The French would have deployed water cannons against the protestors

that and as they were arrested given a good kicking prior to throwing them in the police van

they would have all got another kicking at the police station

French plod for you ;)
It takes about a dozen Austrian Police to beat up one protestor.
What are the incidents about?
In particular, two videos circulated on the social media and showing incidents at the Klimademo caused a stir. A video published on Twitter one day after the demonstration shows a man being held on the ground by several police officers, while another officer is beating him with fists, the scene being partly obscured by other police officers.

On Monday evening another video appeared showing the arrest of a German activist. He was lying tied on the ground by two officers, his head under a police car that was about to leave. Before the activist’s head was possibly run over by the car, the two policemen pulled the man away or up at the last moment.

Austria: Incidents of police brutality continue The Austrian authorities continue to ignore serious indicents of police brutality and have failed to end the ill-treatment of detainees, Amnesty International said in a report launched in Vienna today.
Supported by eyewitness reports and medical evidence, detainees have reported being repeatedly kicked, punched, kneed, beaten with truncheons and sprayed with pepper after restraint. The victims are mostly non-white foreign or Austrian nationals and in many cases police are alleged to have used racist language.
“The image of a brutal and sometimes racist police force is an ugly one. The Austrian government faces major embarassment in Europe and abroad if it allows rogue police officers to beat people up and get away with it,” Amnesty International warned.

Austria
There have been several highly publicized incidents in Austria where police have either tortured, publicly humiliated, or violently beaten people—in some cases, to the point of death. While the most notorious of these incidents occurred in the late 1990s, incidents as recent as 2019 are being investigated by the Vienna Police Department for Special Investigations

Austrian police 'brutal and racist'
Foreigners living in Austria say they are encountering growing hatred in their environment. They attribute this to the climate of intolerance nurtured by Jarg Haider's Freedom Party.
https://www.independent.co.uk/news/world/europe/austrian-police-brutal-and-racist-282564.html
Haider is a son of devout Nazi parents.
Transam is doing his usual trick of pointing the finger anywhere else in order to divert attention away from where the real corruption, brutality and racism occurs.

But a few Austrian politicians are ex Nazi SS Officers. Some are convicted Nazi murderers, but still elected in Austria.

Bigotry is taught in the home to children by their parents and other relatives.
What else can one expect.

You told us, transam, that some of your Austrian relatives, your grandfather, and uncles were officers in the SS and gestapo, volunteers to the Nazi ideology.

What is it that folk do not understand about this?

It's a similar thing with BLM. BLM is not saying "Nobody else's lives matter".

It is saying "Black lives matter as well".

Women are not saying "men feel safe", are they?

A short time ago there was a gathering honouring the life of Sarah Everard, allegedly murdered by a member of the police...

There was a vigorous police response and arrests made under 'Covid laws'...

How come the police stood back when people broke 'Covid laws' to 'honour the life' of a 99 year old privileged man?
Will be interesting to see if only 30 people attend his funeral on Saturday as is clearly laid out in the rules :-
Funerals and linked commemorative events
Funerals are allowed with limits on attendance, and must only take place in COVID-secure venues or in public outdoor places. The venue manager or event organiser must take the required precautions, including the completion of a risk assessment.

Funerals can be attended by a maximum of 30 people and may take place indoors.

Of course only 30 will attend.

Funnily enough parliament was recalled early to 'pay tribute' to a 99 year old man...

Why was parliament not recalled over the summer for the tens of thousands who apparently died of the 'virus' earlier?

Tens of thousands were apparently dying but parliament wasn't recalled...

Do you think that one privileged 99 year old deserves more respect than all of those 'ordinary' people?

So you want parliment recalled for a sitting every time somebody somewhere dies do you?

I'm just wondering why someone is apparently more important than someone else...

Do you believe that 'prince philip' is any better than your father/mother/brother/sister, or any other family member/friend you care to mention?

Or indeed anyone else on this planet?
