Possible reason to riot? It might be nothing like the shooting the other week.

I think it was last week Mike wrote about the guy that got shot. That was the last shooting since the London Riots. Oddly enough, now that there was no social backlash from that shooting, it seems to be free reign of shooter cops. That's 2 guys in 2 weeks isn't it?

I'm surprised that it has taken you so long to get worried.

Total up the number killed by terrorists in the UK.
Total up the number killed by plod in the UK.

Surprise.

Aparently to cause riots certain crteria have to be in place for the chavs to riot...
1) an excuse i.e. the shooting.
2) warm weather as the chavs dont like being cold.
3) just been paid so theres plenty of beer.

1. Check. There has been a shooting.
2. Check. The weather is pretty toasty today.
3. Check. It's the start of the month.

WOOOO!!!! I got 100% score.

Oh wait.......that isn't a good thing on this test.

A question that I cannot get answered,maybe someone else can.

What percentage of the population have been convicted /charged with a crime and what percentage of policemen have been convicted/charged with a crime or resigned before this happens.

I suspect the latter is the higher percentage.
What does this tell us about our country,is it policed by people who are more dishonest than the people they are supposed to orotect?

I liked the analogy made on a recent radio program discussion They asked " what is the difference between the Police and the Criminal?"

Panelist A said " A uniform"
Panelist B said " The Policeman has not yet been caught"
Panelest C said " One gets a civil service pension"
Panelist D said " Policemen can murder someone and get off Scot free"

Public opinion light hearted or otherwise does not bode well for her majesties uniformed protectors of the rich and powerful
