and I am saying you have no idea who the tea party is random thoughts Send a noteboard - 10/08/2011 03:06:15 AM
Being so angry at your government for failing to govern that you try and have your voice heard through legitimate political means and elect some people to push that message is not the same as being poor disenfranchised youths with no connection to the community and so angry you mindless smash and loot your own neighborhood. In fact I would call it the opposite. Really Joel I was being serious if you going to walk around with a full time stiffy over the tea party take a little time to get some some information from other places than that walking fringe element Olbermann and crappy far left rags like the Rolling Stones.

It's pretty scary. Rebekah - 08/08/2011 02:19:51 PM 1299 Views
I found it somewhat last night, having a sister who lives in Brixton snoopcester - 08/08/2011 02:50:57 PM 1339 Views
I'm sure the media will manage to blame the police somehow Wibble - 08/08/2011 03:11:40 PM 1282 Views
I've been following the story. Spriteling - 08/08/2011 03:26:51 PM 1287 Views
I cannot quite make out what is going on Camilla - 08/08/2011 03:27:57 PM 1436 Views
No, that's about it as far as we know Wibble - 08/08/2011 03:40:15 PM 1485 Views

Continue to use live ammunition until no one is protesting. *NM* Tom - 08/08/2011 03:53:50 PM 716 Views
Sounds good to me *NM* Wibble - 08/08/2011 04:06:04 PM 720 Views
Okay, bored of these riots now, time for the police to follow 10CCs example... Wibble - 08/08/2011 09:28:36 PM 1380 Views
Given what has been reported snoopcester - 08/08/2011 04:07:13 PM 1410 Views
So, did the original suspect have a gun/fire bullets? beetnemesis - 09/08/2011 04:19:16 PM 1387 Views
Had a gun, didn't fire snoopcester - 09/08/2011 06:51:54 PM 1332 Views
Not actually true Wibble - 09/08/2011 07:01:33 PM 1270 Views
Seems it isn't exactly but I'm not sure your reply is 100% true either snoopcester - 09/08/2011 07:27:00 PM 1391 Views
Now that's a good point Wibble - 09/08/2011 07:45:26 PM 1346 Views
I think with both they're putting disclaimers in snoopcester - 09/08/2011 08:56:17 PM 1358 Views
There's no evidence he didn't fire? Imagine that. Joel - 09/08/2011 11:22:05 PM 1291 Views
He's saying the evidence available is inconclusive either way. Rebekah - 09/08/2011 11:37:06 PM 1367 Views
Fair enough. Joel - 09/08/2011 11:56:16 PM 1406 Views
There are various proofs snoopcester - 10/08/2011 12:06:41 AM 1285 Views
True, but if tests are inconclusive rather than merely incomplete those proofs may not be available. Joel - 10/08/2011 12:47:34 AM 1331 Views
Bullshit Wibble - 10/08/2011 01:12:46 AM 1197 Views
If that's the case it's hard to say they overreacted. Joel - 10/08/2011 01:22:45 AM 1201 Views
I do see why it matters if he fired or not random thoughts - 10/08/2011 12:46:12 AM 1249 Views
Again, I don't know the British standard, so I can only guess how it works. Joel - 10/08/2011 12:54:20 AM 1342 Views
Though if he had a gun, in a sock, not drawn... beetnemesis - 10/08/2011 01:50:05 AM 1302 Views
sadly the rioters didn't wait for facts random thoughts - 10/08/2011 02:56:46 AM 1453 Views
They've announced that the "unknown" gun was never fired beetnemesis - 10/08/2011 02:04:26 PM 1305 Views
So? Are the police supposed to let him get the first shot? *NM* random thoughts - 10/08/2011 03:15:59 PM 730 Views
...said Gaddafi. *NM* Tim - 10/08/2011 12:11:31 AM 686 Views
And?... *NM* Wibble - 10/08/2011 12:17:51 AM 664 Views
And we just went to war with him because he was shooting people in the street. Tim - 10/08/2011 09:56:07 AM 1333 Views
Last time I checked, you guys have a vote. First past the post, sure, but it's still a vote. Tom - 10/08/2011 04:33:07 AM 1272 Views
Is there any other country that has a death penalty for children caught stealing? *NM* Tim - 10/08/2011 10:02:56 AM 719 Views
Maybe not, but we can hope there is... *NM* Tom - 10/08/2011 02:04:38 PM 663 Views
You can hope there is. Tim - 10/08/2011 02:21:17 PM 1300 Views
...you guys need a poster named Tam, and a sitcom, stat. *NM* beetnemesis - 10/08/2011 05:11:57 PM 722 Views
+1 Yunalesca - 10/08/2011 05:17:22 PM 1312 Views
Wibble is called Tam (Scots) or Tom (English), and used to go by dragon_tam. Tim - 10/08/2011 05:27:16 PM 1401 Views
LMAO *NM* Aisha - 10/08/2011 06:22:11 PM 724 Views
If you want to talk statistics... Tom - 13/08/2011 08:26:39 PM 1249 Views
So the death penalty is a deterrent for the crimes it doesn't apply to, but not for those it does? Tim - 14/08/2011 10:58:14 AM 1463 Views
No, that wasn't my point. Tom - 14/08/2011 09:39:14 PM 1406 Views
light yagami felt the same way Yunalesca - 14/08/2011 01:20:02 PM 1487 Views
Please speak English. *NM* Tom - 14/08/2011 09:39:46 PM 708 Views
They think they have a good reason for what they're doing snoopcester - 10/08/2011 11:48:52 AM 1253 Views
If they react even more indignantly to a harsh crackdown, maybe they do. Tom - 10/08/2011 02:06:04 PM 1172 Views
Oh? snoopcester - 10/08/2011 04:05:55 PM 1352 Views
This is the first I've heard of it; here's hoping and praying the damage is restricted to property Joel - 08/08/2011 06:59:06 PM 1359 Views
I am sure dart_board - 09/08/2011 06:34:40 PM 1338 Views

You will. *NM* dart_board - 10/08/2011 12:14:22 AM 672 Views

This is utterly awful. Rebekah - 08/08/2011 09:41:46 PM 1427 Views
Yeah - it has massively spread today. Just saw footage of youths looting a Sainburys in Birmingham snoopcester - 08/08/2011 09:52:32 PM 1311 Views

Might work in the US snoopcester - 09/08/2011 02:13:50 PM 1348 Views
When most of the looters are kids I can see how that would be problematic. Joel - 09/08/2011 05:18:09 PM 1318 Views
Joel I don't believe any looters were shot in the Rodney King riots random thoughts - 09/08/2011 05:41:44 PM 1281 Views
Police were, from what I understand, hard to find during those riots. Joel - 09/08/2011 05:51:11 PM 1287 Views
I am just questioning the logic of the debate taking place here random thoughts - 09/08/2011 06:33:11 PM 1277 Views
Your notoriously faulty memory is by far the lesser problem here. Joel - 09/08/2011 07:14:07 PM 1554 Views
That article supports my argument random thoughts - 09/08/2011 08:55:15 PM 1219 Views

I can't really argue with anything you've said here, so I won't try. Joel - 09/08/2011 11:11:17 PM 1432 Views
so now you are comparing the rioters to the Tea Party? I guess dartboard was almost right random thoughts - 10/08/2011 12:51:46 AM 1385 Views
I'm comparing alienation to alienation and noting that it's pervasive. Joel - 10/08/2011 01:19:49 AM 1368 Views
and I am saying you have no idea who the tea party is random thoughts - 10/08/2011 03:06:15 AM 1272 Views
I guess I should've used the Progressive Caucus instead. Joel - 10/08/2011 04:25:30 PM 1354 Views
Seriously, is it mostly kids? nossy - 08/08/2011 10:08:00 PM 1241 Views
