Riots in Tottenham, London! (NO RACIST COMMENTS)

[IceBus]

Anyone who's not watching the Sky News live coverage is missing some of the best comedy live reporting I've ever seen.

England has gone mad!

Gone?

 

[Robbo]

Why must we chose one of those to blame?

Why can't we just blame the individuals for being ****'s?

Plenty of people in this country go through some properly harsh stuff and don't feel the need to steal from JD Sports and set fire to other peoples cars as a result.

Sorry Joshy but whatever legitimate concerns this people may have had are now rendered irrelevent by the disgusting criminal behaviour.

I'll just quote this instead of writing it myself.

You can't defend these people OR 'offer narrative' because they are brainless idiots, there is no reasoning behind this.

 

[majestyk]

It won't come as a surprise that I agree with this entirely.

Sad, but my points from the previous nights still stand.

Its either you want to blame the colour of the skin or the social problems these people have to face . Its your call

I wonder if you'd stand by your points if it was your house or business burning down.

Does anyone know if High Barnet is being affected by this? I'm staying there next week...

 

[support_bae]

Why are all looters black?

Glad to hear Cameron is FINALLY coming back. Bring Cobra together and draft in the army - this is long overdue. When will it stop? The jails must be overflowing.

Deploying the army, along with the police and some rubber bullets/tear gas is the only way this is going to stop.

 

[Stev]

Get the army in, they arnt afraid to use force.

Sutton, Surrey has apparently been closed off. It's spreading everywhere! I live down the road from it, 2-3 helis flying around.

getting too close to comfort for me now . I only live down the road in banstead.

The helmet and bullproof vest are standard issue when walking through Peckham

lol

Pretty good coverage.

Re: the Turks, this is whats gonna happen, I thought London (I am probably wrong here but you get my gist) had a hefty Russian mafia presence, what if one of these guys chooses the wrong place to burn down???

 

[robmol]

Didnt someone mention friends living over Jessops? Just seen this on the live blog FYI, hope everyones ok there!

2145: Jessops in Colliers Wood has been burnt down, say locals there.

 

[oldbag]

If this were France I would imagine the whole situation would have been different

 

[fadetoblack]

a few roof top sangars will calm them down

 

[Neil79]

Why are all looters black?

Because..........

 

[badcompany]

Newscaster on CNN just talked about British Prime Minister "Gordon Brown"


lol

 

[Jimbeam3678]

That report on his cell phone was crazy brave brave man

 

[CaptainRAVE]

Cobra will meet tomorrow, the army will be brought in.

 

[bingham67]

Apparently kicked off in Harlow?

 

[Dolph]

Utter scum, I cannot understand how anyone can try to excuse, justify or blame this on anyone other than the scum in the streets.

Bring on Joseph Dredd...

 

[BlackDragon]

Girlfriend is telling me about trouble in Birmingham.

Absolutely disgusting, with no reason for people to be behaving like this. Some serious justice and discipline needs to be brought in to deal with these scumbags.
