If they hunt and loot like animals, treat them like animals - no matter the age, colour or creed.

Human Rights should only apply to those who behave like human beings.

Well said. Should be written into law.

That's the problem, they behave like animals, then when the police get "heavy", they claim abuse of their human rights.

The best description was by an angry shop owner on BBC News last night - -"feral rats"

Re: your comment that the world 'envy's' London.

Mates (Captains both) at a very large US Airline, and another at Cathay, both tell me that London is the sh*t trip that nobody wants. They would rather nightstop almost anywhere else. It is my Capital City, and I am fiercely proud to be British, but I have to agree. London is a complete cesspit - I feel like a foreigner there. I don't think we should burn it down though - too many beautiful buildings, however, the Queen Mary in California is also a thing of beauty, but it is still infested with rats. Same thing really. Don't burn London, but the scum that have infested it, and are moving like a plague throughout the country? Different matter. This country allowed in immigrants and is paying the price. They will transform this nation into something less that it has ever been. Look around - it is happening in front of us, and our Gov't are the one's who welcomed them with open arms.

Your mates are talking rubbish, go on Tripadvisor and the destination discussion forums are listed by most popularly discussed city, London is often #1 and is rarely less than #3. It doesn't struggle for visitors. I'd guess that you and your friends haven't been in a while.

I have just seen/heard on the BBC that residents who gathered to protect their property and possessions (a la Turks) were dispersed by police in case they caused violence

Didn't I say if that happened, the police would act real quick. Besides they probally thought it a surprise to actually have people listen to them for a change and do as they are told.

I think that the 'London' comment was a comment on the venue for an airline nightstop, rather than as somewhere for tourists to visit?

The problem with daring to raise the issue of a limit on immigration is that one is immediately labelled as being a racist, white supremacist rather than as a normal middle-of-the-road Englishman who wishes merely to avoid the country losing its uniqueness and becoming overwhelmed by non-British ways of life.

Woolly-headed liberal champagne-socialist republicans with their Utopian left wing philosophies are an extreme danger to our normal way of life. That anyone should view the greedy, feral rats running riot in our cities as anything other vermin to be put down as would any other species of vermin is frankly bizarre to many normal people.

Unfortunately we can't simply cull them, so when these rats are finally rounded up, they should be sent to the harshest prison regime we can identify.

Counter-terrorist 'agencies' now view parts of what is supposed to be our capital city as a foreign country. That's particularly true of south-east London; it isn't 'racism', it's fact - as I was told only 2 weeks ago.

Is there no other way to prevent the loss of life?
Sure is but that would require that firstly a particular knee jerk law be overturned and secondly the lawmakers would have to side with the victims, and that ain't going to happen.

re post by A2 QFI & RH 200

Simple resolution of this situation.
- Law abiding citizens of the UK do NOT have any rights.
- Scum bag Looters, Rioters etc who are arrested by Police, DO have rights
- Law abiding citizens should therefore, torch Police vehicles, loot shops etc & get arrested by Police, they would then HAVE rights.
Very sad this folks, but it's only the obvious result of far too many years of gutless non action by successive Governments & their mamby pamby approach to such situations like this. Of course also, the Human Rights of looters, rioters etc must be protected at all costs & definitely over & above any rights of any law abiding citizen.

The countries that have provided the UK with these criminals should be forced to take them back. I would reckon that all of these countries receive massive aid from the UK and that it should stop immediately if they refused the repatriation.

Tear up the human rights act now and give the country back to the law abiding citizens. Also, a few politicians swinging from the gibbet at Tyburn would concentrate minds.

As Beagle says - referring to London as a crew nitestop (though that was obvious from the wording of my post - are you a foreigner?). Airline crews hate it - filthy and full of lowlife's, hotel staff that don't speak english, and crap food. Their words, not mine.

BTW I bet I spend more time in London than anyone else who does not actually live there. It is a complete Sh*thole. Filthy, unfriendly, and with an air of foreboding about the place.

We all know the reason why - go to be careful about saying it though, less I be branded a racist.

So, it was just me who saw the 99% of rioters in Manchester, Liverpool, Gloucester and West Brom as being white, indigenous Brits, then...?


Not a race issue, it's a youth education issue.

Watch it, you might incur the wrath of Pr00ne - or should I say Prune !!!

Having just realised he speaks the same on the Rhodesian Thread,
he certainly has the same theme running through his posts.

Sorry, am rightly chastising myself for daring to speak sense.

classic case of me too, copy cat. Its a theme thats being carried out slowly but surely over the western world. Young people who are realising that the authoritys don't actually have much authority. And those things called values, boring, stuff it, its all about fun. You get a small example of it where groups of a hundred or so teenagers try to gate crash partys and then riot, common theme.

I think it is a parenting/parental control issue.

16 year old hoodie comes home at midnight, smelling of smoke and carrying a 42 in flat screen TV. Do parents ask him where he has been? No - they ask if it has built in Freeview!

Now before I get stomped on for reading the DM, i don't get much choice from where I am but I do try to cross reference reports before I post.

Have a read of the following. my comment is this. Because the police did not come down hard the first night, that is why it escalated - because the gangs of rioters were being allowed to get away with it, so more joined in and hey presto, the whole country went off. It is interesting to see that the Manchester Police hit back HARD straight away.

Your views ?

"
Police were ordered to 'stand and observe' rioters as they laid waste to London's streets instead of confronting them, it was claimed today.
Scotland Yard insiders have revealed teams were frustrated at their inability to wade in and arrest troublemakers while they looted and burnt out shops.

They had apparently been told to try and contain any violence but not to haul away offenders who would instead be identified through video footage later, according to The Times.

It was only on Monday night, when the riots escalated still further, that tactics changed and armoured vehicles called Jankels were used to disperse the crowds.

On Tuesday night, some 16,000 officers also flooded London's streets - almost triple the previous night's deployment - and they were finally given the green light to confront the gangs.

A link to 'A Police Inspector's Blog' [or something along those lines] was posted in the thread on jet blast, the thing that grabbed me most that was despite the police themselves saying they knew of the want for them to be harsh they kept saying to each other "remember Tomlinson".

Can't blame them for not wanting to get done.

"David Cameron approves water cannon"

It will be interesting to see if they actually use it.
