The other day, right?
I totally did 40 in a 30 zone. It was 6:30 on a Sunday morning and all sensible people were at home asleep, but still...
I feel totally ashamed, and I shall hand myself in at the first opportunity.

Alt: probably not a great idea to head down there. The last thing they need is more rubberneckers getting in the way.

By the way - have we all seen that footage of the boy that got mugged while injured? There's just no hope for this country, there really isn't.

Some young lad was sitting bleeding on the pavement.
A couple of looters helped him to his feet, and another unzipped his backpack and had it away with everything inside it.

London: the Mos Eisley of Earth.

We must be cautious

these are not the looters you're looking for....



those looters are down the road, breaking the windows of an organic cafe and deli!

god it was awful!
the poor kid - he was helped up and then someone just unzipped his bag and took a bunch of stuff from it and walked off. What kind of heartless cunt does that?!

watched it, unbelievable
I think these rioters really do show that there is a group of people who no longer fit into society and that all the extra schooling, youth workers etc will not change them.

We need a new Australia

All I mean is
that we need a desolate waste land filled with things that want to kill you in which to dump our underclasses, that's all!

Very difficult to envisage that anyone would warrant rescuing

My friend Hamish was out in Hoxton a few years ago.
Some drunken oaf started on him and bottled him. His head and face were pissing blood and he was collapsed on the floor. A chap ran over and asked if he was alright, asked if he wanted him to call the police & an ambulance.

He ran off with Hamish’s phone.

Do you really think that one kid getting mugged whilst in possession of a broken nose
is the signal for the end of society?
( Kroney, Tue 9 Aug 2011, 11:00, Reply)

nah
but the end of society has been in the making for quite a while. i'm not sure any one thing can sort it.

The world was a considerably more violent place only a hundred years back.
Less than that if you want to count wars. Humanity is an inherently violent species and it does not take much in the way of deprivation for us to start using force.

The only things unusual about this spell of civil disorder are the rapidity of its spread and the lack of a cause. It's all happened before and it'll all happen again.
