Riots in the UK...

You're forgetting mate. police have legal right to stop anyone they have cause to believe has been or intends to be involved in breaking the law. at any time on the street.


Or is hackney a no - go zone now?

We are talking about stop and search; and it always inflames situations. London is a tinderbox right now, especially in the ethnically diverse inner cities. Stop and search is pouring petrol on it.

Just been out, it said on the news that it was all over in Hackney. I can report the contrary. A car is overturned at the end of my street and is on fire. There are 3 factions of people - the public, the rioters and the police.

Most of the people here understand the plight of the many disaffected youths here - though its scant consolation for anyone who gets their property destroyed or their businesses looted (nearly all the shops are shut).

Hardly anyone has any respect for the police round here, for good reason.
 
No, I was merely highlighting an attitude. There is no 'Excuse' for what is happening currently, there are a few reasons, but no excuses. That said, if the press can capture a 'Rodney King moment' then watch the scenario get turned up to eleven.
Clarifying my point, the corrupion surrounding the Stephen Lawrence case highlights the racism and bigotry in the ranks, as does the Cardiff three case, have a check about how a case for the CPS fell through because of officers water boarding the black defendants.
Got to fill that monthly quota, I wonder how many times Sean Mercer was stop and searched. Him and the rest of his white gang of gun and knife carriers.

Well going on Mercer - and whats happened recently any inappropriate Matrix behaviours seen 6 officers immediately sacked.

But you're seeing what happens when the police have their hands tied.

Scumbags on the street burning flats down and trashing the place.

Its an excuse. After excuse after excuse.

Stop and search applies to everyone. I've been stopped and searched. FFS. So what?

Some just won't accept it, because they can't accept the fact they must live within the law.
 

I've just seen Greggs in Hackney going up in flames.

Absolute bastards!!

But why have they got their hands tied as you say?
And what is driving the rioters to riot?
Inequality, deprevation, and old fashioned hatred of dictatorship.

Oh get real. We don't live in a dictatorship. Thats the biggest load of bull**** ever posted on GOT.

There's plenty in criminal gangs who are only kept in check by the police.

You're seeing just what these criminals are capable of right now.

Raoul Moat was stop and searched more than 150 times in 365 days. 'Stop & Search' is being abused by bullies in uniform.
 

Pure violence. Pure gratuitous violence. And those involved in, arson, criminal damage and burglary.

Exact description of whats going on.

Disagree fundamentally and entirely. Are you expecting me to believe that every single rioter in London at the moment is part of a criminal gang?
 
have been mate, but these days i wish i was a copper id dish beating out all over the place, nobody would be safe after dark id hunt them like the virmin they are cs gas , tasers yes it would be great, treat them like footy fans noboby gives a toss if you work them over, but if your urban youth its not there fault so its kid gloves all over, smash them you pig ****houses just go ape**** with the nightsticks it will soon stop.

I text my mate about an hour ago saying that weirdly tonight I wanted to be a bizzy. Its open season on them pricks as far as I'm concerned mate.

They need you as Mayor down there right now fella!
 
All this is, is a gang of Scallies gaining safety in numbers and looting cos the police are struggling to stop them, it's going to spreada round the country and one can only imagine what Liverpool would be like considering the majority of our public school youths would get involved.
