England Rioting

[nickness89]

was full of EDL (English Defence League) supporters congregating with the intention of 'protecting' the place from looters. Now the EDL are only one step up from the BNP (British National Party, a very racist, right-wing extremist political organisation) in my book and whilst I appreciate (for want of a better term!) what they are trying to do, I don't think this will improve the situation, as they have a very negative reputation.

There will, as a result, probably be a massive backlash involving non-whites; most of whom aren't even involved in the trouble. I can feel it. I hope I'm wrong.

Oh hell yes, the "minorities" will cause a huge scream about this i'm sure. I am all for welcoming all ethnics from every country, however, Immigration needs to be tightened up a bit, as too many people are being allowed into the country even though the country is in massive debt, with huge cuts, and not enough jobs (1 for every 50 people). The foreign citizens and immigrants in the country right now though, are doing an awesome job. I love the story about the 1000 Muslims protecting their Temples and streets, fighting off the youth and encouraging unity in the law-abiding citizens. Inspirational.

(Do recall them saying that all the rioters are like in the under 19 age bracket or at least a high percentage is.)

Yeah, the majority are youngsters, making the rest of us youthful people look like total twats. There have been 8 year olds seen walking down the streets with TVs that they have looted, stating that they are happy that they are breaking the law!!


Today's generation need a good boot up the arse!!

There is absolutly no justification for the actions that have taken place. Its an absolute outrage that things have gotten this out of hand. I wish I had a license to kill and a revolver with 42% ammo regen. Set me loose on the streets of london and I'll give everyone their just deserts.

Alpha, I'm sure not every poor person is out there looting and bombing buildings with petrol bombs. I would agree its motivation for theft, but poverty is a poor excuse (hehe) for commiting crime. Couldn't these people simply be immoral assholes who deserve to be locked away? Afterall, it seems to be that the riots began bceause of a certain gangster being shot and killed, now everyones using this as a reason to mug and pillage.
