ahemJust because the rioters are 'criminal scum', does not mean it is not sensible to work out (and implement) ways of reducing the production of 'criminal scum' attitudes in the future.
Edit: it's nice that y'all can pattern match and work out that vandals/looters are antisocial criminals. But pattern matching gives only a diagnosis, it isn't a cure. A cure involves understanding the dynamics of how people come to behave like that, and working to change or control those dynamics.

excellentI notice there aren't any angry responses to this. Is it because you're more concise, or simply because you're absolutely right?
