Yeah, now people have a very convenient excuse to loot, set cars on fire and misbehave... Some drunk chicks on Reuters said that they were sticking it to the rich people (shop owners)...

Hell, none of them probably know the name of the poor guy that was shot by police and since when British police officers carry weapons???

The guy who got shot may or may not have been "poor"



As of the early '90s, while the "bobbies" of London didn't carry weapons around as a normal course of events, nowhere in London was more than 5 minutes away from a "response" team who travelled in cars and were armed to the teeth, to include submachineguns.



Even so, the bobbies were lobbying to get weapons issued, as the street thugs were getting hard to handle already.

There is no AWB in Philadelphia. Philly tried that shit back in the 90s and the PA Supreme Court spanked them hard.  PA has state preemption of firearms regulation.

Philly is an odd case.  They want to be like NYC and basically dictate policy and law to the rest of the state, except for 2 things:

1) Pittsburgh has a case of ass about being the #2 city in the state and reflexively opposes anything Philly legislators propose, and

2) Every year on the first Monday after Thanksgiving 3/4 of a million men armed with rifles travel the PA highways to hunt deer.  One day PennDOT is going to reverse all the directional signs and instead of heading north and west they will head south and east, at which point the fine residents of the City of Brotherly Love are going to choose between swimming the Schuylkill or the Delaware.

With unemployment as high as it is, we are just a spark away from riots across the US.  

Personal experience;  I've had 2 friends tell me on two seperate occasions within the last 30 days that if they don't find work soon, they may have to resort to some illegal activity to save their homes from foreclosure.  These are both highly skilled college educated white upper middle class individuals who have never ever broken any laws.  One friend I asked him what he meant and he said if i see him selling a bunch of new car parts to not ask any questions.  

This got me thinking, if two highly upstanding people that I know are getting to the breaking point, how many other not so upstanding people are out there just waiting to start looting on a massive scale.

not to worry the "not so upstanding people" will still be getting their welfare checks and other "give me" stuff, when that stops there will be serious problems.

I saw that on the news too, she has the balls to go our and fuck shit up, but she ain't got the balls to let them show her face. I don't understand her logic, does she really think burning down the town is going to help anyone?!? Like you said it's given all the heathens an exscuse to go out and loot, and I doubt any of them would know the mans name that was shot. I haven't heard why they shot him, although I feel bad the guy got toasted, but I hope it was a good shoot.

My personal opinion is that if President Downgrade loses next year the blood will start to flow as our own welfare babies lose their great patron and see a Tea Party poised to bring some fiscal sanity to the nation's life. But who knows... I think most of us can feel it coming, but my personal sense is that we've got a little while before we get there.

My sentiments exactly. When Obama looses, I expect major stuff to happen on America's streets.

In New York, there haven't been any major riots since 1992 Crown Heights. The bottom of society had been well fed for all these years, they were getting free housing, "buying" homes they could not afford, getting free medical care, their children go to school for free etc etc. Since Bloomber became a Mayor of NYC he tripled spending on "social programs". And we all know, once something is put in place, to take it away is considered a blasphemy. So all these people are leading good life, getting fat on the govt dime. But they are still not happy. There are rallies by the City Hall almost every day. Thousands of people. Chanting "no budget cuts" and "make the Wall Street pay". I fucking hate them.

So what do you think is going to happen when their god Obama is no longer there? All it takes is one brick through a store front and the city will ignite.

Gentlemen, be ready. But whatever happens is still worth it if the country benefits in the end. We will re-build and recover.

I hope this to be true it will not be the end of my Great country , just the end of all the blood sucking scum.



none of this has anything to do with the guy the police shot , its just the scum finding a reason to steal stuff , the police are held back by our pussy .gov so now in most towns and cities the locals are going to the streets and stopping it themselves vigilante style .



none of this in any way reflects the mood of the nation , in fact this could be a good thing as all the sheep now see them for what they are and want some justice . the press  credit the rioters with more intelligence than they have trust me they just want free stuff and now most folks have seen them for what they are and don't like it .

short answer , no. the .gov would never allow guns for protection



but it may help some of the sheep to  see at last , shooters in the UK make up about 1% so we have next to no voice , but i have spent the last week telling anyone who will listen that they have a Right to own a shotgun and maybe they can grow from that and increase the numbers to a point we have a bigger say in things .

I see that as a good sign.  Typical Continental reaction to riots is
- contain it
- let it die out
- buy off the miscreants with more social welfare benefits

Britain has been trying that, but it isn't working.

I'll second that, though they did have the benefit of DA's willing to actually follow through on the charges.  Lot to be said for actually putting somebody into an uncomfortable cell and making them miserable for awhile.  Too much "rehabilitation" going on these days, and not nearly enough punishment.
