before i start, i do feel for the family and its bad losing a dad anytime...BUT...lets now get it twisted...i distrust the police as much as the next man (god knows i got some tales)...but this time, everyone blowing this up - it aint them.
They pushed him.

FACT.

He fell down, got up and a few hours later died from a heart attack in a newsagents near his home (not in moorgate).

FACT.

Heartattacks are only a few percentage points away from impossible, in killing someone from a fall...
internal bleeding, head trauma - yeah...heartattack? if it was lethal from the fall, he wouldnt have got up again.
the only possible way was if he got so scared thinking about it later on, that it shocked him into a lethal heart attack.

mans talking like they coshed him to death on tape or something...as said, i distrust the police, and ifeel sorry for the family (truly i do), but theres one thing i hate most in life, and thats when people get the blame for something they aint done, or unfairness....god knows you can pull the police up on other things they do and did that day

met police are horrid, worst in the country. too bitter at something in their life to be taken seriously as law enforcers, their crowd control is disgusting, too quick to make a meal of the slightest problem. talking with 1st hand experience

lo said...

it is awful that he died so shortly after, but my god he should never have been pushed like that in the first place regardless. hope something gets done about this big time.

Everyone, if you are that annoyed with the police and their tactics, the Stop The War Coalition are organising a protest for Thurs. Details below. Sorry it's a bit long!

See you there!

STOP POLICE BRUTALITY

> In January this year they brutally attacked demonstrators

> the police have raided the homes of some of those that
> protested.
>
> The tactics of forcible corralling - so called 'kettling',
> police assaults on overwhelmingly peaceful protestors and home
> raids on participants add up to to a major attack on the right

> The Stop the War Coalition, the British Mulsim Initiative and
