London riots: Violence erupts for third day

[ThePowerOutage]

Are there any estimated damage costs at this point? It sounds like they are burning down just about everything.
No idea. But we are talking big, considering the huge damage down at Ealing and Croydon.
Looting and breaking shops at most places..

QUOTE(ThePowerOutage @ Aug 9 2011, 08:59 AM) Anyone know what it's like in north finchley

Havent heard anything from there. Most likely nothing happening.

@Mantis41
Not necessarily. Residential areas in Hackney and Ilford was under attack.

Yeaaaaahhhhh!!!!

Burn sony BURN! This picture brought so much joy to me this morning

Couldn't figure you would be 26 yo making such silly comments about endangering crimes like this

I made that comment from a Nintendo fan's point of view. I just cant stand Sony. Between the events of late last and early this year and their constant "stealing" and "improving" of Nintendo's idea, I just despise them. Sure, I want the people to be safe but if that building burns down, let it burn!

A BBC journalist has spoken to two girls that took part in Monday night's riots in Croydon, who boasted that they were showing police and "the rich" that "we can do what we want".

And according to them, the local store owners are the "rich people" that "got businesses" and the rioters are "showing them." Also, it's all "the gubbmint's fault."

Criminal gets shot by armed police after shooting at them. People's reaction "Lets go on a thieving campaign, that'll show em!!one1!"? I missed the beginning of this, hell I only found out about it yesterday, but I don't get it at all. Yes there's rumours that he was shot multiple times in the head in an assassination, but that does not ring true at all and has being categorically denied by the IPCC. And would anyone from the UK believe it? Nah, not at all. If they say they do they are really lying and looking for an excuse to be a *snip*.

[Originality]

Yeah, lots of people talking about what they stole and posting pictures and vids on FB and twitter. It's like sticking a flag above your house saying "I'm an idiot, arrest me".

The pic is the way I found it. I wouldn't have bothered censoring anything. I don't care about preserving her privacy. Either way, people found her Facebook account and tons of personal info. Serves her right.

My aunt lives in Clapham where it has just gone down the drain. She's only around the corner from the high street. It was bound to happen though, look at what happened the last time the conservatives were in power. Hopefully they'll call another general election to get that wanker David Cuntflap out. Maybe they'll kill him.

amen, i really do hope so, that zionist has caused enough trouble for our country already.

They've deleted their Twitter account now, shame as I wanted to see just how thick they were.

Talking of Twitter, I've been following a couple of journos from the Guardian for the last couple of days who've been right in the thick of it and have been giving reports from all this shit.

makes sense why.

@jalaneme
hows things down at your area?

Only a local Indian store got smashed. Which is always at risk of being smashed anyway, now they had an excuse to attack.
Buses from here are not going towards Barking Station. So going around Ilford to get to Barking.

 

[Jamstruth]

I'm not sure that's real. At the same time human stupidity is infinite so I may just be underestimating the sheer dumbass-ery of some people.

I'm beginning to question it myself, but on the other hand, during the Vancouver riots, people were tweeting and posting pics of themselves looting on Facebook. So yeah.

 

[tommyt]

One thing I can't understand is why is the violence spreading to Liverpool and Bristol even Birmingham.

Sadly, it continues:

Breaking News

In the last hour several shop windows have been smashed in West Bromwich. Up to 200 youths in hoodies have been seen on the streets and police have now pushed the crowd to one side.

that woman looks like a right typical slag, also they think they won't get caught but on bbc news they said they are watching twitter and facebook + all other social networking sites with high surveillance, that girl is pretty much screwed now, all they need to do is find her ip address and shes a gonner.

as for rioting, i went out today and all i heard about was that argos in bromley got smashed and that's it, i didn't see any other shops getting smashed or cars on fire so it's ok in bromley, who knows what it will be like in the evening though.
