im thinking of changing the title of this video to "DAVID LLOYD PREDICTS LONDON RIOTS 3 YEARS EARLIER AT 4:30 IN A 6 MINUTE VIDEO" . He was so spot on with the assement of the conditions for the madness that came about. Damn.

Hmmm, I think that's a trend coming from the states, and i hope, it's just a trend and passes.

I'd like to think if someone was hurt or on the floor they'd call an ambulance.

I saw someone in a similar situation and called the ambulance and waited with the woman till it came along. Ithink she had some type of seizure.

@Red23791 You're not wrong.. I was cycling through Highgate last year, an old woman had fallen over and was in the road, and people were just driving round her ! I stopped to help her, her dog had run off, but luckily was in her doorway when I got her back there (only 50yds) .. The TV's got social engineering allriight.. But we can still just about reach the off button.. ;-)

I don't think people are very happy actually. The UK is a very miserable country socially. People will not go out their way to talk to each other in the street, if somebody collapsed in public, people would probably just walk past except the few who do decide to help. People are so fearful and paranoid that they hide in their fortified homes. Everyone watches too much TV and believes all the propaganda they're shown.
