England Riots (because its not just London, is it)

so I found it interesting to read, that the only people stepping up to protect their streets, were Turkish and Bengali residents. Good on 'em, I was amazed at this, and it made me feel a little bit more proud.

These riots have really got me down the last few days, its something I cant really get my head around. I live in Huddersfield, and there was trouble up at the Asda last night. ASDA? I mean, WHY?

These riots were never about Mark Duggan, they are not about anythig political, they are an excuse for bored thugs to gang together and create havoc. And they have done that, spectacularly. I have no idea, how law and order will be restored. The police have proved to be out numbered, and powerless, so how the hell are they going to catch these criminals, and stop this from happening again? They wont, what has happened here, is the thug-youths have been given a lease that has made them even more fearless.

I just hope that something is done, and I really hope that the rest of the country looks at what the Turkish and Bengalis did, and mirrors it. Its hard, and you have to be very brave, but I say well done to those people for protecting what they love.
