Yup. It all seemed to start off as a peaceful protest for a guy who got shot by police, but it has just escalated into mindless violence and crime. People are just sheep, which is why the riots are spreading to different areas of London and the UK. Hopefully there's an end to this soon, as it's been happening for a few days now.

This is a national emergency, and the British public need protecting, get the army in there!

Riots and protests in UK, Italy, greece, probably spain. Europe seems to be in anarchy, and what happens if greece or italy goes down, The Euro will go through the floor and all Europe will go into chaos, probably dragging USA and possibly japan with it, while China rises up to be the new superpower.

I get the impression that all of these riots are race riots. I understand that a black man was shot by police the other day, in front of people, and the majority of the people who held a peaceful protest were black, and a lot of the people that I have seen causing the trouble are black. I don't know whether it's simply a coincidence that the live footage is showing mostly black people, but that's the link I'm making from it.

It mirrors the national race riots that started here in Liverpool in the not-so-distant past, in Toxteth. A black lad was beaten up and arrested by police, and it sparked a mass race riot across the UK. Let's hope that doesn't happen again...

99.9% of the UK, are you actually an idiot? Where do you read your news? Sort out your selection of news sources, because there are no where near even 20% rioting. It's small pockets of scum bags in selected places setting buildings on fire. Collectively, there have only been several buildings set on fire in the UK so far, as well as a number of cars in surrounding areas.

You clearly don't understand the media and how they can make mountains out of mole hills.

So, you would willingly go out and be a part of these wierdos and freaks? I just don't get it. For what actual cause, to what avail? If you reply with another pro-rioting post then I'm not even going to bother trying to make you see sense. It just makes me rage because it's pointless, it's criminal, it's scummy and it's terrorism. This is terrorism and should be treated as such.

It's bad for us in Merseyside and Liverpool because it isn't as big as London is, so it has more of an impact on us, doesn't it? I could see all of the helicopters hovering over and around the city centre from my window. As soon as I seen the Echo confirming the riots I just felt ashamed.

It's shocking. You just don't expect it to happen in these places. Hopefully the Army regulars/reserves are called in today/tonight to back-up the police.

Why use riot shields to invite the yobs to throw things? Get the sub-machine guns and rifles out for intimidation. Load them with rubber bullets and get the gas on the go.

That what I was thinking, that would've scared most of the rioters off if they actually did it.

It definitely would have scared them off, because people who riot are nothing but scum bags and cowardice pussies who hide behind the next person for protection whilst they're doing wrong and directly or indirectly hurt people.

I hope that if things kick off tonight that a lot of rioters get hit/wounded in some way and they just rot in the gutter. They're not human, so ambulances should just roll on by and ignore them. If they do the things that they have been doing for the past few days then they should all lose their human rights. They're all terrorists and they should be treated as such. If that was Al Qaeda then they all would have been shot on sight. What's the difference this time?

What is to say that Al Qaeda and other organisations won't see this as a perfect opportunity for cover, so that they can blow stuff up elsewhere in the country? Maybe I'm over-thinking things of course, but it's all things that the defence secretaries must be thinking about themselves, for precaution.

This isn't Egypt or Athens, this is Great Britain for **** sake.

But in UK they they dont riot because of a dictatorship(as they did in Egypt).

But all of them are scumbags, they have probably just waited until a peacefull protest would start as a front to start a riot. I say lock them into the tower and let the crows feed on them so they do something good atleast.

I was just generalising rioting, I should have clarified. It's just not the British way to riot; British people protest with their voice and their signs. Riots broke out in the 80s in Britain (which actually started off not too far away from where I live in this city) but that was a race riot, not directly caused by majority British people.

It started off as a peaceful protest for a black man (who had a firearm) that got shot by police last week, which then turned into mindless violence. Copycat riots started to emerge, and now it has turned into wide-spread, sporadic riots across the UK, especially London.

Notable places include London, London's surrounding suburbs, Birmingham, Bristol, Manchester, Leeds, Bristol, Wolverhampton, West Brom and where I live in Liverpool. Riots, looting and arson is happening in all of these places.

We've seen football hooligans group up with other football club fans to fight back against the rioters, to protect their cities and towns and its people, which is ****ing awesome; vigilantes for the win!
The only problem is now the EDL (English Defence League - Racists) have joined up with these fans to fight the rioters, because they're predominantly black and middle eastern people who are rioting.

There has been a lot of reports that these new groups of vigilantes (town defence) are chasing after the rioters to beat them down and have them retreat back to where they came from. This is helping the police, but it could have serious repercussions and cause a more serious problem, a civil war or even a race war.

So to conclude, we have police and vigilantes fighting back at the rioters with no sign of it dying down just yet. Looting and Arson is at a high, and disturbance is widespread.

All police leave has been cancelled. Government stated there's no need for Army support just yet. Plastic bullets to be used against rioters. 16,000 policemen and women are standing their ground, and patrolling the areas of London, with many towns and cities setting up precautionary defences.

It's all kicking off!!

Haha! Good plan.
However, there is good news. There have been no reported rioting incidents in Merseyside and Liverpool tonight. Everything is clear, for now.

Massive goings on in Manchester though. City centre is being hit hard by pre-planned attacks. Arndale Centre has just been broken into, and surrounding areas and shops are pretty much war zones if you can call it that.

Haha! Good plan.
However, there is good news. There have been no reported rioting incidents in Merseyside and Liverpool tonight. Everything is clear, for now.

Massive goings on in Manchester though. City centre is being hit hard by pre-planned attacks. Arndale Centre has just been broken into, and surrounding areas and shops are pretty much war zones if you can call it that.

Travel to Arndale Centre and suit up soldier. SAVE THE U.K.

But in all seriousness...this is crazy. :S

At least no one has beheaded a mummy yet...like in Egypt.

yeah, they (the news) will probably talk about this guy that played call of duty or doom or whatever and that made him go out on the streets and fight.

Like I know that there was a gardener that blamed GTA that some youths destroyed his flowers.

Mass march of football fans defending Eltham has turned into a full scale march/assault all the way to Woolwich. They are now known as the "National Front."

They are currently marching in their hundreds, sweeping the streets. However, there are a lot of racist movements popping up now.

Hahaha. Everyone MUST check this out.

There is this Old Spice advert that is on television in the UK at the moment, and it is rather funny as it is. There has now been a new script made for the advert by some random member of the public in regards to what the guy in the advert would be saying about these people who are rioting here in England at the moment.

First of all, you have to watch the video below before I copy & paste the new content for the advert script, or else it won't be funny at all.
Once you have watched the video, you must then read the new script in his voice, because that is what perfects the genius idea behind this.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=owGykVbfgUE

Now, remember, read this in the guy's voice. Make sure you've watched the whole of that advert above before you continue:

‎"Hello Rioters. Look at your friend, now back to me. Now at your friend, now back to me. Sadly, he isn't me, but if he stopped using petrol bombs and started using job centre he could potentially be me. Look down, back up. Where are we? You're at an interview with the man your friend could work for. What's in your hand? Back at me. I have it. It's an application form to that job you need. Look again. The form is now money. Anything is possible when you get a job and stop looting."

It has massively settled now today. Police presence is at it's maximum possible, and the weather is atrocious which helps.

There are reports of minor disturbances, but nothing too out of the ordinary.

there has been no updates since yesterday so our thinking is that its all stopped.
its about time it did as well silly poeple going out to cause troubble.
the poor women that woke up to them standing over her bed... they only took a box of old books that were in her porch... now shes too scared to go back to sleep.
there was a women that had to jump out of a burning buildding to save herself.
two men where killed due to some thug running them over.
people where out looting with their kids some even had buggies with them.
i truley believe that not one person that was involved in all the riots actually know why they where doing it. one stupid women claimed she was doing it to claim back her taxes... hold on you've just caused so much damage now we are all going to have to pay more taxes just to fix what you stupid people have done... well done!
another claimed he was doing it because he could... and no one could do anything about it! another claimed he was doing it for freedom! so all in all they have scared thousands of people...caused millions of pounds worth of damage... closed several family run businesses...killed and injured innocent people just because you can! stupid stupid thugs!!!!!!!!!!!!

Haha, true that! There are rumours that fans are outside of Goodison this evening/tonight doing some sort of protest. NOT A RIOT THOUGH. ;)

What good is a protest going to do though? It's not going to change anything. Protests can't magic money into the club; idiots. It's fans like that who don't take the club's situation seriously, and force club boards into making unnecessary decisions.
