Two sides to every story, isn't there?

Excellent one sided story again.

The guy was hounded by the media simply because he had blood from a head wound.

If you watched BBC news 24 yesterday you can see this man attempt to antagonise a policeman standing before him, llash out at the policeman and throw objects at a policeman.

Notice that he declined to say that to the media as they interviewed him though?

Unfortunately you didn't see the police medics who gave him medical attention for the cut to his head. Stopped the bloodflow and bandaged him up.

If you had been watching TV you would have seen this too. Perhaps you could get some TV footage of this to even up your story?

Two sides of a coin, two sides of a story. Again, get the footage from the news just before he got lamped and put that on the site.

I bid you good-day.
