it started with a reason, then dumbasses just started destroying shit
so yea, the riot atm is without any reason
go riot all u want if its for a cause, but this is just dumbass chavs looting shit
Its quite crazy over here, I was coming home last night and I've never seen so many police cars going by. You can't sleep for noises of sirens.
Today when I got off the tube there were 4 police just stood there waiting for any trouble, the problem is that despite the fact there are 16000 police deployed the area is still too large for them to manage. Hopefully tomorrow they will bring in the army.
Bringing in the army, will definitely effect the current situation over there, but unsure about the way it does effect the situation (positive-/negative way).
Exactly, we've never had to do it before - the hope is that it can be contained. Supposedly tonight is quieter in London, but has flared up in the north of the country.
bringing in the army would sort things out im fairly sure. Police only being able to use their plastic bullets as a last resort? having petrol bombs and rocks thrown at them, i say bring out the bean bag guns! the army. In my opinion the only way people will stop is if they have a personal and maybe even a physical consequence. It's past the point of reasoning now, we need to deal with it ful force.
I guess, if they are getting them in use, the violence goes immediately up, since the demonstrators are quite taking care about such things. I hope, that the conflict can be solved with another way, otherwise it's gonna take too much deaths
That's actually so weird. In Germany they used it on fucking harmless demonstrators against the construction of a train station -_-. In Great Britain people literally burn the capital city and no one seems to be able to do shit about it. :p
the police feel particularly restrained at the moment as they murdered a man a few days ago, don't however think that anyone believes these riots are a reaction to that incident, this is opportunism by people who wouldn't have the guts to go looting under normal circumstances and not legitimate rioting.
That's just a stupid argument. If London can't handle that what would a 3rd world city be able to contain that?
Oh wait, there is a chance they can't handle a riot, let's just scrap all sporting events, musical events and while we are bizzy just scrap any football match taking place because there is a possibility they can't contain a riot. Lmao.
Or it's like saying there are X number of murders each year in a multimillion city like London and you ask if it's safe to hold an event there... On that basis no city should ever host any kind of event, no WC, no olympics, no musical event, no football match , etc...
Ofc that's not a solid argument, as I was just "wondering". I'm not saying that they should stop making any events, I'm just concerned that it could be more devastating and theoretically they should get rides of them. I understand it might happen, it might even happen next day, but its already 5th day in a row, Maybe time to change the law?
british police is just making a fool out themselves.nobody seems to take them serious over there...i wouldnt either to be honest, they seem to be pretty dilettante
yes, but atleast in germany (and many other countries) every policeman also has an anti riot uniform too, which doesnt seem to be the case in london..how would you be scared of a policeman which probably is even more frightened than the actual rioter (which is understandable with almost no protection)
The biggest problem is, during the student protests last year loads of police got prosecuted for being too aggressive. Because of that they are now scared to do anything because they think they'll either get sued, lose their job or get put in jail.
The irony is loads of students got beaten up but these stupid fucking dick heads are getting away unscathed. And atleast students were actually protesting a political agenda.
And yes, it probably would be better if our riot police looked like fucking terminators.
I really feel sorry for the police sometimes. The majority are just regular folk and end up having to sort out all the shit that shitty parented knobhead chavs cause.
i dont think they carry guns or anything, prolly a baton or smthin, however its called
i dont think it would be smart to arm then too, might start an even bigger riot if some1 gets shot
Lol american cops woulda killed a few people already possibly, its a good thing this kinda shit doesn't really happen here, at least not on such a large scale
The riots started because a black man was shot. He had a gun, and the Police shot and killed him. Now they're throwing the racist card and looking for revenge, but hurting innocent people. Any excuse to have a smash up and steal.
i herd smthin about that
it started quietly & they some scumbag went & destroyed stuff
its just rly rly sad
i can understand & support riots of they are actualy for a cause
but this.. this is just ppl being retarded
this is imo the problem, noone takes the police serious in UK it seems...
they should really start to take onto those looters etc quite hard now, i would not give a fuck if they beat them down pretty bad, with watercannons and rubber bullets etc... those idiots are asking for it... so start beating them up ffs.
i mean wtf is this about? some guy who got shot? plz... not even in the beginning... this is just some lowlifes who think it is fun to make some riots.
Vigilantes are always a bit of a dangerous thing but I'm really glad that people out there are trying to stop this shit by helping the police. It gives you a little faith in humanity that every person on this planet isn't a selfish cunt.
Message to all the rioters .......... . u wanna be big men and fight to the death , well get your sorry little arses on the next plane to Afghanistan and stand alongside real men , they're called soldiers and they are fighting a war unlike you bunch of pathetic wastes of space !!!!!
Soldiers fight for money, rioters fight for money. What makes them so different? A floppy haired public schoolboy gives soldiers the O.K so that makes it O.K?
average rioter i guess..
UNCENSORED:
so yea, the riot atm is without any reason
go riot all u want if its for a cause, but this is just dumbass chavs looting shit
so plz tell me, whats the reason they are rioting
Today when I got off the tube there were 4 police just stood there waiting for any trouble, the problem is that despite the fact there are 16000 police deployed the area is still too large for them to manage. Hopefully tomorrow they will bring in the army.
Shameful place to be right now
Just my opinion :D
