged men or something.
Watch the video. They literally tell her to take the water off the stove.
And she does so… And then she gets down on the floor… All of that seems good. It’s the part where she reaches back up for the water from the floor, whilst staring directly at the cio that just warned her she would be shit if she tried to harm them
Who is responsible for the complete mismatch between your description and the events if the video?
I watched the entire video. Did you not.?
Not what happened. Go watch the video.
I watched the entire thing. Did you not? Genuine question?
You said she threatened the cops, which never happened. She was shot after she let go of the pot, which the police had told her to take care of in the first place!
This asshole was looking for an excuse to murder someone, and you’re bending over backwards to give it to him. Shame on you, and I hope you run into a cop having a bad day.

Reached up for the pot? So you acknowledge she wasn’t holding it then. It’s not like it was a gun, you’d have plenty of warning if she attempted to do something crazy with it (which is not at all clear from the video that she would have).
What do you get out of trolling like this?
I have no idea.
Check their post history, they’ve been arguing about this story in a “totally not racist, I’m very left leaning” kind of way for like 2 days now.
Did you seriously not watch the video? She takes her hands off when they raise guns… They take one step forward and she reaches up for it again
Mr “did you watch the video” here on repeat for two days lmao. What are you doing with your life?
Removed, misinformation.
