As to people saying are the UK police taken lightly over there ,  I remember the LA riots sparked by the Rodney King trial bringing LA to its knees and a dozen or so Korean store owners laying on the roofs of their stores armed with high calibre automatic pistols shooting at any one coming near their stores.

bet with Mordred11 that Rage will look better on Xbox 360.

Silver-Tiger's post made me laugh. Frightening situation, though.

What is with London Cops? SHOOT THE MOTHER FUCKERS!

Has the western world really became such a pussy?

Yes. The police are terrified of lawsuits. It's sickening.

Because shooting rioters seems to be the most logical non-pussified response...  Seems like you forgot to remember that clubbing and spraying with fire hoses are the ultimate manly ways of dealing with rioters (USA 1960s/70s).  How about using dogs and tear gas?  Nope gotta shoot them...

Fire hoses and tear gas are illegal to use against rioters in the UK.

Then bust out those billy clubs and start beating.  Riot police if used effectively can scatter the rioters with ease.  Line them up in a line with shields and clubs and send them forward.  I thought UK police were good with clubs?

That only works in the old world..

The rioters are using Social Media to report on the Police Location and numbers and are not forming in huge groups.

They are using BBM and Twitter amongst others to strike at the same time.

This is stretching the police so thin that they cannot police everywhere.

Dont think RIOT think ORGANISED THEFT on a massive scale.



@Cypher1980

Absolutely, this is no Toxteth or Brixton this is plain old fashioned thuggery with a modern twist... social networking.

When you have no real epicenter it is very difficult to police. This will keep the courts busy for years trouble is with most of these guys they have no real idea of what they have done, but it will probably catch up with a few and we will have to listen to sob stories not to dissimilar to the Students who could not protest without destroying on desecrating. Having used the word protest this is not protesting it is more like the 70s on a match day in Tottenham.
