They have the ability to stop fires as well which would be useful.
Oh god that interview with the poor woman...
[QUOTE=Jsm;31610603]You use lethal force against lethal force, not against people setting fires.[/QUOTE]
This.
[QUOTE=Deiru;31610578]Reports of it kicking off in Walsall apparently, You got any more on this Garry?[/QUOTE]
Just saw rioters burst in on the FP webcam, they're stealing the Snabbo source code!!!
This is serious, deploy the army!
If you are watching BBC news, try and watch BBC London. They are doing top notch coverage of it (as they usually do of anything, BBC London are awesome).

Our riots would consist of beachballs and spades being tossed around
I hope these people get some form of compensation, I know around here during the G20 riots last year the federal government said they'd set up a fund and insurance companies said they wouldn't cover damages, and then later the government tried to tell people they wouldn't cover them either.

I'm all for stopping these rioters, but "vermin" is completely inappropriate.

Yes, but insurance companies are notorious for being assholes, and may try to deny the claims.
[QUOTE=smurfy;31610550]Northern Ireland has very, very, very different issues to Britain. They still relatively often have bomb attempts and police shootings, the police there have to have guns[/QUOTE]
It's not as tense than it used to be, and I'm more saying "use more force on this one" as opposed to "use less force in Northern Ireland". (though I do support less force in Northern Ireland, especially from what my mum's told me about the past)

Relax. Besides we're all equals, their main cause is for violance and mine is to relax.

I am not sure though, I get BBC London normally so I get it through my TV tuner.

What the hell you'd expect such shit to happen in poorer countries like mine, not in countries such as Great Britain.
Only fights that happen here are between football fans, or between football fans and cops.
I hate chavs.

we really hate our government and we really love Nike air force 1s, it's a dangerous combo
Croydon pub landlord Alan McCabe tells the BBC he is furious about the fires raging in Croydon.
"I have never seen such a disregard for human life. I hope they rot in hell.
"The grief they have caused people, the fear they have put in people's hearts, decent people who have done nothing to anyone."
Robert Peston always makes me laugh and I don't know why
holy fucking shit... watching Sky news right now. and the guy corresponding in Croydon just said that aload of rioters have just broken into a Pet shop...
Can't wait to read the Daily Mail tomorrow. (I read it occasionally just for a dose of bullshit)
Wow getting nearer and nearer to me, this is not fun.
