what really shocked me was that they looted Poundland in Peckham

i mean, how low can you go.....
There were groups of girls walking about Camberwell Road,in Peckham on Monday, deciding what to get looted that night from Primark ..... the UK equivalent of Walmart clothes ... real classy

Aldi was trashed Monday, that's Food 4 Less in the UK ...

All very true IMO , i have watched cameron since he got back and he has'nt even mentioned what happened in the first place (or what was supposed to have happened) to start all this ,he never even gave it a second thought and just went into nanny mode as per usual .
The fake ass IPCC took for ever to even find out gun was'nt fired but it dont matter anymore it's already under the carpet now.

The govs PR/media machine then went into overdrive convincing us all that they have dealt with all this trouble really really well. The mug shots ,public shaming and of course throwing every court proceedure and rule out of the window so they can find every person guilty without trial and without any comeback ,it is fukin sickening.

The message i get from all this is " if you mess with our establishment or even challenge it this is what you are gonna get."

yeah i knew that the story about him shooting at police would turn out to be less than the truth. i suspect we will find out that the handgun wasnt actually in his possession as well. after all he was pulled over in a minicab - quite possible that the gun belonged to the cab driver or someone else

apparently what made the original riot kick off in tottenham was the police laying into a 16 year old girl who shouted some abuse at them or threw a stone at them during the original protest. there was footage on youtube of her getting battered to the ground.

If this is the youtube vid your referring to, god knows how anybody can even see whats going on it's that shakey.

The cops also have the riot shields out at the end of the video indicating that trouble had already flared up before the video was taken ?
 
Another sad day to be British, again I wonder why i live here.

We need to get rid of the human rights act, give the police some weapons to beat some sence into these lazy trouble makers who i expect we pay for.

Whats gonna happen to them - oh a fine which again we will pay for.

Thanks Tony for the shithole you have created.

Problem with that way of thinking is that the next time there is a legitimate protest by normal hard working folk who have just had enough...will the police make the distinction between people who have just had enough of cutbacks and those yobs robbing and vandalising last week.
Do you trust police hyped up on adrenaline to make the right decisions and use appropriate measured force??

cameron the lizard (his puppet masters) has hired some american scumbag bastard (a "super-cop" according to the media) to supposedley advise on how to tackle gangs and "street violence",,,

where are we going?

imo these riots are (more to come id say) planned on a higher level,,, when the hell have people like this ever gone into so many cities in the uk at once before then done such pointless displays media porn? (random destruction and chaos) ,,,and i dont think this particular bs has anything to do with poverty or race at all for the most part the people doing it are opportunistic type thieves, like sharks, but they are from all backgrounds and dont look poor nor hungry nor particularly depressed by the opression the media is telling us they have suffered and are getting back for,,,

all been far too well coordinated, organised and publicised ,,, call it just twitter or loads of people just happening to txt each other throughout so many cities or what ever angle they want to put on it, but i dont buy it,,,

were watching a movie :lurk:

there's some slimey multi headed leviathan hanging(its actually looming over us and salivating) over us with its tenticles in every persons head and its spider legs footholds sucking the life out of every community it can con, in every continent,,, so many generations of our ancestors have been totally fucked over by these people and we just continue getting squeezed,, whilst it destroys the world in our name...

i dont know, this has way more too it than we can see watching tv. this shit doesnt just spring up for no reason at all; something has to have set it off. i really think the English youth are sick of the status quo, then with all the tuition costs going up and the breakdown of social programs, then throw in two cases of police brutality and murder, well what do you/we expect to happen?

Yes. Machiavelli would say "never let a crisis go to waste." Such is how the world is these days. The situation could no doubt be instigated.

Uprising will be dealt with the full force of the central state. UK is talking about censonring the internet (Twitter). Sounds a lot like the Middle East.

Problem. Reaction. Solution.

Anyone noticed the EDL yob gatherings?

Fucking hell.....These fools are all we need adding to the mix.

Makes me cringe seeing these people in their Harrington jackets supping cans of lager on the streets, airing their fucked up logic.

what you've got to do is make a distinction between condoning what happened and looking for the reasons why it happened at this particular time and places. i dont condone what went on, but i can see that there are underlying reasons why it kicked off.

inequality, and a society where greed and exploitation generally wins.

society sets some very bad examples and has created a whole underclass of people who likely think they have little to lose - which can be a dangerous thing.

one of the best descriptions of the rioting that i heard was 'violent consumerism'.

once it all got going, it appeared that the looters were getting away with it - so lots of people found it hard not to take the oppoyrunity to help themselves.
