[QUOTE=TheHypnotoad;31624599]For posterity. Is it just me or is the difference between the riot police and the regular police shocking? Not in terms of equipment, that's a given but the small shield guys never hold their line and break easily where as the tall shield guys are robust? Regular police will probably have refresher courses once a year after this. Or standard bearers. In fact, sign me up as a police commisar.[/QUOTE] I SAID DON'T QUOTE ME ON THAT :v:

I know why he's sad now, it's because he knows he will drop the soap in jail.
Nah, all the decent laptops were gone when he got there, so all he could get was a macbook.
Next top gear season: Making Riot Control vehicles for less than £5000 PLEASE. On a serious note: [url]http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-14458424[/url] & [url]http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-14456065[/url] Dunno if these have bee linked before but they are both completely fucked up. The girls talk bullshit and the muggers... I don't have words. If these girls are so ready to reject the laws of society and do "what we want" I think we should drop them off in Somalia or something. Why do they deserve to live in what was built here if they just want to ruin it.

There's a lot of racism going around, and I disagree with it completely, but I have to say, from watching videos on youtube of the riots it does appear to be mainly black people. There are whites and other ethnicities too, but it does appear to be a black majority. We are of course angry at them, but we shouldn't be racist about it, there are many black people who have nothing to do with this, and they should be as angry as us. Not just because they are fucking up our cities, but they are making them look like savages and bringing down a fuckload of racism down on them. The black majority taking part in these riots are doing more harm to themselves and other black people than they are to anybody else.
Most of the people, if not 80% are black\asian. This is what the uk gets for allowing multiculturalism.
Sickipedia is going to explode after this with black jokes.
Welp, time to send in Jeremy Kyle [SUP]wait i think someone already said that[/SUP]
[QUOTE=Last.Shinobi;31624777]Most of the people, if not 80% are black\asian. This is what the uk gets for allowing multiculturalism.[/QUOTE] Whoa now.
BBC just said the police are considering plastic bullets.
[QUOTE=Last.Shinobi;31624777]Most of the people, if not 80% are black\asian. This is what the uk gets for allowing multiculturalism.[/QUOTE] no
[QUOTE=Last.Shinobi;31624777]Most of the people, if not 80% are black\asian. This is what the uk gets for allowing multiculturalism.[/QUOTE] While I think the concept of multiculturalism is flawed (as cultures are often conflicting), there is nothing wrong with a multi-racial society.

Plastic bullets being considered apparently.
My mum works as a civilian for Strathclyde Police. She just came home to tell me that she'd been recieving calls all day from people saying they'd heard that these idiots were planning rioting in George Square, Glasgow. Nice..
[QUOTE=Drakehawke;31624790]BBC just said the police are considering plastic bullets.[/QUOTE] The vast majority of people including me will probably support this. The Police can use whatever they want to control this. Except live ammunition or anything like that.
[QUOTE=Last.Shinobi;31624777]Most of the people, if not 80% are black\asian. This is what the uk gets for allowing multiculturalism.[/QUOTE] I got a really bad reaction for mentioning at work that most of the rioters are black or Asian. After I'd shown everyone BBC news they agreed with me, it's not racism to say that, it's a fact.
[QUOTE=Tucks;31624724] [url]http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-14458424[/url] [/QUOTE] Fucking hell, it concerns me deeply that somebody that mentally impared could potentially breed.

[QUOTE=sam.clarke;31624830]Ha, Facepunch can have their boxes back :downs:[/QUOTE] they rated you dumb because you suggested we could see the army using live ammunition. so in that case, you can keep them

It was only a matter of time before it happened.
[QUOTE=Bad)-(and;31624864]they rated you dumb because you suggested we could see the army using live ammunition. so in that case, you can keep them[/QUOTE] No I didn't, I said I could see the rioters using live ammunition, as they had already.
[QUOTE=sam.clarke;31624891]No I didn't, I said I could see the rioters using live ammunition, as they had already.[/QUOTE] "Rubber bullets and water cannons are the only way this is going to be resolved. Seeing as someone has now died from a fatal shooting we could even see live ammunition on the streets." You should really learn to word your sentences better then. That does nothing but suggest the use of live ammunition against the rioters, to me.
[QUOTE=RainbowStalin;31624814]The vast majority of people including me will probably support this. The Police can use whatever they want to control this. Except live ammunition or anything like that.[/QUOTE] Considering all else has failed it's the only thing we can do now.
Swear I heard a Chinook above during the scenes of Cameron meeting fire services. We'd be so lucky.
I just heard that its kicking off in walsall. Gary and you look out the window to confirm this
[QUOTE=sam.clarke;31623455]It's kicked off in a tiny town about 15 miles from me, we're 60 miles out of London in Northampton. There's no reason for them to be rioting there, just boredom because most of the town is unemployed.[/QUOTE] great I live in Northampton
[QUOTE=RainbowStalin;31624814]The Police can use whatever they want to control this.[/QUOTE] Net slingers and those guns that fire silly string that hardens to prevent escape all round!
