Nearly every single person in the photo is videoing it 

Is there technology that can be used through the group photo, to ID these thugs

They are taking photographs - the UK has many faults but has yet to make the taking of photographs in public places illegal.

Rioting and criminal damage.

I imagine this must be a bit like how a kindergarten teacher must feel...

 

The person I was replying to suggested that those who were taking photographs should be prosecuted. Since then, we have gone round in circles with angry old men venting their anger over the toppling of a statue, but none have actually been able to identify any criminal acts that these people who were witnessing this historic event took part in - because being present when a criminal act is taking place is not normally illegal in itself.

Try that BS in Singapore. They don't have bands of thugs running around encouraging criminal behaviour.

Yes, but until Bristol becomes part of Singapore, or until Singapore law becomes applicable to the people of Bristol, your point is irrelevant.

Indeed it is, but I can wish, can't I? Sad to see the nation of Pax Britannica descend into chaos because its leaders are gutless.

Ha ha, we werent suggesting that they get arrested for taking photos , it was what they were doing prior to the photo being taken, the 56 policemen didnt injure themselves and that statue didnt jump of the plinth himself , and by the way, less of the ageist and sexist labeling , thanks .

Ha ha - are you the spokesperson for Bogda now? Has he and every other contributor to this thread confirmed to you their intentions when they commented? 

 

My point remains, the police are making arrests based upon the evidence available to them. Being present is not a crime. If you have evidence that all those in the picture actively assisted the assault on the police officers or partook in acts of criminal vandalism themselves then you have a civic duty to bring that evidence to the authorities. Otherwise, you are accusing people of criminality without any basis for it.

No, suggesting that people be arrested isn't accusing said people of criminality .

It works like this .

People get arrested > The prosecution provides evidence in Court >The defense gives their defense and the Judge then decides whether they are guilty or not .

  Its frustrating having to explain the basics

Those filmed earlier and here causing damage or assaulting police or others should be identified and brought to justice.

 

Those filming events, are simply filming something. However, what could be interesting is if they are identified and asked to submit those films to the police as evidence. Failure to do so could be interpreted as obstruction. But I doubt the Avon and Somerset police will go down that road. One or two token arrests, police cautions, maybe prosecutions of Boris or Pritti gob off. 

 

Filming an accident, could get you in bother though.

Did that actually make sense in your head as you typed it? If so, no wonder you are frustrated. Thankfully, the real world in which we all live is much less dystopian than you describe. You see, you missed out a critical step in the process - people get arrested based upon evidence. Oh - and judges don't decide the guilt or otherwise of a defendant. We have trials by jury in the UK.
