Does anyone think that “trigger” really caused all that? 99.9999% of the rioters never even heard of the guy or incident before they went looting I bet. As soon as rioters show that police are impotent, they flared up in other places.
It’s a zombie mentality.
Notice that those defending their homes and businesses against the zombies are put down by the police. The same police that didn’t bother to even show up at many of the riots because they knew they couldn’t do anything. Yet they have the temerity to tell people not to defend themselves.
Which would embolden the zombies of course.
The Brits should announce that anyone taking part in the riots would lose all their public benefits. They have so many CCTV cameras in many cities that this could actually be done.
During the gun control debates, the Dems said that strict gun control in Britain and Australia caused mass murders to drop to nothing, I guess they didn’t take into acount what happens during urban riots.

In this incident, the protest that went down bad was the epicenter of the riots. It was the "excuse" needed for the "redistribution of wealth" to commence.

Oh absolutely, and thank you for noticing the point I was trying to make!

Oddly enough, the Panel Report states they were using CCTV to positively ID the arrested looters in order to prosecute. And a good deal of the looters already had strings of priors. But of course, the Brits have a history of releasing feral animals back into the wild (just as Americans do).
The net result this is that police will be far less aggressive in dealing with black criminals, which is the intended result of the riots.
