I once went to a sit-in (UK) against a police powers bill, and police literally started beating people on the floor with their shields. Lots of people got it on video.
The order was given to disperse, most people however continued sitting. The police then advanced with their shield wall and started clobbering/raking people on the floor using bottom of their shields. Truly was one of the most barbaric things I’ve ever seen.
Excuse the cringe beginning, I was only a kid and I was trying out a new ‘shtick’. The police violence clips you see weren’t recorded by me, but I was there when it all went down - I was just too busy seeing it with my own eyes to record!
