British politician calls for protesters to be shot:

If this happens, I would be fully in support of US intervention for support of the protesters in the style of Libya.

I'm ready for some intervention on your rabid postings.

Arab Spring followed by a British Summer?

Let's hope for the UK what happened in Egypt.

Perhaps there will be a European Summer or European Autumn. People are yearning for freedom, something more than constant oppression.

Who gives a shit what China thinks about safety or the Olympics?

Well, let's see...there are over a billion peopled in China. Not nearly that many in the UK. So I'd say that a lot more people care about what China thinks about safety of the Olympics than expressly don't care about it.

 

[MotF Bane]

I do.



I'm not cheering on rioters, however, I do cheer on the protestors seeking equality and fighting the corrupt and illegitimate government.

The rioters are your protesters.

And that you care about China's opinion so much with respect to the Olympics or safety just further proves how out of touch with reality you are.

 

[HAL9000]

It's not xenophobic to dislike a government for its ridiculous policies and actions.

You have an irrational supremacist attitude about the UK.

You have an irrational supremacist attitude of your own nation.

You are a supremacist.

I do.

Oh! Then you are in the wrong thread, this thread is about a riot, not some righteous protest against a government, these people have no political motivation they are delusional morons, who want to steal.

You're using population size as justification? Try again.

I suppose that we will have to agree to disagree. I am just in support of protesters fighting for their rights, just as we saw in Egypt, Tunisia, Libya, Syria, Yemen, etc. Just because we are now focused on a European country doesn't mean that all of a sudden protesting for your rights is wrong.

These people feel disenfranchised. They are suffering through austerity measures while their government is lavishing wealth on one family, their government is spending billions on an event that these disenfranchised people will never be able to attend, and their government is forcing unwanted austerity measures on them. I fully support protest against a corrupt government.

 

[CanOWorms]

It looks like the nation-wide protests are spreading. A military unit has also been put on standby to potentially prop up the government if it is about to fall.

London riots spread to provinces on fourth night of trouble

The Metropolitan Police also said it would consider firing plastic bullets, never before used on the mainland, against the rampaging gangs, while police leave was cancelled and special constables drafted in.

The Army’s emergency infantry battalion, known as the Spearhead Lead Defence, has been put on standby should the civil unrest worsen, The Daily Telegraph has learned.

Scary.

Which would be utterly ridiculous. There is no cause for America to intervene on the behalf of rioting scum.

 

[RabidMongoose]

You're using population size as justification? Try again.

I'm just showing that a lot of people do care what China thinks about the safety of the Olympic Games. Certainly more than expressly do not.

I realize that a lot of them are not of European descent, but they are still people.

 

[HAL9000]

This is a plea to everyone in the thread, please stop replying to RabidMongoose and CanOfWorms​

This could be a serious thread about a real issue that is directly effecting me and others on the forum. I'm genuinely getting upset by the constant trolling from these two posters and the more we feed their delusions the worse they become. So lets just leave them alone.

Please.

Wondering about the opinion of one of the world's most important countries seems to be in touch with reality. Ignoring their position means that you're out of touch with reality.

 

[RabidMongoose]

I see no significant difference between this issue and Libya. The US supported the Libyan protesters, it should also support the British protesters IF the government becomes violent against them. In fact, I bet it would expedite the entire situation; the government would capitulate within a day.

Do you have a macro to spam out all that shit about "suffering through austerity measures while the government lavishes wealth on blah blah blah"?

What you are supporting is looting, rioting, and violence - not organized peaceful protests. Or do you indicate you support violent protests, classify these riots as violent political protests, and also support them for burning cars, assaulting innocents, shooting each other, smashing up stores, and "liberating" electronics? Choose one or the other.

Your list of Middle Eastern/African nations has no comparison to Britain. First world versus third world (perhaps second?) countries, a variant on democracy versus a pile of despotic regimes, et cetera. There is no correlation. Although perhaps you cheapen the struggles of the Middle Eastern/African people, by comparing their efforts at reform, and to overthrow murderous dictators, to the actions of a bunch of trash destroying their city.

Scary.

It's about time they brought in the military.

Still not valid reasoning. Try again.

 

[HAL9000]

Has anyone here ever been directly caught up in a riot? If so what did you do, I'm quite worried about a friend of mine who lives very close to a big on in London right now.

"ridiculous policies and actions" not found

Forcing austerity measures on people while funding the lavish lifestyle of an inbred family seems ridiculous.

Oh! Then you are in the wrong thread, this thread is about a riot, not some righteous protest against a government, these people have no political motivation they are delusional morons, who want to steal.

Of course they have political motivation. The austerity cuts led to this. Some may want to steal, others want to topple the corrupt government, etc.

 

[Abwx]

Sorry, but I haven't made any xenophobic statements. However, I see extreme nationalism in your attempts to stifle dissent to some fake image of the UK.

The country where the house you buy is yours and your family s
for only 99 years before being returned for free to the grand children
of the inbred that did "sold it" to you..

 

[MotF Bane]

Wondering about the opinion of one of the world's most important countries seems to be in touch with reality. Ignoring their position means that you're out of touch with reality.

Their opinion with regards to the Olympics and to public safety are both totally irrelevant, as established by their own track record. Or, to take another tack, they lack a freely elected government chosen by the working class people that you are so enamored of; why then are you apt to take the opinion of China, which is of course spewed forth from a government mouthpiece? I guess you don't actually care about the rights of the individual.

Then you are mentally deficient.

Fancy that, you sound exactly like your sock puppet!

We're now at an interesting crossroads in the situation, and one which will probably yield an answer soon :

Will increased force from security forces/police be met with additional force and violent action from protestors? Or will it quell things. I could see either way happening really. All it would take is a couple of kids getting killed by overzealous officers, and you'd see an all-new wave of vitriol and anarchy rise. Or you might send them scurrying ..

Safe bet is increased force will settle things down.

That's what happen's when peeps don't help other peeps enough. Should help those less fortunate and solve problems instead of making it worse, know what i'm sayin?
