Breaking News

Something has happened in my home country of England. Riots have broken out in London. So I am going to write a blog about it.



For a start the English are very testy people. The English are very good at riots. By that I mean they are very good at moving in mass and doing lots of damage. The problem is that unlike the Taliban or any kind of terrorist organisation, which are highly efficient and organised, the Brits are kinda more of a rabble. They don't really care what they damage or why, they just like to smash stuff for the fun of it.

In a way that makes them more dangerous because there is no rhyme or reason most of the time and even the slightest thing can get huge numbers of people into a rage and start randomly lashing out against anyone or anything that happens to be in their path.

The good thing is that there is no organisation so they don't coordinate attacks or even put any effort into any kind of cause.

The last time there was a riot the people were united for a cause and so many riots broke out for a long time.

This time however it was just that there were a lot of people in one place because of the court case and once they got pissed off about the outcome they just wanted to smash something to make them feel better.

They were all hyped by the event and it went too far.

I don't see another riot braking out any time soon but it is possible that someone might start organising these people and that might lead to a huge problem.

The British people aren't that organised but they once were and that's it happened before.

They have the potential to be very dangerous and organised but just yet they are just flailing.

The problem is that this could happen again and maybe in a week or so because the people are still very testy and tense and all it would take is for a large group of people to group together for a common cause (any cause) and you've got a riot on your hands.

But how can you stop people from protesting or simply hanging around in groups.

I fear the anger will lead people just to keep doing it over and over for no reason. Just because use British love a good riot.

It's not about race, religion, common good, anti-authority, etc. It's just misplaced rage.

From what I've heard the friends of the civilian involved in the court case came to the door to ask what was happening because the newspapers had already reported it before the police had fully investigated it.

The police then kept stalling for several hours which lead to a rather large crowd of people gathering outside the court house.

When the numbers of people grew into a large enough amount, someone realised that the police were distracted and took their opportunity to commit a crime beyond the police's access.

When the police from elsewhere turned up to sort them out, the crowd thought that the police were trying to move them on and a fight broke out.

Then everything went messed up.

I think that it has sparked something though and now there are anti-imigrant, racist, religious hatred, anti-authority, etc. groups that will meet up for a good fight now.

now that it has started, anyone will use this to cause more riots for their own purpose.

police need to play this fight politically. If they use force, the rioters will use force. Instead you should make them see reason and bargain with them. That's how you'll solve this.
