Situation In London

[SugarD]

Apparently many people are being very hush-hush about the ongoing riots in London, and the surrounding areas. Anyone have any updated news on it? All I can find is online news on some lesser popular sites. It seems even Yahoo! kept it quiet by pretending nothing happened, and my local news refused to acknowledge anything. Americans must be having it silenced for one reason or another.

Ya, I saw that link in the Media Center topic and I started watching it. My best guess is the U.S. Government doesn't want us to see another first-world country rioting when we are already on the brink of economic disaster.

In the end, they'll just blame the US when they had nothing to do with it.

Wouldn't be surprised. There's likely going to be a lot of historical references to the Rodney King case when this whole mess is over.

What possible reasoning could be conjured to blame the US for this? The event occured when people began protesting against the killing of a man, who was shot and killed by the police. The situation then rapidly escalated, and before you knew it the whole city was rioting and in flames.

But the vast majority are only rioting so they can steal shit because they're pathetic scum without jobs. Not because they're protesting or fighting for a cause.

So what? A couple of people trolling. I do however see a top comment expressing aggitation that the US haven't started rioting as well, considering the circumstances.

If we start rioting and destroying are own country, we will end up with nothing.

Guys, let's discuss this, not fight about it. This is a pretty serious situation. A lot of our fellow Argonathian friends are from the U.K.

By rioting I didn't necessarily mean start destroying your own country, now did I. I do not approve and fucking despise the situation my country currently faces. But however, there's nothing wrong with a peaceful protest.
