Why aren't they using CS gas and rubber bullets? Water cannon and smart water..then round 'em all up.

We don't have water cannons on the UK mainland, only in Northern ireland

I wonder if that wastrel Cameron will declare a State of Emergency on his return from sunnier climates? Although we don't have the Riot Act anymore, at least that way he could declare them to be shot on sight.

I remember having an argument with some members of the French CRS in Paris back in '85...one of 'em whipped out his gun and held it to my head. I wouldn't mind, but I'd only been peeing in the back of a dustcart.

Innocent people might very well die.

As well as all the homes and businesses being destroyed, that might not get rebuilt for years.

That's aside from the real fear that all the decent people, living in the areas targeted by these scumbags, are having to cope with.

no it dont seem a virtual reality game people have been warning about this all year this has been pre-planned by criminals taking bobbies off the street is not the answer and sunbathing while your capital city burns is not good leadership .thats just a point of view thats not political point scoring whoever was in charge its just plain wrong its total anarchy its not funny its like guerilla warfare.
