A more serious one at that
And back to my question about Harwood, I don't believe there has ever been a police officer convicted for causing the death of a civilian. Despite there being several clear cases of this having happened.
I understand that they do need some protection in order to be able to carry out their duties effectively, but a thug is a thug and should be treated as such.

Could be me sounding ridiculous here, but have any of those who took part in the riots and have been identified been charged with this?
