crime and lies are rife in britain now,is looting any worse than tax evasion by the super rich or M.P.'s claiming non existant expenses?

then theres the fact that we're spending £31'000'000 a week bombing libya,that money could be better spent investing in british industries

as a nation we really are broken,priorities are wrong all over the place...and it can only be sorted out by starting at the top

I agree with what you're saying. Britain is in a bad way.

But there still is no excuse or reason to kill, hurt and torture other people, and steal and ruin buisnesses and homes from those who have no say in the way Britain is run.

It is a shame that people can act in such a inhumane, violent and scavenger way...

By the tone of your two posts in this thread it sounds like you are condoning the activity of some criminal punks. A few well placed bullets in the middle of some foreheads and it would have come to a stop very quickly. They have no right to destroy property and jeopardize human lives just because they think they are so fucking hard done by.

I had heard a story some time ago, can't verify it, but it sounds as if it could be true.

Some time ago in a U.S city where some rioting and looting took place, one gun shop had it's owner on his roof with some employee's holding some rifles. Amazingly enough, apparently no one touched his shop.

Yes, A few shootings would have probably help stop alot of it.They should have brought the Army in. They soon would have dealt with these bastards.

no im not condoning it,far from it.....the problem i have is with the government,quite rightly they're methodically rounding up and punishing the culprits,but heres my real issue...theres a section of british society that are living in slum conditions unable to get jobs,theres no way out for many.the government cant see this...many people over here just want the opportunity to support their families,they're not being given the chance to do so..they have a life of poverty,yes poverty in good ole england...on the other side of the coin you have footballers earning 200k a week for kicking a ball,bank managers getting millions in bonus's for messing the economy up...if you get a group of hooray henry students smashing a restaurant up its not vandalism,its high jinks,but thats ok because they will inherit money

its all about punishment now and not solving society's ills

Very true blue.

I totally agree on the fact about money and how bad it is for getting jobs. And I defo agree on the fact of footballers getting paid stupid money for kicking a ball around. After Englands last attempts at football, these kind of payments are a pisstake.

I know I don't. But I have family that lives in both London and In Bristol, where it has also been affected.

It makes me angry. I feel for the people living there at the moment. It doesn't mean I shouldn't have a say or feelings of what is going on. And that isn't a rant at you either.

Which is it Sky, are they living in poverty, or are they getting a free ride?

Yup. There are alot that claim when they shouldn't. This people really annoy me. There are those of us working hard and going by the book to keep above water. Abnd then those that spends their benefits on drink and drugs and not on the kids, because they are given way too much then what they actually need to live on.

I'm sure it's happened south of the 49th many times. Top me that is the only benefit of your slack gun laws... which I suppose is a good thing... just this one time.

It's all excuses and laziness isn't it.....

The same can be said about a lot of people that live in North America. The bottom line is if someone wants to crawl out of the hole they can. It's a matter of them wanting to and not waiting for someone to do it for them. Those fuckers will never get an education or further ahead by leaving their ass in the rack until the crack of noon. I have zero sympathy for someone that refuses to help themselves.
