Alan McCabe, pub manager in Crodyon: "Area is an absolute war zone"
Violence ha broken out for a third consecutive day in London, with riot police deployed and firefighters tackling blazes across the capital.
Cars were set on fire in Lewisham and a bus and shop were set ablaze in Pekcham. A large furniture shop in Croydon is also well alight.
In Hackney, police sealed off an area after police car windows were smashed.
The prime minister is returning early from holiday to chair a meeting of the government's emergency committee Cobra....

AH HAH
CLUE
Everyone on your street is wearing new tennis shoes!
When society realizes they can just loot and take everything for free then we are near a break point.
That is the best picture of the Korean Grocer’s Militia I have ever seen. They were the only effective fighting force during the LA riots.
I might have guessed. I remember one in Chicago back in the 60s. Not much to steal there either. It doesn't make sense.

Violence has broken out in Liverpool apparently.....yobs spreading violence for the sake of violence....chaos.
You’re right, nothing makes much sense at the moment. The news was saying they’re going into people’s homes now. It’s terrible. I see the names of the cities pop up as these mobs move and they keep getting closer to where my brother and his family live (plus, my grandparents flew down from Newcastle last week to visit them). They live in a safe area, but I can’t help feeling so helpless just watching the news here in New York.
Very impressive picture - the feel of discipline and bravery in it. Are those headbands donned when fighting and don’t they provide someone on the ground with a scope shooting up at the roof a little too much help locating the forehead?
I remember when France burned for days (mostly cards burned by Muslim ‘yutes’ following the death of a muslim boy being chased by police) and France basically hid it from the world - news blackout. Thousands of cars each month. About a year and a half later, a French citizen’s blog said ‘remember the car burnings in disadvantaged areas outside Paris a year or so ago? Yeah, well they never stopped - it’s just France doesn’t talk about it. The car burning count rises and falls but at that time it had continued. Now that was probably 2 years ago - but with London burning, surely the opportunists in France will again set fire to more than the usual numbers of cars right? And won’t this give our mobs motivation as well? International riot day?

Asian yutes? we know what that means.
As I used to say in lectures to my Police Science classmates, the only way you can stop a violent mob it to take out the first three rows - gas grenades, stun grenades or well aimed gunfire.
The agitators are always beyond the 3rd row, but the lesson is learned by the survivors.
Lesson summary: Lock; load, fire, reload, fire, reload and fire again if necessary.
The British mob is made up of three or four components:
1. Black Bloc and/or Red Bloc Anarchists (i.e. Anarchocommunists)
2. Foreign born/immigrant youth (including Moslem contingents)
3. Communists
4. The thug looters - i.e. opportunists (criminals in training, if you will)
The abject failure of the British and American media to identify these groups, often well announced by their flags, signs and uniforms, is one reason these punks are succeeding.
The don’t need an “excuse” to riot and loot. They have an ideological worldview which says that this is normal, that this is what they are supposed to do whenever an opportunity arises. The British police and politicians and media are both incompetent and clueless.
Also, another reason why “gun control” is a complete failure. Look who is losing, and why.
Prayers for the true British. Their liberal traitors have sold them all out to the lefties and muzzie fiends.
One Korean was killed by the mob but they protected most of their stores.
Some of those Koreans were veterans of Vietnam, and you don’t fuck with vets of the Black Horse and White Horse Divisions, and live.
Go ROK!
Has the media pinned this on EDL yet?
It all started because the police shot and killed this punk-a$$...
The riots began as a protest at the police shooting of Mark Duggan, a resident of the Tottenham area of north London, last Thursday. A Facebook group quickly sprung up to commemorate Duggan; police and media attention was drawn to a particular post on the Facebook page which appeared to fan the flames, as well as the occasional tweet from rioters describing their deeds and where they were headed next. Some posted pictures of looting and burning police cars. (snip)

Yeah sure, AFTER all the damage has been done! The people should not have had to suffer this. I cannot believe we people are not safe on our streets anymore. There is nobody to protect us. They only seem to attempt it AFTER the fact.
