London witnessed a weekend of rioting after the shooting of Mark Duggen by police on August 4. A peaceful protest on Saturday turned violent by Sunday.
London braced on Sunday for more violence after some of the worst riots seen in the British capital for years which politicians and police blamed on criminal thugs but residents attributed to local tensions and anger over hardship.

Somehow, I don't think this was caused by Tea Partiers. Just a hunch....

thanks
Looked like the Blitz.
Anger over hardship? How can their be hardship in the land of Eng? That tiny island nation is ruled almost entirely by Liberals and Socialists. You’d think they’d be eating, drinking and being merry.
Amen. This is obviously the work of Sarah Palin.

Anarcho-syndicalism
A common Anarcho-Syndicalist flag.
In the early 20th century, anarcho-syndicalism arose as a distinct school of thought within anarchism.[78] With greater focus on the labour movement than previous forms of anarchism, syndicalism posits radical trade unions as a potential force for revolutionary social change, replacing capitalism and the state with a new society, democratically self-managed by the workers.
Anarcho-syndicalists seek to abolish the wage system and private ownership of the means of production, which they believe lead to class divisions. Important principles include workers' solidarity, direct action (such as general strikes and workplace recuperations), and workers' self-management. This is compatible with other branches of anarchism, and anarcho-syndicalists often subscribe to anarchist communist or collectivist anarchist economic systems.[79] Its advocates propose labour organization as a means to create the foundations of a non-hierarchical anarchist society within the current system and bring about social revolution.

In this photo from a December 11, 2008 Marxist.com article, the protesters can be seen giving the communist fist salute.
Marxist.com is obviously a pro-communist website.
And here they are with large red (communist) flags...
"After four days of struggle we can now start to draw some first clear conclusions. Without any doubt this movement deserves the title of 'teenager uprising'. We have here a new generation of tens of thousands of school students erupting in a huge explosion, the biggest for 20 years, if not even more, in Greece. We have clear symptoms of an instinctive revolutionary spirit, and a clear tendency to target not only the present bourgeois government but also the bourgeois state and the capitalist system as a whole."

The “masked ones”, as they are known, hold informal assemblies each day, where everyone has a chance to discuss where this “revolution” is headed. They even debate whether it is a revolution. “It is a social riot,” said another gate guard, “and it’s still going on. We don’t know yet where it will lead.”

"The raised fist (also known as the clenched fist) is a salute and logo most often used by left-wing activists, such as: Marxists, anarchists, socialists, communists, pacifists, trade unionists, and black nationalists. The raised fist is usually regarded as an expression of solidarity, strength or defiance."

At first I thought this was a photo form the ‘40 blitz. THe Luftwaffe would be proud.
Good idea to leave it as is. Only problem is the scum won’t stay there. They will just migrate to destroy another working neighborhood or town.
Hey, that guy in the phone shop has a WHITE iPhone 4 which never hit the market.
And liberals look at these pictures and say, “we need to find the people who did this...they obviously need our help.”
Can’t pass up a chance to look cool on facebook. I was a hellraiser when I was a teen but the hellraisers with a large dose of narcissism types that are all over the place now are really quite annoying.
Maybe he “knows a guy”.
This was a race riot. The violence was done by black people because a cop shot a black criminal who shot at him first.

Of the 9 injured, 8 were cops, some of whom were hospitalized.
AND it is happening here already. It WILL spread. And the violence from the groups you mentioned is being organized on facebook as we speak. They are planning to hit all over the country. They are calling it a Day of Rage. Now where have we heard that before?
