Hasta Posted August 8, 2011 Share Posted August 8, 2011 Those police dogs should be off their leashes by now and tearing them limb from limb. If your on the street around the areas being shown on Sky News now your asking for trouble. Not one person there is innocent. Scrotes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RibbleValleyRover Posted August 8, 2011 Share Posted August 8, 2011 The police should be going in hard, but these days with human rights legislation we have made them toothless as they are afraid to be seen as being too heavy handed. These bunch of scumbags on the streets need sorting out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They are just a bunch of young lost souls, with a very bleak future, in a city were costs are moving way beyond their means. 'Bring in the army' FFS ! then we really will have lost it as a nation.

Hasta Posted August 8, 2011 Share Posted August 8, 2011 They are just a bunch of young lost souls, with a very bleak future, in a city were costs are moving way beyond their means. No they are not. The majority are common thieves and pricks who have probably always wanted to be involved in a good old riot like this but have never had the opportunity. For these people this is just a bit of crack no matter whose livelyhood gets hurt. It needs stopping now by whatever force neccessary. Otherwise one of these buildings set on fire will be next door or under a flat containing a nice, law abiding family of four. When someone innocent dies the finger will be pointed at the police or the government. It should be pointed at the kids (of all races I note) who have no point other than being a bit bored.

JAL Posted August 8, 2011 Share Posted August 8, 2011 By doing what. Not giving them free PS3's ? How about giving them the opportunity to do some WORK, when they hit sixteen or leave fifth form or year eleven as its now called. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mike Graham Posted August 8, 2011 Share Posted August 8, 2011 I was living near Tottenham when the 1980's riots took place when the scum murdered PC Blakewater. My father-in-law brought me round a shot gun and 20 cartridges and told me to blast the bast"""s if they broke in. Did anyone see black activist Lee Jasper on C4 News, it was all the fault of the police!!!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RibbleValleyRover Posted August 8, 2011 Share Posted August 8, 2011 Looks like it's spreading all over London. Some trouble in Birmingham as well. Police need to go in hard, water cannons, tear gas the lot. Or get the army on the streets, put the fear of god into these scumbags. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TugaysMarlboro Posted August 8, 2011 Share Posted August 8, 2011 Looking at a tweet from Kevin Pietersen, the England Cricket Team have been locked in their hotel in Birmingham due to riots. Chaotic scenes, the World is on its rear. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hasta Posted August 8, 2011 Share Posted August 8, 2011 Rubbish. The majority of people doing this wont be poor and in poverty. They are just doing it for the hell of it and using the economic position as an excuse. They know full well that they are endangering the general public's lives and livelyhoods but they don't give a damn. There's a guy just on the BBC who was trying to help a 90 year old woman to get behind the police line to safety whilst coming under a barrage of bricks and bottles. If that bottle hits that woman these 'youths' know the score whether they think they are underprivelidged or not. They are scrotes the lot of them.

Roverdale Posted August 8, 2011 Share Posted August 8, 2011 Some absolute scum in this country. Ballacks to anyone who says it's alright to do so. They might be in poverty but theyre creating poverty for a hell of a lot of shop owners and home owners that theyre setting on fire! It's a bunch of idiots jumping on a cause and causing as much trouble as possible. Release the dogs, the tear gas the batons everything. Get them in order! Also how stupid to do it to your local area.. clearly got the intelligence of a beetle between em. I'm a little bit worried Manchester is going to be next..... Also I don't buy all this kids cant get a job crap. I'm 20 and have NEVER struggled to get a job and I've also stuck around in education til uni.. if they get themselves to the job centre or out with a CV they'll find one. I've worked in a warehouse, in an office, in a shop, on the road anything I can get my hands on. Kids claiming there's nothing are just filthy layabouts waiting to destroy lives like this. I can't decide who's worse.. them for not trying or their parents for not making them try harder. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AspRover Posted August 8, 2011 Share Posted August 8, 2011 five minutes from my house now. And Sod any political angling, this is beyond any kind of political justification. It isn't a protest, it wouldn't have been prevented if the Tories had got in earlier or Labour had stayed in power - Its the thugs seeing an oppertunity and capitalising, end of.

joey_big_nose Posted August 8, 2011 Share Posted August 8, 2011 Totally agree that the people involved in this ritoting are total d!ckheads and deserve jail time. Getting immediate control with proportional force is the main priority. However those who think you can handle these idiots in the long term through the baton and tear gas are misguided. Most criminals are made not born. If we don't want this sort of thing to happen its about having insight into the causes that create the situation and addressing them in an intelligent way. Some of those causes will undoubtably be to do with poor government, other poor opportunities, and others the culture which has engendered in the localities. Suppression is useless in the longer term. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SAS Posted August 8, 2011 Author Share Posted August 8, 2011 Some serious issues in these communities. 80% seem to be young black males. Some of the scenes are shocking. Where's the respect. And why aren't the police storming into them. I don't think these youths deserve protection and human rights. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mike Graham Posted August 8, 2011 Share Posted August 8, 2011 Great, riots starting 5 mins from me now in Clapham.... According to BBC News this minute not a single policeman to be seen in Clapham.
