"
So let me get this clear now...................
Everybody on here agrees people should respect the law and be nice to other people.
But the politicians fiddle expenses. ( which is illegal. )
And journalists hack phones. ( which is illegal.)
And police appear to be reluctant to tell the whole truth and nothing but the truth.
( which winds people up. )
and take bribes from journalists ( which is illegal )
And now loads of ordinary people are looting from shops. ( which is illegal.)
And other loads of ordinary people are forming vigilante gangs. ( which is illegal, isn't it?)
And kids on Facebook are inciting riots by typing stuff ( which is apparently illegal )
And tabloid readers posting comments to shoot the looters ( which apparently isn't illegal at all , but is almost exactly the same as the kid on Facebook )
And I'm trying to follow it all on Twitter ( which is bound to be illegal soon )
So now we've got politicians AND journalists AND police AND criminals AND kids AND adults running about all over the place every night trying to show who is the toughest of the bunch.
And some people think it might be a really great idea to add to all the confusion by adding rubber bullets, water cannons and God knows what else, because shooting bullets at people always calms them down.
What's left for tonight? Are the Buddhists sending off for their Amazon baseball bats yet?
And if those fecking politicians spend all day tomorrow asking each other to agree that their side is condemning riots more than the other side, I vote we put a media ban on politicians appearing on TV until this all settles down, because they're only going to make it worse by talking more bollocks instead of sorting things out like they are paid to do.
Can somebody please just ask Bob Geldof to organise a concert or something and get everybody to chill out for a couple of days.
( Not to sing obviously, just organise one with other singers. Surely we can all agree on that?)

Don't agree with you on much but I do on this one!
can't ****ing stand the bloke!
On another note, I was very pleased to see on TV last night that a couple of little hoodrats (in differrent cities) had obviously pushed the police too far and actually each received what looked like an almighty whack from coppers with batons.
the one in manchester was giving it loads with his two mates on their bikes. got a smack, then they all decided they thought better of it and fecked off home. we need more of that please!

I used to be of the opinion that violence breeds violence and the an eye for an eye was the wrong approach...
I now see that you need to find some common ground when you want to get your message across to people, these hoodrats only appear to understand one thing: voilence, so the correct thing to do is to respond in the language that they are most fluent in.
If the police had employed this approach in the 1st place it would have been over in a flash and we could all get back to focusing on the Hacking enquiry.

Nice to see Cameron blaming the police now and Teresa May saying she had a hand in the strategy that sorted out the riots LOL!
Usual deluded ramblings of spineless politicians

He has not yet explained then why at first the coppers were standing around watching the rioters burn everything and steal all the stuff from the shops! Was that the coppers' idea of containing the riot?

More likely to be along the lines of the explanation I gave you the other day re: the lose lose situation.
