The official police statement said: "It's alleged a 17-year-old boy … threatened an officer, before being arrested and taken to Surry Hills Police Station. He was subsequently taken to St Vincent's Hospital for observation before being released into the custody of family pending further inquiries."Protesters were pepper sprayed inside Central Station after a Black Lives Matter rally in Sydney.

When asked about the footage, NSW Premier Gladys Berejiklian said, "we still have a long way to go in our country".So many incidents in Australia's history would have benefited from video evidence A hand-drawn image by Major Thomas Mitchell of Aboriginal people on the day of the Mount Dispersion massacre in 1836.

Then in 1832, a party of white men shot and killed two Aboriginal elders , a young Aboriginal man, and a pregnant Aboriginal woman, with musket balls, and buried their bodies. The murders supposedly took place in revenge for cattle being speared.

That's so sad.

“The stand-out feature of the US protests has been the amount of police brutality caught on film.” Police brutality is not my direction or way forward.-API🌅

And you have the gall to hashtag this nonsense as ANALYSIS! Here’s my hashtag - defundABCnow

So people want to commit crimes (looting,arson ect) and don’t expect the police to respond. If you are approached by a police officer and abuse and attack them why can’t they use reasonable force. If you are being arrested don’t resist and give them a reason to use force

Oh just god shut up

Everyone who deals with police should record them quietly it will save ur life also people should learn the law and their right because police will lie and falsify evidence it is legal to record police and u don’t have to give ur details unless u are being arrested

I guess you have only been focussing on the police then? There has been brutality on all sides. Are police sometimes brutal? Yes. Mostly? No. Do they sometimes have to be? Yes. Do they cross the line? Yes. What of violent looters, arsonists & murderers? Where’s THAT analysis?

Same is happens in Australia thankfully I have a phone now and I have spent recording police corruption and abuse for nearly 3 years police own research says corrupt police refuse and hate being made accountable and refuse to apologise if wrong because makes them look weak

Its not difficult to capture something that is so pervasive.

Seen plenty of rioters and protesters being brutal. Biased reporting yet again trying to fuel the hate. ABC should be listed as a terrorist organisation. 🤪

It still pails in comparison to the 60s and 70s footage of police and national guard violence towards protesters. Haven’t seen police dogs biting people or a Kent State incident yet. But not far off I suppose.

Analyse this

The brutalty demostrated by US police makes Hongkong police looks like gentlemen. Yet the western leaders condemned Hongkong police heavily while keep silent on US police. That's hypocrisy and double standards went crazy. Shame!

If BLM has it way and the Police are shut down and defunded, what happens after that? Asking for a fiend...

The stand-out feature of the Great Leap Forward has been the amount of counter-revolutionary brutality caught on film.

The footage of people being brutally bashed and killed by rioters appears to have done the memory hole.

You people are sick.

I can't believe we actually pay for the ABC. Mind blowing

Really fake news

Really it’s not the burning cities? What a joke of a media

The other is BLM ate terrorists

I’ve actually noticed the looting and violence by many rioters. When is this story running?

Please reduce funding to the ABC it is spreading very fake news. ABC and Ita please do an expose on Aboriginal communities and the violence, rapes, deaths, abuse of children and all that goes with it all while we pay billions each year to the industry

A standoff feature is the way in which MSM and now the parisitic ABC caused the riots.

And

Which police brutality are you referring too? I’ve see police being hit punched and run over. The ABC stopped being journalists long ago. It’s just garbage 🗑 now.

& grhutchens - Yep, hundreds of businesses destroyed, looters gleefully stripping the stores, people being savagely stomped and kicked - but that police brutality is the worst aint it! ABC, you're a joke!

Wow. A lot of shooting the messenger going on. It seems like the Trump message of ‘Don’t believe your own eyes’ is working.

AkireTe I am so utterly tired, sickend and just saddened at the sheer volume of videos showing police bashing people in the US....

Drivel. But expected from the ABC...

You mean that the police are bad and instead this is the new norm that we must all emulate?

In Sydney too ... fancy that !!

Under Democrats and the left, there will no law and order, no migration laws, no military, and land where you come out of your house

LOL look at this. BBC and ABC both deluded

MEDIA BULLSHIT, MEDIA ARE JUST FAKE NEWS, CREATE PROBLEMS, INVENTED AND PROMOTED THE RUSSIAN HOAX, EVIL, MEDIA IT'S SO OUT OF CONTROL,

You mean this type?

Those thugs give the police a bad name & detract from their goals. Trump’s call for law & order has fallen on deaf ears.

Also the lies & manipulation of the facts by theirABC. Stay tuned for more more of their FakeNews as America progresses to another realDonaldTrump presidential victory.

Not the looting? Not the destruction of properties? Or the killing of police officers? Shame on you ABC

And this ‘analysis’ is why I no longer watch theirABC .

SageAU Imagine what happens behind closed doors

Putting the Force back into Policing- not that it ever left

The stand out for me is the dead eyes of that African American police captain who was shot over a TV

I can’t even deal with ABC’s blatant covering up for extremist groups like Antifa and BLM any more . It’s disgraceful.

If you're not going to be unbiased don't report anything at all

Thousands of buildings looted, vandalised, burnt, 15 deaths, who knows how many injured. But sees what it wants to see. SocialismKills

If you’re not seeing the amount of violence committed against police as well as the general public by “protesters” then you’re trying to not see. Once upon a time journalism was about providing a balanced and fair report. So I wouldn’t call the abc ‘journalism’ anymore

What about Aussie protests? I've seen QUITE A BIT of police brutality in Sydney. Not the least of which? Assaulting a DISABLED ADF VETERAN. Bloody DISGUSTING! So WHY aren't you investigating/reporting on the conduct of NSW POLICE?! ABC is biased AS... blacklivesmatteraustralia

Trump would call it fake news. I would call it completely unbalanced reporting

News in 2010

Another stand out has been leftist media ignoring the impact of protesters. I.E the death of Former black cop, destruction of black businesses and housing, all the other murders... Silence.

No it hasn't. That's only in the leftist social media bubble. The rest of us are seeing horrific antifa inspired violence, and listening to media telling us they are peaceful protests.

In this thread - people not able to read any other news source all of which are saying the exact same thing.

BLM? Apparently not to ABC

BAD FAKE MEDIA, ABC, WHERE'S THEIR EDITOR, IF POLICE ALL RESIGNED WE WOULD BE ALL DEAD, CIVIL WAR, , SEEING THE RIOTS AND LOOTING OVER THE WEEKEND , A VOTE FOR DEMOCRATS AND ALZIMIERS JOE IS A NO LAW AND ORDER OPEN BOARDERS VOTE

The stand out features were the looting, rioting, thieving, and the threatening abuse directed at the Police. Did you expect the Police to wear kid gloves in trying to protect the rest of us from these thugs ?

Lmaooooooooo 😂😂😂😂 You’ve literally got an article on your site right now that repeats police spin of Central station gassing when there’s an abundance of social media footage that actually tell us how yesterday’s protest actually went down 🖕🏽🤡

You missed the whole grand picture. Like, massive destruction of public properties and businesses.

I thought self defence was GG..?

For me the standout feature of the US protests was young white people breaking windows and looting. Does the ABC staff not watch its own 7 pm news.

Probably riots i'd wager

Honestly ScottMorrisonMP if you don’t do something about the ABC you’re not doing your job.. sorry.. but this is now out of control

Looting, burning?

Hahahah! How about the amount of brutality caught on film from the rioters!

...no it isn’t, the stand out feature is the looting and senseless destruction of people’s businesses and vehicles, which has nothing to do with the death of George Floyd.

Actually the stand-out feature was the looting and rioting and destruction of property... oh, and the numerous (mostly black people) who these 'protesters' have killed. Sorry Aunty, we all have the internet... nobody is buying your leftist propaganda bullshit

analysis: The stand out feature of the ABC coverage is, yet again, the absence of facts and the promotion of disunity and anarchy.

I'd say the FakeNewsMedia ignoring the widespread AntiFATerrorist violence and property destruction is surprising. DefundTheABC

What would theirABC have the police do? ffs. theirABCDINGOES

In response to the outright mayhem, violence, looting, vandalism, destruction, assaults, murders comitted by rioters...also on film. 2020Protests FakeNews

Seriously have you been under a fucking rock what about all the ordinary people getting the shit bashed out of the

Really? Not that they have cemented commitment to positive change by corporations and government alike? That’s not the standout? Any fair analysis of the body count/ casualty list on both sides is not going to be helpful.

Fake news.

Stand out feature is how blatant the disconnect is between what mainstream media shows and what is actually happening.

At least 3 police officers have been killed by 'protestors' so far.

What a disingenuous pile of tripe this is. How do ya like this: Defund the ABC!

No mention of the 11 or do people murdered by rioters? Or the violence and destruction by rioters? No? Nothing? Fueling the flames even more journalismisdead

Interesting take. Most fair minded individuals will take away the media's framing all this upheaval of as more anti-Trump garbage. Millions still buy into your propaganda, but thankfully the significant and overwhelming majority cannot un-see what they've seen. They smell a rat.

Appreciate the hard Left anarchist position. I think we need a perspective from a normal Australian perspective as well.

Really? You aint been watching many videos uploaded then eh?

The only brutality occurring here is the standard & divisive narrative of your journalism.

Seriously 🙄 The MSM truly has become a joke !!!

If you were forced to work in burning streets as a pandemic givers above you... how do you think your patience would be?

Maybe the black men murdered during the riots may deserve a mention 🙄

ABC's continued use of emotive language & lack of fact checking = BS. Of the 2,608 people who have died in custody since 1980, 500 were Indigenous and 2,104 were of non-Indigenous background (source: The indigenous prison population is ? %. Do the math.

There was also a white person pushed by a young punk cop as he and others walked past the guy with blood coming out of his head or ear. Shows it is wearing uniform is a power trip

What stands out for me is the lack of reporting of stories like this.

Here's a statistic TheirABC won't tell you - During the riots and looting 15 people have been murdered by 'protesters'.

How about the blatant looting under the banner of BLM? I see that as a standout. A very valid cause high jacked

Multiple police (including black officers) seriously injured and members of the public killed by protesters, neighbourhoods destroyed by riots, and that was the take away for the ABC

The stand-out feature of the US protests has been the ABC's ongoing deceptive, misleading and agenda driven journalism. It's continued misrepresentation, lack of balance and perspective. Also your proficiency in race hustling and sympathy for terror groups stands out above all.

That’s the reason TheirABC should be given at no cost to Newscorp

No its not you clowns

ABC you're a disgrace

ABC gets all their news from CNN

The standout is: One man lost his life and other people destroyed property, beat up and killed other people as well as stole from businesses. THAT, is the Takeaway!

Pretty much..

Not the looting? Or deaths? 🤦‍♂️

What about all the other violence? I'm glad I don't watch ABC news anymore.

What about the innocent people bashed and killed, what about the killing of police officers, what about the killing and maiming of animals on camera. What about the destruction of property and communities! ABC is a joke!

What do you want the Police to do, stay there and just allow the aggressive protesters and looters to do as they please? How about the Police that have been hurt? This story goes two ways. There are bad ones both ways.

But the media isn't there to catch the looters or the brutality against the Police is all about the media still trying to get even with Trump because every single outlet in the world got his election wrong and looked completely stupid.

Was that your June 6th talking points from your overlords? Please people do your own research and stop reading propaganda

SeanBradbery They deserve all the karma that comes their way.

DefundTheABC

Mmm I must be watching a different feed. I've watched police being killed

The stand out is the selective footage aired by fake news in which the ABC is complicit!!

This is just a blatant taxpayer-funded left-wing propaganda outfit. Isn’t the ABC mandated to be balanced?

BlackLivesMatter

Sure it is.

It's interesting to see the establishment media supporting the rioters and damning the police. I guess you are pushing the Globalist agenda?

So all the innocent lives and business lost are not stand out? Gotcha.

The stand out feature is a glimpse of what will happen if the left is allowed to govern,no law and order...

The standout feature is corona disappeared. Absolutely fascinating. Just like that. Gone.

When it happens so much, it isn’t luck that it gets captured on film it’s just a part of the police landscape. Time they changed their view. PoliceBrutality PoliceReformNow

all of the fundamental issues is the police corrupt use of power and how little they are held to account when they abuse it. it manifests itself in treatment of black people but its across the board. and i hand on my heart still believe most police are good people.

The stand out feature has been the sheer lawlessness and the betrayal of police by effete leaders

SELL there ABC

A stand-out feature of the protests in the United States has been the amount of wanton property damage, looting and violence against fellow citizens including the murder of a number of African Americans. DavidDorn

Ffs really

Absolutely. Cringe to think what these pigs are getting away with off camera.

Both sides have been incredible brutal.

An Incredible amount of Violence. Even though they know people are watching! Imagine what they’ve got away with in the past.

Yes

The stand out feature has been the fuelling of racial tension by MSM TheirABC through bias deceit and deception. FactsMatter

Medical personell, we forgive you if you decide to sit the next wave out. COVID, protests

So when do we talk about the police that have been killed and injured along with the property and business's that have been looted and destroyed?

ANOTHER RUBBISH ANALYSIS that actually incites racial violence by conveying misleading facts or convenient ommision of crucial truths, in general perpetuating misinformation with potentially harmful consequences. Once again media has shown its deplorable & abhorrent conduct.

What a bullshit statement. I don’t know who writes this stuff but you need sacking

The amount of PoliceBrutality and PoliceBrutalityusa and policeviolence in America USA is astonishing. I guess pigs are no different in any other country

Who the heck pays for this PROPAGANDA? We need to rally all over the world to cut all funding to msm propaganda machines out there.

Weird, I thought the stand out feature was the crap bias far left CCP bought reporting that is being highlighted over and over.

That’s one of the scariest things to come out of this whole thing. Law enforcement lying until video evidence is presented. What happened to upholding truth? I’m not surprised Americans don’t feel safe.

Not just police brutality, the US administration brutality to other less fortunate nation by sanctions.

So the destruction of property and livelihoods doesn't warrant a mention?

Propaganda for nitwits.

If there were no cameras, how many of the people hurt by police would the police explain as 'They must have tripped and fallen'? ------ If there were no cameras on George Floyd, there would probably be some made up excuse for his death.

I'm sure business owners would disagree with you

Yep. It's been a terrific god send for the media. Poor result in Aust where reporters struggled to get any decent storyline. The virus news is getting boring and not much happening in sports. With some luck a second wave will come along. auspol COVID19Aus BlackLivesMatter

Analysis: Rather the stand-out has been FakeNews ignoring all the unconscious white people being repeatedly kicked in the head & the miraculous dissolving of genocidal Covid restrictions

still not talking about the people the Rioters have killed? So when exactly are you going to do that? A lot of them have either been Hispanic or Black.

And... BLM destruction. Looting. Stealing. Destroying. Killing. Maiming. ABC Antifa activists supporter.

How deluded 🙄

Perfect picture, Police officer putting out a fire.

Keep hating the police it helps ensure Trump is re-elected.

ABC does CCP propaganda

Getting harder to hide from the cameras. Also, in before all the Murdoch bots calling for defunding

Why I never want to hear 'just few bad apples' again. BlackLivesMatter

US police officers charged with assault after shoving 75-year-old protester to the groundIn video of the incident, two officers push the protester and he hits his head on the pavement. Blood spills as officers walk past. One officer leans down to check on the injured protester before another officer urges their colleague to keep walking. Disgusting. Should be charged with attempted manslaughter. And 57 of their co-workers walked off the job in support of the officers. Sermsblike a great opportunity to recruit 57 people who aren't abhorrent thugs. and you would thought any decent human being would check on the injured man police officer or not. alas it seems being police officer(s) in America means throwing out the humanity out the window 🧐
