Butchers! What a sad fact that the ignore feature didnt survive the transition, I'll remedy it immediately.
Try not to drink yourself to death, good man.

2 points;
1. Even though I don't accept for a moment that "looting" cannot have any element of politics, there's politics clearly there "Police have taken the piss for too long"
2. Anything by way of evidence the author someone actually involved - and not some spotty 15 year old sitting in his bedroom?

No pasaran!
Just hearing of "disturbances" in Brum city centre on Twitter

Embrace the confusion!
Why are the tories slagging off looting? Surely these enterprising young people are taking advantage of an opportunity to advance their material wealth - the classic conservative way.
Anyways: Jean Charles had a bomb. Smiley had a knife. Ian died of natural causes. Now we have "Mark fired first".

Well, that's the problem, isn't it? "Appearances" are just that until they're substantiated.

IIRC, not the police, but the state.

Someone from Legal Defence Monitoring Group tells me it goes back to the first incarnation of the law in the late 19th century. Thus no one ever gets done for more than Violent Disorder.
This itself is an arse. Violent Disorder doesn't have to be against the person. Affray (lower) does.
Been seeing that, heard their shopping at the Bullring.

You're sharp, aren't you?
Ah ok - I was just wondering if a 'riot' comes out of their budget... Suddenly smashing windows etc.. then has another effect for young people who's aim was to take on the police.

So many particulars. So many questions.

'The supposed 6pm disturbance in Birmingham that was being rumoured on social networking sits has failed to materialised so far, West Midlands police said.
A spokesman said that they had received calls about a large crowd building in the city centre, accompanied by a sizeable police presence, but this was for a public balcony appearance by the India cricket team.
He said there had been no confirmed incidents of violence so far linked to events in London.'

This type of thing going on will only ever lead to that kind of talk (and action, if it continues) from modern politicians. God forbid someone should die in these outbreaks and they will be talking about worse things.

Goddamnit, if I hear the word "community" in a sentence one more time I will kick-off a riot of my own. News reports are starting to sound like this...
"blah blah community community blah blah the community blah blah community community community blah the community blah the community blah the community the community the community. THE COMMUNITY!!1!"
I wonder if "community" is the new word for "ghetto" or something.
