Rioting Widens in London on 3rd Night of Unrest

Rioting solves NOTHING. These people are fucking idiots.

 

O M G

we agree on something

 

With the stock market losing a trillion dollars a day in value, the mindset will soon be the rich or the poor. With just 2% of the country that controls 98% of the wealth, all of those poor people will be conservative or liberal, one poor class.

I doubt if you are a part of that 2% so welcome comrade.

 

yesterday croydon looked like a bombs hit it, couldnt believe what i saw, at work yesterday it was jammed packed, we expect this kinda flow of customers at christmas time, people stocking up on anything and everything ques all over the place, people dont want to take no chances, residents have taken the law into their own hands, loads of people are guarding their streets and where they live now

 

Needless to say the American Government has been preparing for upcoming civil unrest since 2005 ( brigades of Iraq and Afgan battled hardened soldiers and marines train local law enforcements agency's on crowd control and suppression).

The uprisings that are going on in other countries will not be tolerated in the US, if by chance a uprising was to occur within the US, martial law would be declared in a moments notice and the US populace would go right back to it's mindless state of nothingness!:smt003

 

Absolutely,

This is wanton criminal behavior by a bunch of young punks running around.

Bloody yobs and hooligans who see an opportunity to engage in random violence and think there wil be no repercussions for doing that.

Its always ironic to watch them, they will have some ski mask or hood on their heads and throwing rocks at windows or the police and run. Downright fools.

What amazed me is the London police seemed incapable of getting on top of this right away and sat around ruminating about it as it developed.

 

In Los Angeles during the Rodney King verdict, there was something similar that happened here in the U.S. There were young people pulling people from their cars and trucks and beating them on the street. Looting, smashing windows, setting buildings on fire, etc.

Many of those buildings you see destroyed now will never be replaced. Those looters are going to be in for a surprise when everything quiets down and a lot of those people find themselves being prosecuted. The police is going to use the tapes from the news media who are filming everything to bring many of them to court.

You be careful, you be very careful. You have a young looking face. Many police or those vigilanties could mistake you as being one of the looters. You could be just coming home from work and be at the wrong place at the wrong time, totally innocent of any wrong doing.

 

London riots: Young thugs got a lift home with mum when they finished looting
by Ryan Parry, Daily Mirror 10/08/2011

THE boy was barely nine years old, four feet tall and weighing maybe 60 pounds, yet he held himself like a big man.

A black hoodie pulled over his head and a red bandana masking his baby face, the boy squared up to me and boomed: “Oi Mr, you betta watch yaself man. Why you be watching us?”

The young thug had fire in his eyes.


With 100 of his mates ranged behind him in the smoke-filled street, I knew his threat wasn’t hollow.

I’ve covered riots for the Mirror in the past – Belfast, G20, the student fees protests, even the looting after Hurricane Katrina in New Orleans – but none matched the intensity of violence and destruction in London and spreading like a cancer across the UK.

Last night Scotland Yard issued a series of CCTV images and photos of many of those involved in the rioting.

From extremely young boys to teenage girls, these youths – children in fact – are all suspects officers want to question. I witnessed their work first hand. I saw the devastation in Tottenham and was there during an attack on Enfield high street followed by the looting of a nearby retail park.

Then on Monday night, as Hackney descended into chaos, I watched youths use the shooting of Mark Duggan as an excuse to lash out and take what they believe is rightfully theirs.

Teens on stolen bikes eyeballed me as they rode by looking for shops to break into and loot.

Jewellers, off licences and electronics stores were popular, but sports shops were their preferred target.

I arrived on Mare Street just moments after a gang had smashed their way into JD Sports. Kids filled their arms with Nike trainers and adidas tracksuits. Boys, grown men, their girlfriends and sisters, even mums and dads – smashing and grabbing in a frenzy of crime.

Two boys looting TVs in Croydon called their mum to pick them up.

A few minutes later witnesses saw an Asian woman arrive in a people carrier with a *disabled badge in the window.

The boys loaded up the boot with their stolen booty and then the woman calmly drove away.

Yesterday Britain’s most senior police officer, acting Scotland Yard Commissioner Tim Goodwin, called on parents to keep their children at home and help bring the situation under control. He said: “I urge parents to start asking where their children are. There are far too many spectators getting in the way of the police operation to tackle criminal thuggery and burglary.

“I’m imploring people to start clearing the streets to enable officers to deal with the criminality that’s occurring.”

Sadly, I fear the plea will fall on deaf ears. When mums come to collect looted tellies, there’s little that can be done.

DEFIANT

The mob defiantly faced down riot police on Monday night. Even when the protesters started burning and looting, the outnumbered police could do little.

I asked one young man, only his eyes showing above his cloth mask, why he was rioting.

“He simply replied, ‘F*** you, man,’ before giving me the middle finger.

The atmosphere grew increasingly tense before the real trouble came as darkness fell over East London. That’s when the “fun” began for rioters who had been summoned by BlackBerry messenger to leave their PlayStations for a night and flood into Hackney from across the city.

By 8pm four cars and several bins were on fire along Clarence Road.

Thick smoke drifted across the Pembury Estate as up to 300 rioters fought running battles with police.

Glass and chunks of concrete littered the road and the mob laughed as they hurled bricks and bottles at the police lines.

Two hooded teens pushed past me and started rolling a huge wheelie bin towards the riot cops.

Then a group broke off, smashed into a newsagent and casually stole booze and ran out with a till full of cash.

Ten yards from where I stood, two yobs took turns smashing open a till and taking the cash.

The media has always observed riots in the thick of the action, while trying to stay at a safe distance.

But in London over the past few days, the rules have changed.

Several journalists and photographers have been attacked.

In Hackney, Mirror photographer Phil Harris witnessed a colleague being bottled over the head. Phil said: “There was a mob at the end of the road near a burning car.

“I was walking up to it when I saw a photographer being chased down the alley towards me.

“A group appeared from nowhere and smashed a bottle over the guy’s head. They were kicking and punching him, he was bleeding badly.

“Luckily two other guys dragged him out and I hotfooted it as well.”

HATE

Similar scenes were reported in Birmingham and I’ve heard stories from across the country – hate-filled yobs have invaded our streets and they don’t want photographers capturing their faces and handing the pictures over to the “Feds”.

Unfortunately, at 6ft 5in and with a shaved head, I have the look of a plain clothes police officer. And at one horrifying moment the mob turned on me after a young rioter bellowed: “That c*** is CID.”

After a tense few seconds, and a lucky escape, it was time to leave.

Last night shops and businesses cautiously boarded up their windows in fear that violence could erupt.

Like most people who live and work in these blighted streets, they have little faith in the parents of the baby-faced thugs to prevent their kids running riot again.

see here with video

 

lol and the bnp are saying these are "race riots" god they never cease to amaze me, are they that desperate to make this out to be a race problem? because im sure me and millions of other people in the country saw asian, black and white kids rioting all together happily

the leader even said he predicted race riots three years ago, he didnt prove shit, because these are not race riots, where do you see asian, black and white people fighting against each other because of race? oh well thats the WN mindset for you, twisted and desperate

 

IMO, it's part of the global unrest.

Cant the coppers just get a fucking grip on the situation? This is what happens when you have a policy where most police men just have batons and large dogs but no guns.

 

they just exposed some of the people who got caught rioting, one was a school assistant, and one was from the army, lets see who else comes out the wood work, and one mother is tryin to justify why kids are stealing

 

Because of this crap a friendly international football match between my country and Nigeria was cancelled, now if this was in Africa, the British Press would gleefully add their own dimension to it, thankfully my family is OK that all that matters to me

 

i am a gun advocate...but the rioters are mostly youth right....water cannons, tear gas, rubber bullets, bean bags, tasers......would be affective as well...lessen the chance of fatalities....

 

Wow. I hope people return to order. The videos have been crazy. I watched one where a woman jumped out of a burning building a couple stories up to save herself.

 

LOL, race riots my ass. Maybe he needs a Blu-Ray HD disc, pause it and he will surely see a whole bunch of white dudes running around in the streets as well hooting and hollering and make asses of themselves, just like the blacks and Asians there.

Even local community leaders have said what these folks are doing is just criminality, nothing to do with any damn race riots.


You look at all this racial violence.







As you Brits would say Wacy, some of these race obsessed fools ought to stop taking the piss already when they speak and realize this sh!t has nothing to do with race, even though it may have seemed to start that way at first.

 

i think that might have been the pound store in croydon, because a woman jumped out of the top floor and thats the only pic i seen like it, but this week has been complete hell, going into croydon town tomorrow early, they have only blocked off the bad bits and its calm there now

 

lol if i was to show this to the bnp scum they would label it liberal propaganda, to them whites are innocent 24/7, on the tv i saw plenty whites mashing shit up, even one white mother justifying why its ok for kids to steal from this mans shop, but its okay because their white in the bnps eyes

 

Do you think if this was America the cops wont have one eye on their guns ?See, some ignorant youths immediately become intelligent the moment they see a cop's gun .

BBC radio decided to do a show and the topic was what is wrong with young black men i took offense to that because in Birmingham for example most of the rowdy guys are from south Asia i.e. India and Pakistan.

 

LOL, this was an opportunity for every anarchist, nihilist, gang member, criminal minded individuals, anti-war, environmental activist, socially disgruntled Joe Schmo to run wild in the streets and smash up stuff, the last person they are thinking about was the person that died at the hands of the police in the beginning.

You can't tell me quite a few chavs didn't make the trip down from the North as well.
