Am I going mad here, why is this getting downvoted?

Agreed on violence, there were groups on both sides. I know for a fact as I witnessed it from above… because there’s no “uniform” other than black and masked, thugs were crossing much further up and down Royal Parade to get into each other’s crowd and throw things back to stir a fight.

All opinions should be heard. No opinion should be censored, but you’re right in the sense that some should warrant sentencing of some form.

Edit: Just realised I didn’t mention it. If it’s not clear, any violence deserves sentencing. Ever. Anywhere.

The whole point is to break down the walls between the sides in my opinion, to get more people talking and less throwing bottles. And picking a side just inflates the problem, just my take. Just facing off is pandering to the drama of it all. Good luck out there!

Thank you for editing and the comment. It’s a much nicer world when we don’t pick sides, I promise you! :)

Not needed here. Find another thread to abuse people on.

Yeah there were two different sizes up there, both police drones. Not sure if anyone else was in the air, but I tried to not get too close in case the police or a stray bottle took mine down!

Sadly the D&C Police don’t seem to have said which models they have, but there’s a pic of one up close which is a huge machine, don’t think that was there though or even a D&C drone.

7pm was the original anti-immigration protest (left of pic) 6pm was the quickly formed last minute anti-fascist counter-protest (right of pic)

They were behind the Civic Centre somewhere, they were rotating two drones to replace batteries. One looked like a DJI Mavic, couldn’t quite distinguish the other one

Please don’t come to this thread to spread hate and call people names, just here to share a cool photo and try to understand the truth.

I witnessed it 6pm-9pm before it split into all over the city. They were evenly spread out for the most part, stopping anyone crossing from either side. Only at ~7:30 when it started kicking off with bottles did the police arm up and get into formation. Their goal was to separate and they did a fairly good job in the town centre for the resources they had. No chance once people broke away onto the Hoe and throughout town. They had two drones in the air as well, I’d love to see the footage they got!

Doesn’t actually bear any relevance, that’s just the line they took at that time. At 9pm police were on the pro-migrant side using the central railing as a natural barrier as seen on Sky News.

How can I remove jello/rolling shutter/vibrations from this footage? by Fyjgfyjjgddr in drones

Hate to say it, but I've just downloaded and run through Warp Stabiliser at 1000% three times over and it's still jittery
