Watch the video.…brutal

[SirNotAppearing]

Detained is newspeak for stomped head into floor.

[MABinPengChau]

My new word for today: affray. I don't think American English uses this word to describe brawling. Learn something new every day. Watched the video, cannot figure out what was happening there, beyond the obvious stomping. Will see if a better synopsis of events exists.

The guy has assaulted and broken a female police officers nose. Probably deserved most of what happened to him but the kick and stamp seem inexcusible and id be shocked if the police officer didnt, at the very least, lose his job.

[MABinPengChau]

More details. Pretty sure he can get a job in the US after all of this, feels supremely qualified.

As usual, the video only starts once the police are in control.

What led up to that definitely matters, however kicking in the head once prone was OTT. Not going to go too well for the cop.

so the past tense of that would be affrayed?

oh it's nothing they were just affraying
