This is getting crazy, there are currently riots going on around London which started in Tottenham. It has been mad.�

Any other London/English people on here? Apparently people are using Blackberry Messenger to try and get others involved.

Wow, I'd heard about them but that video is insane - looks like a disaster movie.
 
A photo of some of the looters.. Basmati rice, though?

Yeah the original riot was to do with the shooting of a guy in Tottenham, however the current riots have nothing to do with it.
 
I would not be surprised if that stuff didn't start happening here in the states after the governments shenanigans and sheer inability to get anything done without looking like idiots.

booooo

I was hoping it was an over throw the bourgeois type of thing

Eh, you never know the type of direction this could go. 

  
 
Damn son, I thought all people in London were happy like Mary Poppins.

Guess everyone is short of them toppins.
 
It's legitimately sad that this is anyone's idea of justice. Strikes, riots and uprisings used to have an actual, you know... purpose. Young people these days will do anything given a mob mentality.
 
I feel for the mom & pop store owners whose businesses are innocent bystanders of this civil unrest.
