All these riots everywhere!!!

So sorry for all you guys who have been caught up in all this crap. I don't know the complete ins and outs, but have seen a bit on TV and it just looks ridiculous. The approach they take in northern ireland here is a no nonsense one. Plastic bullets and water cannons. Even if all the water cannons are here - could they not have shipped them over during the day today?!!
I heard a policeguy on this morning say the UK have no water cannons - last time I looked we in northern Ireland are part of the UK.
Hope everyone keeps safe xxxx

Even if they havnt got the water cannons here isnt fireengine hoses better then nothing?

Problem with that though is they are needed elswhere and the rioters arnt staying in groups they are spreading out all other so by the time a hose is set up they are out of the way and just come back and continue once the police have moved on.
They are basicly like rats.

Its shocking :( I have been in the forest all day, its silent, my kids are playing outside win the garden and its silent here, its so easy to forget what people are going through. This country is breaking my heart atm.
 
Seems to be quiet for now. Dunno if there will be trouble. Yesterday had already kicked off big time by this time.
 
Well, this made me sick. A cemetery in London has had to close, for fear of graves being defiled. That honestly makes me want to cry.

It's definitely going well so far :thumbup:

I think they'll try and fail to riot in London and the police will shut it down. Worried about other places though.
 
Jesus, did anyone else see that woman jumping out the window of her home in Croydon!!! Flipping heck!! Its shocking..
Because the news have been so focused on Ealing and Hackney I hadnt seen the pics until just now. Heartbreaking
 
Everytime I see that picture with that woman leaping for her life I well up :(
She must have been terrified :(
