Its kicking off all over!

A well-respect and elder member of the Northern Polar bear community was shot dead by police after eating a student.

Outraged Polar bears from the region have started to loot and burn igloos and skidoos across the area. Humans living in the area are said to be terrified "they are behaving just like animals."

The bears are said to want more food, jobs given randomly and without basis of skill, and their furry bottoms wiped for them. All this in order for them to stop the carnage. Many were seen wearing new trainers and jewellery.

We interviewed a Polar bear who said :"Rrraawwrr!" Before eating our microphone.

Crikey! ๐Ÿ˜ฏ

Show of force! Couple of euro fighters over head.

If a few hundred soldiers tipped up I would help the police. (but that's just my opinion)

Why does the army help the public at other times (ie when it snows/floods/ prison guards go on strike etc)

"They're a tad pre-occupied at the moment I believe. The ones who haven't just got their redundancy notices yet are anyway."

Ah that would be me then! (well I turned down ammo tech so they said "we offered you a re-trade so your not eligible for redundancy!")

Great

Pointless. Once the scrotes have teefed* enough blinging new kicks innit bruv ya get me though, yeah? they'll go home and get back to their ordinary lives again. Many of them won't have jobs to go to as they will have burnt down their own workplace.

*Rastamouse has a LOT to answer for, encouraging the use of Jafaican like that.

You best get your arse down to North End oneoneoneone - there's a stand-off between about 100 youth and the Old Bill 'cause it's been closed off to pedestrians. Mayday hospital has issue a statement saying that they are ready for casualties - I kid you not.

Couple of weeks back I was up in london town and saw the rather sinister sight of one of our Apache's doing a low/slow pass up the Thames, looked properly out of place, not so much tonight I would suspect.

Hopefully police can control it enough tonight that they get bored before other groups of chavs around the country copy it

I have also wondered why no CS or water cannons yet.

Maybe it a health and safety thing (ah I now have asthma because you used CS gas, and I was only going out to get my benefits ETC)

It is about being seen to act though, we have to keep the daily mail readers happy.

Ernie, I know. My dad is a bus driver (out of south Croydon) just sent us a text telling us he had a message over the bus radio " attention all drivers! DO NOT GO INTO CROYDON BECAUSE OF RIOTING"

LOL

Some of those fires look proper nasty. Can't help thinking that there could quite easily be deaths as a result.

Very dark days caused by a minority of idiots. Hope they get caught and dealt with appropriately

It's difficult to tell what's happening from that pic 4x1, just looks like a line of coppers who have closed off the pedestrianisation. But it's definitely NOT Thornton Heath !

Whats all this with community leaders? Is that like the chairman of the parish council in my village.It always seems to be ethnic minorities that have community spokes people speaking up for the latest dead miscreant removed from society by the police

i have always wondered about this youth club thing, i didn't have access when young, you just got on with things. You knew basically what was right and wrong and got on with it.

Always seems to be this looking for excuses, maybe there is an argument for a gloves off curfew approach, if your on the street your guilty, a return to the riot acts.

Kimbers, how many of the muppets looting and rioting today do you think have ever been to one of the aforementioned youth clubs?

Kimbers - it's not an excuse. Our youth club was closed when I was a kid (I'm from Hull so I think it counted as an urban area with significant deprivation and unemployment in the 80s). Nobody rioted as a result of it.

If you've ever lived in london you'll know these youths have no interest in bettering themselves- its free money and bitches.

So kimbers what I'm reading that as, if the youth clubs where open right now there would be no rioting right now?

I highly doubt that. I agree that there are not as many YC open as there used to be and it is a shame, but I don't believe that if the local YC was open the rioting would never have started.

What's appropriate in this case? My thoughts on what's appropriate are worrying me slightly...

You do not get riots without a large disenchanted and disenfranchised population.

The only way to prevent further riots is to bring these people back into society.

And how, in your little socialist utopia, does that happen when "these people" don't want to be a part of society, no matter how much money you spunk on "youth clubs" and "initiatives"?

Is there any attempt, on this thread, at an elightened discussion on what causes a whole section of society to feel so disenfranchised that they consider rioting to be acceptable? Or is it the same old Daily Mail knee jerk shite?

I want to know how much of my life I should waste trawling through it...

TSY - We all agree rioting is a "bad thing". Some people think it's the fault of the white middle class oppressor. Some people think it's all down to johnny foreigner coming over here and stealing our yaks. Usual suspects espouse usual views. I think that mostly covers it.
