Riots in Tottenham, London! (NO RACIST COMMENTS)

[Benihana]

I think people are buying these for personal protection.

Not the looters. Ordinary people are scared.

This. I very much doubt the looters would be BUYING weapons..

Surely it has to be illegal to sell Telescopic batons to the public in the UK?

According to that, vigilantes armed with baseball bats and protected by plate armour fashioned from swimming floats will cruising the streets on scooters, with headband torches to light the way and a nice hammock for kipping in should they need a nap. I can only assume the Zumba Fitness DVDs are purchased to keep Mrs. Vigilante occupied at home.

No ? are you a fascist ?

If I'd known it was going to get this far north I would've looted myself a baseball bat from JJB for protection.

Am I the only one thinking that perhaps this 'show of force' is too little too late?

Yeh, looters might quit while they're ahead.

Then again, lots of criminals probably missed out.

I know this will unfortunately sound racist, but this is purely an objective observation that I want to mention. Can someone from the it's-not-a-colour issue brigade tell me why for every 1 or 2 or 3 white looters and rioters that I can definitely see in pics or video clips, I can always see far more black looters and rioters visible, ie, it's always about 10:3 ratio. I don't see anything even remotely approaching a 50/50 split. So how does one explain that?

Are people really going to tell me I'm blind and they see equal amounts of both because if so, I must be watching the wrong story.

Your not wrong fella, it is indeed predominately black people doing the deeds.

Unfortunate, but true.

As was said before,water cannons and teargas are highly effective riot control tools as witness many times in Germany,France,Canada and the US

Well with my MMA knowledge and my trusty baseball bat. . . Come on you chav's. I could do with a chav punch bag or two or three even.

I'd like to knock a few of them into next week!

Just don't shoot the double mate, keep it standing and just bang.

Do not use words which meaning you ignore

THIS IS NOT A RIOT AGAINST POLICE.

Jeez water cannons will only make people disperse faster and they end up in other areas unprotected by police.
