Yeah I'm not buying that this is serious.
[QUOTE=ThisGuy0;31585948]Yeah I'm not buying that this is serious.[/QUOTE]
I doubt he is, seriously, killing the rioters is just adding fuel to the fire.
[QUOTE=antimonycat;31585862]Of course it is. If it was a rainbow coalition of thugs, like some warped Benetton ad, then you may have a point but it's mainly black youths, the same as it was in the Paris riots.[/QUOTE]
So you're just knowingly spouting racism?
Reminds me of the Rodney King riots in '92
[QUOTE=ThisGuy0;31585948]Yeah I'm not buying that this is serious.[/QUOTE]
It probably is serious but then I'm also pretty sure he's a moron
[QUOTE=Rocko's;31585902]Oh boy, so now you want the bloody MILITARY to "shoot all these rioting animals"
You're sick in the fucking head, you know that?

Oh no people are rioting, break out the guns and shoot them all.
That's just adding fuel to the fucking fire.[/QUOTE]
Didn't some nice Chinese people try this a few years ago, I am sure it went so well.

Uhm hello that was a peaceful protest.
There are lots of rumours flying about that the rioting is going to Enfield, under 2 miles from where I live.

Dibs on [i]their[/i] Carpetright.
[QUOTE=Zezibesh;31585424]While the intensity of the rioting is fucking stupid, it's good that the people in the UK and France for example still can actually stand up to their government. Don't see this happening in the US, ever.[/QUOTE]
Stand up to the government? What because some idiot shot at firearms officers? Yeah row row fight the power let's all go murder cops!
I love england sometimes. We're like orks.
ONE MAN GETS SHOT
BURN A BUS, TWO POLICE CARS, AND A SHITTON OF SHOPS AND HOUSES DOWN, BREAK WINDOWS STEAL SHIT.

Because instead lawsuits occur.
Johhny Rotten is dissapointed.
Thugs now at work in Enfield clashes with police in one location. Not a riot, but serious disturbance.

[QUOTE=antimonycat;31585446]Londoner here and I am not only furious, but I'm genuinely saddened.
I'm sick and tired of the so called 'black community' blaming the police for everything and anything and using it as an excuse to carry out this feral shit. Your local 'gangsta' shot at the cops so quite rightly, he's going to get shot in return, seriously what is there to criticise? WHAT DID YOU EXPECT THEM TO DO? Being stopped and searched by the police because you're black? The reason for that is that blacks are still a minority in Greater London yet commit a disproportionate amount of violent crime. Are they the only group that commit crime? No, but just as a DVD counterfeiter is most likely to be asian, a paedophile is most likely to be a white male, blacks are statistically most likely to carry out criminal violence. I have yet to see hordes of Chinese or Polish youths stab someone to death because they live in a different postcode or they showed apparent 'disrespect'.
I'm sick and tired of these people. I never had a problem with any group of people before but living in this otherwise great city and being relentlessely exposed for years to their savage behaviour has turned me into a racist and I'm not the only one. When shit like this happens everyone seems to pussyfoot around the elephant in the room and because we aren't allowed to discuss these issues the problem will only get WORSE, exponentially.
I do not want to live in a country with martial law but they should've sent in the military, fully armed, to shoot dead every single one of those disgusting subhuman animals committing these acts of violence. The world would be a better place without them.[/QUOTE]
I don't know what makes you out as more of an idiot, the fact that you blindly blame the black community for crime and associate "Gangsta" with being black or that you think the military should shoot every rioter but either way you're not very smart.
Ban riots!
Lets not forget that the family received no consultation from the police. This visibly upset them to the point of protest. From the footage it looks like there was also your stereotypical "hoodlums" during the late stages of the protest. This probably added to the whole situation of people just wanted to cause trouble.
You cannot condone the violence as it wasn't needed. But more could of been done by the police in order to bleed the snake before it bites.

30 miles away from that Ground Zero here. We somehow managed to get away from that.
Must be the segregation and racial profiling.

Did I say I approve of these protests? I was just stating that it's good that people are still capable for standing up to something, and not being totally passive.

Money switches hands and nothing really changes
I've just heard from a bus worker in London that rioting has started in Brixton too.
Never before have I been glad to say...Thank god I'm in Birmingham.

Surprised he noticed
I still don't get the purpose of this riot, if someone was pointing a gun at me and shooting, I'd shoot back to wtf.

Nothing really can happen when you sue the department which could fix it with the cash you're taking.
Also, we don't riot because we want to at least learn the full story.
[QUOTE=James*;31587912]Surprised he noticed[/QUOTE]
why do you say that?
[QUOTE=Bengley;31588268]why do you say that?[/QUOTE]
brixton has a history of riots
it was also a generic joke about brixton being violent etc
