Fucking looters and yobbos and rent-a-mob in London

[george formby]

A friend of mine was caught up in the rioting yesterday. He hid in the last place they would look for him.








The job centre....

Fucking up other peoples businesses and cars helps your own situation how? or does it just make you feel a bit better trying to bring someone else down?

You get to a point where you just don't give a fuck about anything, any more and lash out at the nearest thing to hand. All reasoning has long gone.....

A bullet found lodged in the cop's radio.

...which was a police issue bullet.......

Issue the cops with shotguns loaded with rocksalt!

That would get the kiddies off the streets.....and straight into a bath to desolve the salt lodged in their arse.

Bring out the army as well!

....little shits!, what the hell happened to morals!...poor bloody shop owners etc

True. They don't understand the implications of burning down a business. People can lose their lives, people become unemployed etc... Insurance companies up their premiums. I'm hoping they'll remember that they need to eat and sleep for 48hrs soon, and that the rioting is over as quickly as it began.

Apparently the barons are using twitter and other social networking mediums to coordinate the rioting peons.

They're having trouble finding any actual evidence of the ring leaders using twitter to do this. They have found evidence of Blackberries used to do it, again pointing at the cashed up drug gangs.

I very much doubt that we know a fraction of what is happening at the moment. The UK is one of the most heavily monitored societies in the world. Highest use of CCTV, best face recognition technology etc etc.
The real consequences of the riots will take weeks, maybe months to unfold, a few column inches on page six of a tabloid, unnoticed by the masses.
I expect over coming weeks their will be some very early morning calls for quite a few of the ring leaders.

It was a jacketed round, similar to police issue but this type of round was also found in the douche's gun! Forensics still underway on the whole issue.

Football hooliganism was almost fixed by hooligans all taking ecstacy and getting loved up.

All the young folk over there now are on the coke.

Heard them onto a boat and send them to Aussie. Sorted.

From what I've read the Queen street 'riot', if you can call it that, was child's play next to most other riots.

-Indy

Oh I don't know, cars rolled, smashed windows, looting... sounds pretty riotous to me. I was there, pretty surreal. Mob mentality is scary stuff.

[Oblivion]

Probably in due time, the idiots won't even know what they are rioting about anymore. Its just bonkers. Ignorant extremist at its worst. They think the only way to direct attention to themselves is to burn down a house. But at the end of the day, what have they gained? Nothing but a gutted homeowner who wonders why he deserved all this shit.

[PrincessBandit]

i'd love there to be proof that every single person rioting is doing it through altruistic motivation. I reckon there'd be more than just a few hanger-on-er-ers getting their boot in just 'cos they can. Stuff "we have a grievance" - maybe some are doing it because of that, I'm sure those people do have every feeling of justification for their actions. But 100% of them? I dont' think so.

Deploy the army, arm them with rubber bullets.

A very sad situation over there indeed, it actually makes me feel a bit sick that people can have so little respect for the country they live in.

The Spanish protesters "indignados" have been staging demonstrations, peaceful demonstrations here, a group of them have taken over an old building in town and hung banners effectively saying "we are fit and healthy we want to work and earn a living and be treated with dignity". Says a 1000x more than smashing up the town center. Long term unemployed here get nothing, zip.
