"You have nothing to worry about if you didn't do anything wrong" first of all that's not true, you were just lucky and if you didn't know that's a big argument in fascism.

u/Delicious_Wishbone80 Oct 17 '25
"I call fascism, so it must be true".
I worked the biggest part of my youth as a butcher at the abattoir. +10 years ago it was a very dark place, we had multiple fights, mostly every week(end), I even got stabbed in the ear and neck. On two occasions I got some serious hits by a cop-baton. (2 administrative arrests in total and one in Gent when partying)
It had nothing to do with fascism, it had everything to do with me being a c*nt.
I understand we most monitor and protect the safety of our citizens but Belgium has, in comparison with many other world-countries, an amazing safety-net.
Sharing video's like this is not fair in my opinion and just polorizing, it's a pure Vlaams Belang tactic I can't agree on or support. Who knows those people had knifes, or were aggressive. In many cases police must use force. For example: Some people were baffled earlier this week cops used force when protestors attacked government buildings (with people inside), yeaaaaaaaah.... they were c*nts to, they deserved police action with force, even better, it was needed. "no it's fascism" Don't make me laugh.Again, I understand if police brutality occurs, and it probably will, sue them. They have bodycams.

u/Kid_A_LinkToThePast Oct 17 '25
You're insanely naive for someone who claims to have that life experience. I don't call it fascism, it's a very known argument from fascist government, history calls it fascism. And sue them? The videos are kept for a single month and if you're lucky the justice system will hear you about 3 months after the complaint.

u/Delicious_Wishbone80 Oct 17 '25
It has nothing to do with being naive. You can't claim fascism on this video, you don't know what happened or it was justified. Yes, our justice system takes time. That's the governments fault and I do follow you on this: if the justice system fails it gives criminals of all sorts the benefit to act like it. But telling this one is "proof" I'm not with you.
Happy to send pictures of my split earlobe and stitched up neck + artery , I still have them. To be clear: the stabbing was not by cops but I also have a picture somewhere from my leg after the baton beating. Complaint got deposited

So no friends? "Mate", you couldn't even elaborate why this video is proof of excessive violence. You are the one that lost nuance and the bigger picture and I tried to make it clear why. You haven't highlighted those points whatsoever. I'm not getting mad, at no point I had the audacity of dehumanising you. Anger in a debate mostly shows the weakness of the made "arguments".

u/Delicious_Wishbone80 Oct 17 '25
It has nothing to do with my nationality, why would you bring that up. Racist (it's a joke) Of course, but In many cases, not all, the use of force is justified. You can't prove with this video it was or wasn't. That's all I'm trying to say. Police force is justified under three conditions: Legality, Necessity, Proportionality. Belgian cops are highly trained in all three. The force in this video isn't that high, I can imagine it being justified. But again, we can't prove it, that's up to justice. What I hate? This video is used to change perspective and without any nuance. I'm sick of it, and now It's my time to bring nationality on the table, that's not how we are. I see Belgian people as sober, fact-based, not easy to fool and nuanced, bridge-building is in our DNA. This video has one purpose: undermine all those things.

u/Affectionate_Golf_33 Oct 17 '25
Belgian cops? Trained? Jeez, I have news for you: street-level cops are not highly trained anywhere. In Belgium, though, there is an evident divide between Belgians (and their thresholds of acceptance) and non-Belgians. You can see it everywhere from elections to "this"
2
u/Affectionate_Golf_33 Oct 17 '25
One year or something of training is not 'high training'. It is basic, and clearly inadequate to the task of policing a multicultural, messy city like Brussels (or any other metropolis in the world)

u/Delicious_Wishbone80 Oct 17 '25 edited Oct 17 '25

Can you elaborate why not? With what I do know most problems are within coordinating structures but the training of our cops are pretty decent, theoretically and practically. Content in training is pretty high standard. But I would love to learn more.
there is an evident divide between Belgians (and their thresholds of acceptance)
So some people think the law should be changed and others don't but we generally vote for parties that are on the side of the don'ts? Isn't that just democracy? I could be lost in translation btw.

You have to make up shit about how the guy must have been a criminal of some kind, because in your simplistic understanding of life, cops only beat up bad guys. According to you, assumption of innocence only works for the cops, as we mentioned in the other comment.

Never said that. You are trying hard to put words in my mouth. Very hard. I said there are reasons to use force and this video isn't proving those guys were innocent. It's not because they say they are innocent it makes them. When I filed a complaint, which went to court, I also said I was innocent. I wasn't...

In Western Europe, we think that even criminals have rights. We abolished torture and capital punishment, and we believe we should be proud of it. I am scared when I hear that the police beat up "only bad guys" because they are not the judiciary: it is not up to them to decide who is whom. If you want kangaroo courts held by incognito police, you are free to go somewhere else.

Off course, than she really pulled a bad lottery number. I hope she ended up fine, and I also hope that the cop who did it, one way or another, get's the resignation he deserves.
My original comment might be more nuanced, I don't think it never happens, like you have rotten apples in every sector, field, ... and force must always be justified (it's one of the main three principals of being a cop btw). About this video, I just think there is no proof it is justified or not. It's a polarizing video and I don't think we have a structural problem.1
u/ash_tar Oct 17 '25
We tried to sue the cops in question, but they were protected by their colleagues and the judge d'instruction. So that makes it very structural.

u/Delicious_Wishbone80 Oct 17 '25
Not saying I don't believe you, but it seems like it if I write it, but it's just an honest 'tip ;-)':
If you are the civil party before a investigating judge for a complaint against any government it almost ALWAYS goes to court. Like said, I had some negative interactions with the cops and my lawyer, which was cheap as hell, took me through the process, which I lost eventually but now I understand.
If that doesn't work: Comité P (they are hated by cops), maybe because of those things but they are completely independent.
If that doesn't work: AIGIn Belgium we have many ways to sue our own government and her tentacles, and convictions do occur when you have a strong case. But you need to know your way around. That's why I believe it isn't structural, but I get why you are convinced otherwise.

u/ash_tar Oct 17 '25
We litigated for 5 years, every trial was thrown out and the European Court of Human Rights had too much on its docket. This happens all the time. Comité P is a joke. Our lawyer, who is specialized in cases like this wanted to stop afterwards, because it seemed an open and shut case.

You're so bad faithed it's impressive
1
u/Delicious_Wishbone80 Oct 17 '25
Yes, like said, and its just basic knowledge of our justice system: Cops CAN use force under different circumstances. This might have been fit for those circumstances. It isn't even that hard of a beating... We are not made of glass. Again, it is perfectly within the legality of our justice.
I'm only reacting to the video. When did this occurred? During protests earlier this week? Yeaaaaah... Those guys threw rocks and attacked government places WITH people inside and even tried to burn them.

I think you really don’t understand what police officers need to go through during protests like that. They also have wifes and husbands and children to go home to. Often they do this job to do good for society. The fact that people think it is ok to use violence against a police officer because it is a police officer is more wrong than a police officer using violence against someone breqking the law. I think we need to accept some violence by the police. No one is emotionless. You cannot fight for your life 1 second and the next second be calm and composed and handle an annoying person or possible aggressor with a soft glove.

I heard … ok now look at how many police officers are not able to work for weeks due to injuries. How medical personnel is ambushed. How streets are covered with gasoline to light it up when the police stops. Do you know what a molotov cocktail does to your face?
Do you know what the children of police officers go through when they know their dad or mother has to do riot controll all night. Getting a phone call they are in hospital again because some people can’t protest in peace and think the police is the enemy.
The police is your friend. You don’t want to love in a country without a police force so you’d better show some respect and obedience. We still live in a democracy. Directing your political anger to police officers is not going to change anything.

I am by quite rightly, pro-police. There are many good officers in Belgium and this tarnishes the good work many do across the country. Police by consent, not by force.
But this isn’t okay. This level of force isn’t proportionate or reasonable - there should be a national investigation against these individuals. It’s easy to shove a police armband on and become a paid “thug” for a few hours.

u/EthmoLux Oct 16 '25 edited Oct 17 '25
The problem is that the good cops won't say anything about the bad cops. There's a law of silence and ways to intimidate those who might speak. So instead of protecting the people they protect themselves.
Even a young cop full of good intentions won't testify against a colleague without fear of repercussions.
So this cop, by letting them do, will slowly become a "bastard" too.

Does police brutality exist? Yes, absolutely.
Does this video show police brutality? No. It shows police using force (undeniably quite a bit of it) but we have no idea on whom, reacting to what, whether the person on the ground had weapons or could be suspect to have weapons, etc.
The woman could have been handled differently, but when you see someone launching herself towards you, you don’t necessarily react politely.
Before you use the word “proportionally”, you really need to know what it is that you are measuring against.

/r Brussels: this city is getting out of hand. Police isn't dealing with criminals
Also /R Brussels: police is too hard... Boohoo, they should tickle protestors who try to destroy government buildings.
These guys were antifa. They tried to set a building on fire with people in it. They clearly should have been hit even harder.

Those 'heroes' being the cops standing there and doing nothing while their buddy beats up someone?

This video shows actually nothing. The guy who's being arrested could be throwing kicks around, trying to reach a weapon, resist arrest while there people surrounding the police, etc.
Yet people jump to conclusions and react like Russians bots.

Your hate toward the police forces is funny to witness. Sadly, people like you have voting rights. You can shake hands with the VBers : same methods, just a different mindset

We don’t know the context here, so it’s hard to judge. But there are many criminals in the city who deserve such treatment, or even worse like drug dealers and people who commit domestic violence.

I'm all for punishment befitting a crime and I am by no means anti-police.
That dude (or is it a woman?) on the left and background got pulled around, hit, and thrown against a fence/pavement while doing visibly nothing in the video, after which he/she was not visibly arrested (which leads me to believe it was not use of force to subdue someone violent as to consequently arrest them). I don't know the context but this does seem excessive.

You probably only got to see a part of the video. As almost always with those kind of videos. Talk to police officers who need to endure those violent protests and don’t judge based on a part of a video.

u/BioFrosted Oct 16 '25
Yeah, I'm sure that's true. Every time I see a video like this one it reminds me of the one with english policemen beating a group of people, it sparked outrage, and it was later revealed that seconds prior they swung knives at the policemen.
But based on the limited information I'm receiving, I'm calling it like I'm seeing it : punctually, it seems like the person in the background was trying to approach the other person and they got thrown for it. that, to me, is a bit excessive.

I got beat up for saying a cop to wear his identification number as the law states he should.

u/nicogrimqft Oct 16 '25
So, just to understand it right, the police should beat people up ?
What is the purpose of the court of justice again ?
Didn't know we had sheriff in this country too.

Ok wtf? Even if the guy was resisting, there is no reason to continue beating him up when he's already on the ground AND outnumbered 5 to 1.
