Rioting in London ¬_¬

Also, our politicians today sicken me, not a single one of them has any backbone - no one's taking control of the situation and laying down the law from the government side (I'm ashamed to have voted Conservative right now), and all Labour can do is spew opportunistic rubbish about 'Tory cuts' being to blame whilst rubbing their hands in glee.

Bring in the damn army if the police can't get control of the situation (which they clearly can't), to hell with it 'looking bad', the first duty of the government should be the protection of the life and property of law abiding citizens and they're clearly failing in that duty.

Yep. London 2011 is now Los Angeles 1992.

Your Labour is spewing the exact same rhetoric that the Democrats did in 1992 concerning why the riots happened.

We had 53 dead and ~2,000 wounded by the end of the riots, and I swear the video reminds me of stuff from Mad Max. The biggest difference, though, is that our Korean storeowners invoked the 2nd amendment and became their own law enforcement which put down a lot of the looting.

 

I hope that peace can be made quickly, and the put down these urban idiots that are causing woeful destruction all in the name of a violent criminal being killed.
