I'm sure you are not. Because you stay in the area still under UK control. What little is left of it.

Except that the video doesn't show what its title claims. It shows an extract from a much longer (May 2015) incident, and then repeats it. Let's take a look at what actually happened:
The selective video starts around 9 seconds in and ends 14 seconds later, fading out just before.... the suspect gets TASERed.
All you're doing is cherry-picking disparate exceptional events and distortions to construct a false reality to suit your own bias and bigotry.

No, some police officers were guiding the public away. Other police officers - and members of the public - stood and faced the terrorists, buying time until the armed police turned up and shot the terrorists.

Whatever makes you think the 2011 London riots were a "Muslim" thing?

Oooo! Please tell us where the "no-go" areas are? It really would be helpful, because despite living, working, socialising, shopping, etc., in London for the last 17 years, I don't know which bits I should have been avoiding.

Failure to understand difference between "park rules" and "criminal law" duly noted.

And look at the body language of the police officer by the railing and of the teenagers he's talking to at this part of the clip after the knife-wielding man has been put into the police van.
Neither look as though they are particularly fearful

Hmm. I think that wakeupslave dot com is probably a bit of a conspiracy site. Although I am only basing it on the domain name
Are you telling me that it is misrepresenting what it is showing?
I'm not the least bit surprised the Brits are defending the cowardice of their officers. The outcome of this 11 on 1 confrontation was a clear victory for the criminal. More importantly, it was a moral victory for criminal gangs. If British police can't handle an 11 on 1 fight without cowering first, then it shows how easily they can be defeated. The criminal elements in the UK watch these videos. That's why they easily have their way with British officers and declare swaths of land as their own.
In what way was it a victory for him to be arrested and for there to be no casualties, and for the police to have used the minimal force required to arrest him?
I'd rather the whole social structure was such that the police thought it worthwhile completely outnumbering the knife-wielding criminal than an outcome where lethal force was used when it obviously wasn't needed.
Who cares? It depicts UK officers with their tail between their legs. You'd rather argue the difference between a rule and a law than show disgust at the officers' cowardice.

A "clear victory for the criminal" as it "got pepper sprayed and then TASERed in the face, arrested, and bundled into a police van." And seriously, they're not "cowering" but rather distracting and containing the suspect until the officer with the TASER can get a clear shot. Obviously it's not very helpful which bigots and liars edit these videos to give a false impression to would-be criminals, but that'll be the fault of the bigots and liars, not the police.
Which "swaths" would they be? Still waiting for you to identify them.
It shows it takes an incredible amount of police resources to apprehend one lone suspect. The incompetency is on display for other criminals to exploit. I stated in my OP, I'd rather not have my police be so incompetent that power vacuums emerge leaving citizens vulnerable to criminals gangs.
Please read the OP
Don't you think it was a bit dishonest of the initial video editor to stop just before he ended up getting effectively stopped by the police? It changes the narrative quite a bit.
