    If they're used properly they'll be fine. When I say "properly" I mean constant charging and baton-swinging, not sure if their training calls that proper use though. :pac:

    When Catholics rioted in Belfast thirty years ago for legitimate reason they got forty shades of sh1te hammered out of them.

    Today in England the police are afraid to confront people who are clearly only criminal scum intent on looting and causing trouble. No wonder over 50% of people want to bring back the death penalty over there and leave the EU.

    I feel so sorry for the poor families, especially with small children or elderly, living in houses near the riots. Imagine how frightened they must be. Really sad and angry.

    They wont hear him as they are all watching Eastenders.

    What do the parents of these young people actually think their kids are up to tonight? :confused:

    Probably think they're in the local library brushing up on the classics I'm sure.

    I'll look it up but it'll take a while

    Lewisham, Hackney, Tottenham, Peckam

    Are these all around the same area? Or vastly different areas of London?
    Not looking for great details, just are they all in the East for example?

    I suppose reason I'm asking is one area can be controlled but if it was North, South, East, West it's a far bigger issue

    I know Lewisham and Peckham are both South East London, not sure about the other two. I was born in Lewisham, went back a few years ago to visit the place. Not the nicest of places tbh.

    Hackney is in North London. The riots are all over the place, even a few in the centre now. It's an absolute disgrace.

    Don't worry. The horses will be fine, the rioters not so much much.

    Police have said all photos of rioters/looters will be published .They have tons of cctv footage and must have thousends of photos .

    Having seen those horses in the flesh on duty at a soccer game in the UK I'm not worried about them at all, they're some scary horses.

    I'd say if they were harmed in any way or attacked the cops would proper lose it & then perhaps beat the living sh*te out of the fcukers.

    Hence the hoody/bandana/ballcap/scarf as a fashion item, anonymity and freedom to blend into a group.

    Nicking bikes from halfords now too....obviously not picky :D

    No, the Politically Correct term used nowadays is disadvantaged ethnic minority and this is the all the states fault and Britain for being an imperialist.

    This must be welcomed as part of Multiculturalism and if you question it you are a big horrible nazi racist.

    Oh wait, my marijuana induced liberal stupor is wearing off, Riots in London OMG! Lets all run to the suburbs like wusses.

    They're scumbags, plain and simple. The fact that they're black is moot.

    Interesting little tale from Upton Park just in. Hoodies there tried to attack a shop, and the shop owner and his staff came and beat them all up apparently.

    Am I the only person who has noticed a pretty high proportion of white people being involved even though most of the areas affected have relatively small white populations?

    Westfield shopping centre has now erected crowd control barriers around it, though no suggestion of looting in the shepherds bush area

    Looking objectively at the news footage it's actually a mix of all races. This riot has noting to do with race, just scumbags on the rampage.

    so this is the "urban yoof" culture that has been allowed to fester and even encouraged and funded, their instruments of choice are their moufs, which tend to be up to no good. should they have been given a voice and community workshops permit them to run their mouths, record it and become inspirations to further degeneracy. also common as muck is the slightly lesser-spotted middle-aged metallica-shirted fanboy who was interviewed urging police to deal with them firmly.. but I think that shows the type of cultural divide here rather than racial, and which side of the fence they tend to fall on

    btw is the are possibility of inspired copycat incidents here amongst our own majority skanger population? They usually take a leaf out of their brethrens book over there.. certainly heard many more sirens today than usual.. but maybe they're just nervous and making their presence felt

    No, I don't think you are. However when these things go down, some people see what they want to see.
