Alfie Moore
He's an excellent entertainer, but sadly no longer typical of our Police.
He has experience, wisdom and common sense.

I had a run in with the law yesterday and they were surprisingly professional.
I was in a ward at a hospital picking up a family member with a broken leg, there was a violent guy there, clearly on his way to being sectioned, with two police officers to restrain him. I saw them at work for at least a couple of hours and they were nothing but compassionate, even with this guy spitting at them, stamping their feet, kicking them, and calling them all kinds of cunts. I could not have maintained that level of patience and restraint.

why do you think that you could not maintain constraint given that you had
noted that they clearly needed sectioning?

Because he was so tiringly violent. I'm not a violent guy but I'd probably reach my breaking point within two hours of physical and verbal abuse.
The guy was at times posing quite a risk to patients and staff in the ward (he kicked a doctor and knocked over a disabled girl and scared a load of people away), I'd have at least wanted him on the ground to cuff him, and by that point I wouldn't have minded using a bit of violence to get him there.
But these two young police officers were great, they kept him on his feet to cuff him (which took a long time with him fighting back) and afterwards sat him in a comfy chair before loosening the cuffs.

'tiringly' violent rather than 'effectively' violent?
i am sure they would have taken trained action had it been the latter

They were certainly taking trained action. He was only ineffective because the police handled him so well is the point.
Literally and figuratively.
They let him burn himself out physically, then verbally (ranting about Nazis, needles, the future, and how everyone is a cunt and trying to kill him). Eventually I think he must have had to pay his oxygen debt and went into shock.

and you are saying that you are incapable of such restraint?

Are you mocking me?
I'm not a trained fighter or a trained law enforcement officer. I'm not trained to deal with these situations. I admire those who can keep their cool under that kind of pressure. What's the problem?

I think what he was getting at is that he's never been in a fight in his life.
But would be prepared to start dropping some serious fistbombs if somebody got all up in his grill. Or something.

Just logged out to look but it's strangely quiet today.
Shame, I was looking forward to the claim that he's been trolling everyone with his highly convincing pretend internet breakdown, and we all fell for it. Cheers.

I think the week’s gap between the very specific, blinkered, hectoring of Dogbomb
Rules that out unfortunately.
