Fricking customer had to call at the wrong time. Felt like putting the phone down lol. Thought better not, no other jobs out there at the moment lol.

Honestly though, a little too late dont ya think?

For those that don't know - Baton rounds are the use of non-leathal guns - Bean bag/plastic bullet/rubber bullet xx

Yeah maybe if the polititions came back when it first kicked off it would have been of more use!

[cherryglitter]

it is too late! why has it had to come to cities being destroyed.

 

[cherryglitter]

screw the bean bags, just use bullets lol!

 

[KittyVentura]

I correct myself - It's bean bag AND/OR plastic/rubber bullets xx

 

[TwilightAgain]

Think its a sure thing its going to kick off somewhere tonight?

 

[iceylou]

because of Polictical Correctness and the stupidity of the government hoping it will stop if they threaten the thugs with prison

 

[cherryglitter]

i think it's gunna kick off purely because people are gunna be trying to push their luck now.

Their not hundred per cent weather it was connected with the riots but stands a bloomin chance!!!!
A guy has been arrested related to the incident.
They were mowed down, 2 died at scene and another later in hospital. 2 brothers and a friend.

Always someone

He could win if he'd:

A - Returned from holiday sooner (really he SHOULD have returned based on the economic crisis that unfolded on Friday)
B - Authorised water cannon & baton rounds MUCH sooner
C - Not allowed the patronising c*nt that is Theresa May to come on TV and say "Oh that's not how we police in Britain". Arrogant Tw*t.
D - LISTENED to the good guys. The ones defending the goverment and police when they said on Monday that water cannons/the army were needed.

YES he has now taken some action but it's too little too late. The announcement that water cannons are available at 24 hr notice seems really an attempt to placate those that are pissed off with his lack of stronger action. Really they've ALWAYS been available at 24 hr notice. They're only in NI. All he's done is said it would be considered.

People DIED last night because they felt UNprotected on their own streets. The felt that they HAD to stand out and defend their community and neighbourhood because the police were overwhelmed. Some Yob mowed those 3 people down.

HAD Dave given the police the authority to act STRONGER, HARDER & FASTER yesterday then perhaps this could have been avoided and those 3 young men would have felt reassured and that they did not need to go out and defend their country themselves.

So yes, people ARE pissed off. Just because he has acted now we cannot be expected to just ignore his failure to agree action that most of the UK requested 2 days ago!

its all very well using a water cannon now but in which city?? no doubt it will be london but that doesn't help in birmingham, manchester or wherever else they start tonight!

on another note - do you know any of these people: https://www.flickr.com/photos/metropolitanpolice/sets/72157627267892973/with/6025489240/

All of this is heartbreaking. It's really touching to see communities pulling together to sort out the cities. Bless them all.
