This baby wasn't done feeding and you won't guess what happened next!

The woman was within her rights and I disagree with the officer.
That said... "horrific experience," my confidence was shot", "complete shock", "(was left) a right mess", etc. Really?
Someone stole her baby.
I can't believe that a security guard managed to walk up to someone, grab a baby and walk off with it without thinking that these actions might not be a good idea

Allegedly.
Its an irritating aspect of law, you can find a murderer by a body, gloating even and until they've been found guilty at trial they are still the 'Alleged'
its particularly irritating in real life
This is shit you go over day one with new hires in security.

Mothers are usually protective of their little ones. Having her young child snatched right from her was probably a very unpleasant experience.
The company said it had investigated the customer's claim and reviewed CCTV footage from the time in question.
It also said it had spoken to the security guards on duty, who "deny behaving in the way alleged" and who did not fit the description given by the customer.
It concluded "that the customer's allegation is not supported by the available evidence to date".
If you breast feed in an area with children around, is that okay? As an unintended consequence the breast feeder may be forcing a nearby parent to explain to their kids what they just witnessed.
For the record, I'm fine with it. But I think this is one of the arguments brought up by people against public breastfeeding

Yes, this is an argument I have heard people spout off as well. It's like they cant handle their child actually knowing a simple fact about humanity.

Is that person stripping and pissing in the nude necessary to a baby's good health and well being? The fact that you can equate those two is hilarious to me.
I expected to see spatulas, ladles and assorted cutlery.. Not a suckling child. I didnt cause a scene, attempt to pry off the child or call security.. it wasnt a "trigger" event. I was just taken by surprise and awkwardly removed myself from the area.
We fed in public, but it was normally in a designated spot or under a small blanket.
The only problems here are being created by parents who fail to adequately explain that women have breasts and use them to feed infants, and that it's not this horrifying display of debauchery.

This doesn't feel fake to anyone else? The story is based purely on a Facebook post and the only evidence that exists seems completely contrary to the claim being made.

Good points. Children should learn that breasts are solely sexual accessories -- you know, naughty bits that always have to be covered up.If you breast feed in an area with children around, is that okay?

It seems very suspect, and I'm surprised BBC News ran with it. I was at least expecting to read she filed a complaint with the police, but it looks like she just posted the story on that advocacy Facebook group, it blew up, and the police contacted her.

What?I don't agree with her and I don't agree with the officer.

Envy is a powerful thing.
I spotted a feed-event at a Target a few months back right in the middle of an aisle. The mother made no attempt to find a secluded space or cover up. Just had her bit popped out and the kid was going to town. We saw her, made extended eye contact and I walked backwards a few steps and turned around.
I don't have a problem with public feeding, but the blatant disregard for even an attempt at modesty caught me off guard.

Why is everyone against the woman finding a secluded/safe place to feed? Most, if not all mammals will seek a safe/out-of-sight location before feeding their young. It's instinct. It protects both the mother and children from predators. Popping everything out in the open COULD be taken as not only socially and instinctually inappropriate, but also as child-endangerment.
