It seems you lot are still at it - taking the police version of events (Mk II) as the true one, this despite the fact that their original (Mk I) version - that there had been an exchange of fire - has now been totally discredited! Are you really prepared to go on believing this account for the next 30 years, after which the truth finally becomes available to all?

Incidentally, it does rather look as if the Met are still operating along the lines that Merseyside Police were in the '80s. Ironically, kids in Toxteth are not being stopped and searched now in the way they were then; the same cannot be said for young blacks in London. That's well known there - and that's what triggered the riots.
The effect here may have been a copycat one, but it doesn't mean we don't need to look for other, different, underlying causes here too!
