VicPol villain Luke Cornelius fronting the media now.

Apparently will not just be dispersing protests on Sat, they'll be combing the suburbs looking for people who MAY be going to protest. Why not just fit us all with ankle bracelets and get it over with? #springst

Also complains that policing protests 'takes precious resources away from effectively policing our community'.

That would be technically true if the police were effectively policing to begin with. Violent crime has been soaring for years, but police focus on FB posts. #springst

And GET THIS, he says #ZoeLee arrest 'terrible optics', but that he 'considered the circumstances about whether it was appropriate' and is 'are absolutely satisfied the members behaved appropriately'. #springst

"It's important to remember, when we put someone in handcuffs, we're not putting them in handcuffs for all time."

Unbelievable.

"Hand cuffs were removed from that person once the premises were secure."

How in God's name was the house insecure? What were they protecting themselves from, the kids' toys?

"Our members did everything they could to secure their safety and the safety of the persons involved."

Tell that to #ZoeLee's kid who was literally hiding under the bed. #springst

"We take suspects as we find them."

In other words, putting a pregnant woman in handcuffs in front of her own children over a Facebook post is common practice. #springst

"I won't apologise for holding selfish people to account for serious breaches of the public health orders."

We're talking about a Facebook post here. #springst

So there you have it. No apology, no contrition. Only regret is that it was 'bad optics'.

@VictoriaPolice are out of control. @LisanevilleMP must rein them in or resign. This kind of police behaviour is unacceptable in a free society. #springst

And a reminder, this is the VERY SAME COP who said he 'respected the right to protest' before the Black Lives Matter rallies. #springst https://twitter.com/TheIPA/status/1300697630691917826?s=20
