Seems so. 🤨

anarcho-what?

Never in a million years would I have believed that Britain would turn rogue. Same thing happening here in Canada. In fact, the entire Commonwealth is on the wrong side of history. My late father was a WW2 Veteran for His Majesty's Army representing the Union of South Africa. Thank God he is not alive to witness this grotesque betrayal.

Why do I get the feeling this policeman was trying to harass the lad into using the bat!

Was the tiny policeman lurking outside the shop waiting for someone to come out with a baseball bat? Why?

I still cannot believe they actually have unregulated stores in the UK that sell things you can hit, cut, bump, poke or slap with; additionally they also sell cars and trucks there 😳 and those can run people over. OMG, OMG, OMG

Buying a baseball bat from a sports equipment shop and carrying it home is obviously perfectly legal. I say ‘obviously’ but apparently its not obvious to PC Plod here. Yet another damning indictment of the appallingly poor quality of modern police officers.

Wait until the British police find out about cricket

This example of British policing is pathetic. The way this rolly-polly police officer clings onto the back of this young man is farcical, a comedy act. Surely, this is an instance where he could have established the facts (a bat to play baseball) before demeaning the police force

We're all waiting for confirmation this piece of shit has been fired.

Was ist der Cop für ein Vollidiot? Wenn das ein "böser" mit Baseballschläger gewesen wäre, dann wäre er nun im Koma. Aus Sicht der Eigensicherung und polizeilichen Vorgehens kann der keine anständige Ausbildung erhalten haben!

Oh no, a white lad with a bat!!!! Bring on the brown shirt goon squad 🤬🤬🤬🤬

Arrested for what? Enjoying a succulent aluminum bat?

Hope that police officer gets kicked out utter tosser

It would have made sense to wrap the purchase. Much like after purchasing steak knives at John Lewis. But the police response appears a tad over zealous.

The physical appearance of the young man was the decisive factor in his arrest.

Again.......... You're a cop. You can choose every day to either interact with criminals or normal people. Same pay either way, boss doesn't care what you do. Does it make sense now?

You can carry a sword in this country for religious purposes yet you can buy a baseball bat from sports direct and go to the park to meet your mates. @metpoliceuk policing in this country is a joke!

Another miniature police thug trying to overcome small man syndrome.

This idiot with the bat is basically fighting a police officer who is trying to do his job. What is so difficult about simply complying? No sympathy for that sort of entitled stupidity. If the perpetrator was black - everyone in the comments would be supporting the Police Officer. Yes, it's a funny old world. But we should at least try to be consistent. If a Police Officer asks you to stop then just comply, swallow your "pride", and you'll be able to go on with your day. Now this noisy fool will catch a charge, and it is 100% deserved.

He should have told them it was a machete he was taking home to sharpen

Remember Police are incentivised to CREATE CRIME. Yes you read that correctly because if there were no criminals they wouldn’t have their jobs.

Fighting Retard cops after Shopping and fighting migrants at the train Station only to fight Muslims because they want to rape your daughter.

People still aren't angry enough.
