Dogs and babies on demos

If a demo is one that's likely to kick off, don't take your dog or baby there you muppet. If the guy was pushed over with the baby then I blame him not the cops.

No one was expecting the demo to "kick off". This demo was titled "Carnival Against the Arms Trade", not "Lets' All Get Tear Gassed by the Police". The only violence perpertrated was by the police, no one else was hitting anyone with batons or spraying tear gas in people's faces.

I witnessed the police pushing the man with the baby from behind, a line of police jogging in pushed him out the way when he had his back turned to them. He shouted at them "I AM CARRYING A CHILD" which they could clearly see from behind him. One of the cops held back from the rest of the police and pushed him again in retaliation, presumably because the main with the baby had dared to challenge his violent behaviour.

If you blame a man carrying a baby for being pushed over at a demo then you are either a filth or a wanna be filth.

Of course a copper who pushes a guy with a baby is a twat but demos like SHAC or EDO are always likely to kick off. To take a baby to such an event is plain stupid.
