"Rioting is Nature's way of telling a government that it's not doing its job properly." --H. Sacristan

Of course that is taking the whole thing far too lightly, and I do not want anyone to think I am not desperately unhappy and worried about my friends and about all innocent bystanders who will suffer from this. Please, everyone, be careful, especially when travelling.

Reminds me of the LA riots. Glad you guys are safe.

Please stay safe.

I'm a little confused here. I thought British police did not carry guns, yet the original flap was over a policeman shooting a citizen. But if the police have guns, why have they been so inept in dealing with the riots? Yes I know, typical American wild west attitude, but I'd appreciate an attitude adjustment from someone closer to the issues.
