If California ever has another riot I’ll be there to do some shout-outs to the news crew for SRK.
I still think LA is top tier in riots.
yeah I am. but I pay taxes and I dont set houses on fire with families in them or run over people trying to protect their store.
99% of those kids dont even know how to spell politics, they just want to steal shit because they are too dumb & lazy to work and want to destroy other peoples property because they feel worthless (well atleast they got that right). its not like they are looting and destroying government stuff, they loot and destroy stuff from people who often dont have much money themselves but still try to get by with hard work.
I know these kind of people.
“mimimimi there are no jobs, we are all unemployed and have no money, fuck the government”
“ok, here’s a job”
“what??? no way I’m doing that.”
“you stopped going to school and started smoking crack at the age of 12, what do you expect?”
“well…ummmm…fuck the government! riot!”
This thread needs some Pat

david camron is one dumb motherfucker, how about banning people from having kids for the next 15 years instead.
In other news, someone burgled the house of Amy Winhouse last night.
You are not only confused, but also delusional.
You just made up a hypothetical dialogue that supposedly represents 99% of a country, claiming that you fully understand the root and cause of the entire nation’s problem, implying that the most intelligent solution is to give police the power to OPEN FIRE ON CIVILIANS.
Do you ever think critically of these ideas of yours?
I said 99% of the assholes setting buildings on fire, not 99% of the country…
oh those terrible first world problems. I cant buy a 50" tv because I dont have a job, so I’ll just steal one. and I dont have a job because I dont feel like working.
they dont give a shit about the country or problems it may have, they just want to destroy stuff and take things from others because they feel like they deserve that stuff although they’ve probably never contributed anything good to society in their miserable lives. we’d all be better off without people like that. fuck em.
let the police fire a few rounds at them and all the tough guys will run home to mommy. you think they’ll just stop by themselves? right now uk police isnt doing shit and they know it.
if you think those people should be shot, I have no clue what to say about your thought process
People who get involved in riots generally aren’t lazy. Dumb? That’s questionable. And a major problem adding to this is the job market. People have no money, or jobs, and the government and most people step all over them. Then ONE little incident ignites the situation, and suddenly this happens. Look at every revolution, and the events leading up to it. The french revolution was quite similar. People eventually get tired of being labelled dumb, poor, and lazy, when in fact it IS the system that keeps them down.
No, you don’t
The exact opposite of an appropriate reaction to their terrible, oppressive, government is to terrorize innocent people who aren’t part of the government, or to loot stores. The idea that rioters are doing so because they are victims is a ludicrous excuse.
I swear I thought this was Ben Stein before I clicked on the play button.
they’re doing so because they’re mad. most of them anyway. and then there are people that join in during the confusion and take shit. that’s why it’s called a riot and not a scheduled group looting
do you even know anything about the benefits system in England. They NEVER pay housing benefits or income based job seekers allowance on time. Most people receive their housing benefits 3-5 months later than expected. What type of landlord waits that long to get paid??
PEOPLE DONT WANT JOBS
every single healthy person in every first world country can get a job if they really want to.
68 year old man beaten to death because he tried to put out a fire. now tell me those people deserve anything less than a bullet in the head.
simon_, your thought process is what leads to things like a Police State. A nation where the lower class doesn’t agree with the government, the middle class cowers in fear wanting all the scary lower class hooligans to die or get taken away, and the upper class sits in their $10 million mansions watching all the shit go down, because in the end, the upper class has their way. Who suffers? The middle and lower. The lower class gets fucked in their homes and in jail, and the middle class forfeits all their civil rights in order to put away the scary lower class. So now England is Big Brother. The revolution ends with the upper class even more on top than ever before, because the voice of the proletariat people is skewed and squelched from the media, and the middle loses their chance at any positive change in the system they live in.
Obviously the “bad people” need to be stopped. But you need to take an educated approach, and not act based on fear and emotion. We’re more evolved than that now. (well, most of us…)
I agree with you.
but this is not a revolution, its mindless violence and looting. 99% of them dont give a shit about politics or what happened to that one guy, they are just using the situation to destroy other peoples property and steal electronics stuff because they dont want to work for it.
As much as Pats rants give me a fill I think this video does a better job explaining the root problem.

How fucking true. If the rioters cared about jobs they’d be burning down the job centres and social services in a bid to attack the government, but no no, how would they get paid their weekly beer money if they did that? No, lets just rob local businesses and then burn them down - “who cares if they can never recover, we’re robbing T-Mobile too, that’s sticking it the man!”.
Honestly the next person to tell me it’s about unemployment and the government not helping is going to get a fist in their face. We live in the age of entitlement where nobody seems to understand the ethic of working hard, saving and buying things you want, instead, every little hoodie and chav cocksucker thinks they deserve it and will lie, cheat and steal to get it. Those kids don’t need government help and bigger handouts, they needed a heavy dosage of tear gas and police baton to the face.
Don’t get me wrong, I’m pissed off that our own government didn’t actually bother taking action over the riots or even given the police special authorisations, or gasp invoking the military. But frankly the first paragraph of my tirade (yes I’ll admit it) pretty much explains that: Local business and corporate businesses were being robbed and targeted, not government buildings, thus far the government only has to pay out for clean up and police action - until the expenditure to government loss exceeded that of the cost of dipping into the budget to actually get off their asses, they’ll happily sit tight and wait for it to blow over.
I’m also sure that insurance companies all over the country were rubbing their hands together because nobody paid extra for riot to be part of their policies.
True, but you have to realize that the actions of those dumbasses don’t reflect the stance of all the demonstrators, as seen in the video on Page 2 posted by The Furious One. There are people trying to use the riots as a tool for change, rather than personal gain, but the media will always choose to air the most negative images of the riots as an example of why “riots are evil”. It’s fear that controls people, so fear is the product they push.
It’s the same in Canada, where during the G20 riots last year, the 1 police car that was burned became the main focus of countless newspapers and TV reports. 1 fucking police car, and it was the excuse for mistreating over 900 peaceful protesters. The mainstream media doesn’t know how NOT to spin the truth.
Heh, that’s the mainstream medias job, the conceal the truth and reporters, corporations, and others get paid for this for whatever agenda. I watched some documentary, “The Corporation,” where I think Fox tried to edit the documents about Monsanto growth hormones used in milk. this causes cancer and other complications in humans. Reporters refused to lie the public and eventually lost their jobs. I think Monsanto is still in Milk products.
