Title: Riots in England.
Post by: Yoho on August 09, 2011, 10:02:13 AM
So what has happened is, a so called "gangster" shot at an armed cop but missed so the cop shot him dead. Now people seem to think he shouldn't of done that, so they're rioting everywhere (Started in London). Yesterday they caused £100 million worth of damage and it's spreading everywhere in England, they have already had to close the city centre in my city.

I've heard about the riots already. My friend is going to Europe tomorrow and he's going to places like France, Italy, And London.
I hope he's careful wherever he's going.
And, how much USD is £100 million?

100 000 000 British pounds = 162.19 million U.S. dollars
And the person that was shot dead was named "Mark duggen"
Poor people that are going to have to pay for all this shit out of taxes : (.
My god, look at all the dogs The police have!!!!!!

162.19 million dollars worth of damage is quite a lot. It's sad to see when people are drestroying their own city.
I wish they won't get hurt and they will just stop this fighting.  :-\

It's not really rioting, it's just an excuse to rob stores, the bastards.

This is more of a serious thing then you might seem.  Considering that one of the strongest Nations in the world is now fighting amongst themsevles after somebody got shot, it isn't right.  What's worse, is, that more people  have been hurt from the consequences of the riot.  When people riot, they do not realize that they are putting themselves in danger, and can do more harm to themselves then to others.  $162 Million USD is a substancial amount of dammage to the state, and is not an excuse to just fight, but it can create more political unrest within England.  I personally think that this will escalade into a much larger riot, and will threaten the lifestyle of many people.

Something that i don't like is that one person said "The riots here are far more intense then the riots in Syria and Egypt combined". That's what ticks me off, because firstly, even thou they may stimulate riots, it's not so gangs can have a chance at looting stores, most of those people were demanding a change in their country, meaning it was a REVOLUTION.

When these riots do eventually end, the rioters or people involved will finally realise how much they have done and now lost, they won't have their local coffee shop or supermarket now. I hope they understand how much grief they have caused for themselves and others living in the city.

Jake, for an example of destroying their own community, WW2 or the Taliban blowing up their own city.

Yeah, they haven't blown up their community. We probably all have different understandings of "Destroying Their Own Community."
