[QUOTE=thirty9th;24863222]So we should set other countries to lower standards for murder because they're not western, democratic and rich? The Rwandan Genocide is happening in Africa, so they should be able to get away with it. It's cool.[/QUOTE]What can we do? Invade them? Oh wait

Man, I am actually getting a headache from this.. I wonder if there's any point in continuing with someone like yourself but I will just leave you with this to think about; It's the law there. the law. Unless your a anarchist, you know the law needs to be respected, whether it's a curfew keeping people from going out simply so shit like this doesn't happen, or its a law against going out and randomly killing someone. Get that into your skull and perhaps then you can accept the fact that what the cops did is well within their rights. Different countries have different laws, in some countries, you'll get your hands chopped off for stealing, in others, a wristslap. Learn to accept the fact that different states have different laws, and that it doesn't matter what law it is, it is there to be followed. Unless your a anarchist, "woo, down with the government man, they b oppressin' me, with dem laws".

[QUOTE=thirty9th;24863111]Okay, let's completely ignore tear gas, riot shields and other humane methods of quashing a riot. Go straight for the pistols and assault rifles, right?[/QUOTE] Heavy riot armour and shields and training and riot tactics are nice ideas for us first world countries, I'm guessing you've never seen what a riot looks like in Pakistan or India

why the fuck is every body calling them korans ? is there some world wide joke im not in on ???

We should accept the fact that countries have unjust laws? Whether or not a government is democratic, hell it could even be a dictatorship, that government/military force is [i]in the wrong[/i] if they deny the inalienable right of life to a human. If you don't believe a human has a right to life, there's no point arguing. It's lazy and naive to sit back and accept that there are injustices and say 'fuck it'. Had the rioters been organized rebel groups or an opposing military force, it would have been a different story. But it wasn't.

Must have been some real shocking attacks I did. And I didn't know that keeping people from going out on the street in places of unrest is denying them of their human life. Or is it just you, taking shit out of the air and applying it to the discussion like it's actual facts, when it has never been mentioned anywhere.

I don't give a fuck what you say the genocides in africa shouldn't be happening, they should be criticised and frankly, we should have troops there stopping it.

And pardon me for adding an 's'. Should have been 'attack'. Whether or not the curfew is unjust is a moot point, it's the consequence that we're discussing here. An angry mob probably doesn't care about the curfew, one would think. Do you sincerely believe that death is an acceptable and reasonable punishment for breaking curfew?

[QUOTE=OleWally;24862520]Sweet[/QUOTE] You just confirmed yourself to be the asshole i figured you were. Thanks.

Couldn't they just spray them with water, teargas, rubber bullets or whatever? This is not the right way to handle a riot.

[QUOTE=johan_sm;24865371]Is that a cardboard vest?[/QUOTE] May aswell be, the police look just as ghetto as the rioters

If those pictures are any indication of how the police there are outfitted, why the hell didn't they use those rifles to fire some warning shots in the air? I've yet to hear of a crowd that doesn't run from automatic gunfire.

Burning posters of Barrack Obama? If you had told anyone that when he was elected they'd say you were full of it.
