What Was Going On Around You?

What was going on in the surrounding area, that required the police to pen you there? You were, after all, being held there for a reason.

Don't forget that at each of these events over the past few years, police forces have been ordered to clear the streets, and have engaged in illegal mass arrests in order to do this. When the need for the streets to be cleared has passed, all charges are dropped, and everyone is released.

The Elite has gotten its way, and carried on virtually unopposed.

Perhaps this is an attempt to avoid the legal ramifications which follow, as activists charge the police with illegal detention.

You Were Held For A Purpose
