Shades of the LA riots, a lot of people wondering where the fuck the authorities are.

Wasn't there like a huge sacking in scotland yard just weeks ago? budget cuts etc?

The only firings I heard about in scotland yard had to do with the phone hacking scandal rather than budget cuts. But then again I wasn't really up to date with the U.K. news until very recently. Wouldn't surprise me if a Tory government was cutting public safety budgets left and right :/

I wish NYC rioted when sean bell was killed, that was more bullshit than some fucking gangbanger

To be honest I was tuned out of the news for a few days, I didn't realise all this happen.

Now suddenly the whole of London and creeping to a few other major cities is flagged for PvP

There's a supermarket opposite me, I might go pick up 2 weeks worth of food lol, just incase ...

David Cameron is (finally) boarding a plane to fly back to england and convene an emergency meeting of his Beat Blax Up Strike Squad.

They have black people in England? Wtf?

There are black people in England?

Spoiler: show

that was a joke

So weird to see this though.

And they speak with an English accent; it's so weird and exciting at the same time!


I was listening to the radio this morning and someone made a comment along the lines of, "When you can get the poor to loot, and burn, and pillage the poor - well, gentlemen, that is Capitalism at its pinnacle." And I couldn't help but chuckle.

Also, don't worry everyone - I am sure that the News Corp. subsidiaries in Great Britain are busy hacking as many victims phones as possible so WE the PEOPLE can get the truth of this event in a timely manner.

I'd laugh at that, but the worst part is its probably completely accurate.

Since the police seems useless, when would Martial Law be declared I wonder...

A-fucking-men... but it's pretty run-of-the-mill for black people rioting. Any excuse to run off with a TV.
