hmm...so many lies already told about his death that i will honestly not be surprised if it comes back saying he didn't even have a gun

if he did point a gun at police then fair enough he deserved to be shot but why the lies about him shooting at them first and hitting the radio etc.

The police didn't even say they were shot at.

Birmingham's force has been re-enforced with pretty much every single Riot officer on the books of Worcester supposedly, wouldn't be shocked at all to see it kick off there later.

Our head office has just been closed and everyone told to evacuate and work on RAS from home.... Since we work closely with the police it seems to suggest they think something is going to continue / kick off?

8pm curfew and warning.
10pm water cannons (or similar - there are alternatives).
12pm plastic bullets.

******* scum, the lot of them.

Yeh, cos the government has been segregating blacks. They've been segregating themselves for years. People in their communities get the same equal opportunities as the rest of us, and lots get even more through benefits.

Whys is that rubbish?

That statement says nothing about the cause of having a society without no stake in the community but the consequence.

I know you are reading into it because of who said it & the time it was said, however the same principle is applicable here.

Clowns pulling stunts like this and trying to incite violence should have their own hand shoved up their arse to the wrist, before being kicked down a flight of stairs. :mad:

in barking a rioter helps a bloodied youth up onto his feet, then ransacks his bag and runs off.

What's lower that gutter-level???

mayor boris: he is like a dsyfunctional version of the charmin bear that somehow woke up in the mayor's office.

I really hope it doesn't kick off again tonight, but if it does I hope the police actually do something about it (use whatever force they have). This should not be allowed to happen. Not in my country.

What am I doing about it ? Nothing, staying away. If I was a special of course I'd be there, but I'm not.

I have no respect for the yoof that are doing this, nor will I ever have.
Pike summed it up well.

Sorry, I assumed you were coming from the same viewpoint as MLK, which was the artificial segregation of blacks by the rest of society. Like you said, the outcome is the same.
