# I'm quite used to the patchy reporting we tend to get when British police shoot someone.
I'm also unsurprised when such things are greeted by some locals as an excuse to loot the shit out of the surrounding stores - stores most other residents tend to rely heavily on.

# The Met have a certain amount of form when shooting the wrong people
for making up all sorts of lies. Brazillian electricians, someone with a table legs in a bag, that guy they shot on a terrorism bust who was found not to be a terrorist, so they claimed he had child porn and then it turned out he didn't, that sort of thing...

# they also have a far lower kill rate than the members of the public doing all the stabbing and shooting to their neighbours
who are sometimes only guilty of living in a different postcode.
I'm in no way defending the police involved if they acted incorrectly here or saying who is to blame. But perspective is needed which is what is currently missing.

Anyway, too heavy for a Sunday, must dash.

# I didn't say the case was dodgy.
I said that the Met are particularly bad at public relations when they goon something up, hence the reply to the comment about the patchy news over the whole thing.

# in short
they're a set o' cunts....if there was no reaction they'd start killing left right and centre....this helps keep 'em in check

# Nope.
The rioters need a damn' good hiding/jail sentence, but I was commenting more on the patchy distribution of news on shootings involving the Met.
