  • @justicepartyuk Funny how the neighborhoods who defended their communities and shops were the Turkish and Kurdish immigrants then, along with Sikhs. Oh and those muslims who had 3 of their men run over for trying to defend the local businesses and killed for no reason, who then held a candlelight vigil the night after and decided, as a community, that despite their feelings it would be disrespectful to protest. You can't tar all immigrants with the same brush.

  • @keltic185 Hahahaha,"scum like me"? What exactly am I, then? My country has no future? Oh, really? Now I could go and write paragraph upon paragraph of why America is going downhill, and how much better England currently has it. I'm not going to insult the Americans, as I respect a lot of them, except for your kind. And roll over like dogs? Actually hundreds of us fought back to these shit-head rioters. And Fatter than americans? HAHA. Our country is about as big as California, show me the stats

  • @ecotts ...suddenly i feel a lot safer :(, and yes i have seen more force on peaceful protests.

  • @blueray1969 blame higher power really, sad to see its the little people who get the the brunt of the punch :(

  • @R0B0stairs I stand by that 'foolish opinion' as whats the worst that can happen really, and I mean REALLY, lets face it facts are facts, these dicks will get a slap on the wrist, a warning, and possible jail time for a matter of months; during which period of time they will be looked after better than if they were on the streets. This country has become a joke, where the justice system is pathetic and these scum know it hence why they do what they do. They have no consience and no fear.

  • He's got enough money, they could just go and get another bike :-)
