There is no where Cherie said it made it better....no one has said on here that it was ok what happened to this poor lad and his father. Twisting words and putting words into people’s mouths doesn’t help a discussion, neither does stating things that are not true.. YOU said they were tasered...they were not...so you lied. |

Also why were the police in PLAIN clothes , clearly the father & son thought they were being attacked. Looks like the UK is turning into America |

Well clearly the father and son thought they were being attacked...how scary and traumatic that must have been for them. No one is questioning that. I don’t know what world you have been living in...but surely you have heard of officers in PLAIN clothing...just like unmarked police cars ...the element of surprise and undercover ....and no the UK is not turning into America but that’s what some would like to make out... |

Well they have and it’s being investigated...as a result they are instigating new training techniques. This was an unfortunate mistake...it will have happened many times before and will no doubt happen again...not just to black people either. Sadly crimes like this involve young people and they get younger and younger. The police do their best...but sometimes get it wrong. Fortunately no one died because the victim that was stabbed is still alive. |

It’s so funny to me how many hoops people are willing to jim through to defend a 13 year old kid being ripped from his bike and his father threatened with a taser. Like this is really the hill you’re gonna die on??

...no it’s called seeing the other side of the coin and those that like to see the other side of the coin have sympathised with the young lad and his dad. |

There's no debate here, there's no 'other side'. The police officers attacked, didn't make themselves known and then apprehended and threatened a father and his child on account of their skin colour. That is the long and short of it. |

...it’s really upsetting to think about the terror this young boy and his father went through and it’s not something that will just be ‘moved on from..’...it will be very far reaching because of the trauma of the experience...and atm, all that’s being said is that they matched the description of ‘two black males’...it’s racial profiling at its worst...... |

Oh thanks Arista, I thought that is what they said, and at the time I did think it sounded wrong, but you expect these news channels to get their facts right

I couldn't imagine how terrifying it must've been for the kid, and I never want to find out. But tbf to The Police I do feel mixed on their response here as yes they can't just be taking people off their bikes aggressively (especially a child in this case) but if the kid did match the description of the assailant then I can understand the response even if I don't agree with it. After all if the kid had've turned out to have been the culprit then we'd all be congratulating The Police on stopping a criminal in his tracks.

Tbh there needs to be some form of communication between The Police and The Black Community in the US & UK about why The Police are so much more aggressive towards black people on average than they are to any other type of group? Like why are they so much more terrified of a black person than they are an Asian person for example? Once we can get to the bottom of that then we might finally start to see progress between the two sides as it's clearly more complex than "The Police are racist."

But they haven’t caught the criminal, all they’ve done is assault and threaten a child and his father because they were black, there’s no two sides to this

The boy is 13 years old....are you not aware of how many young boys are getting involved in knife crime. Look at the age that some of these young boys are getting stabbed and shot...usually gang and drug related. Its frightening. |

There is debate...there is always another view to any situation. Instead you just want to call out the police as being racist thugs. The boy fitted the description it was very unfortunate...it was a mistake. That’s the long and short of it... |

These police officers were racist thugs, incompetent to boot. They attacked the first black people they saw, they didn't announce themselves and then they threatened to taze a child, all while these innocent people thought they were about to be mugged. Ask yourself why you are jumping through hoops to defend the police in a clear cut case of brutality. |

Ah, so the black thirteen year old deserves to be attacked and threatened because he might be out gangbanging while on a bike ride with his dad...

Just a mistake. The police have a hard enough job.

If they can’t do their job without assaulting, threatening and traumatising a child, then they shouldn’t have a badge

I do wonder why The Police went for a 13 year old?
