Re: London - riots
It was predominantly black youths and by looks of the media coverage there are some Middle Eastern and Desi looking people in there. The areas where the riots were at the start and some of the new areas where the riots have started have sizeable black populations. There may be a correlation. Although you cannot state that it could be predominantly black people rioting because that is racist and politically incorrect.
There seems to be less white people in there. It could be because of media coverage but sadly I think it is just mainly non-white people. The right wingers are saying this is what happens when you let so many blacks/immigrants in your country.
Call in the army and set up a curfew - detain and charge anyone in groups hanging around unnecessarily , ban BBM - who cares about civil liberties in times such as this.
Most of these poor people already have these large TV’s - if you ever went to the houses of quite a few non-working people you would assume they were company directors by the gadgets in the house.
