UK police avoid casualties as much as possible. Unless lives are threatened directly, they won't use severe brutality such as guns (as a rule of thumb)

I think the general mindset is that buisnesses and buildings can be rebuilt, it'll just cost money.
A human life isn't really something that can be rebuilt...

Hopefully this bullshit will stop soon, because it's getting stupid.

I remember watching a show about a new roit stopping device they are working on that can cause a burning sensation to masses of people without hurting them in the slightest. They would stop what they are doing instantly.

Eh sorry to bring that up but it would be a wonderful invention in these situations.

I have so much respect for this woman.

Mom said no.

You should do it.
Bos are very effective against guns.

No one had guns, but someone definafely had a killstreak cos there was a chopper flying over my house *NerdLaugh* Besides, mom said no, so...

On a serious note I had family out there, was worried sick, and although they only broke into shops and stuff whats to stop them from breaking into houses? I fear for my family.

I saw on the news that some people think the youths behind this are trying to prove a point to politicians. But most of these people are too stupid to care about that crap. Although I think it is concerning how organised the attacks are. I mean, there are thousands of teenagers spontaneously rioting in London, and as soon as security in London rises, they attack the other major cities. And the fact that David Cameron is on holiday at that point too.

See, this is what happens when you leave Nick Clegg in charge for five minutes

People are just trying to figure out a way to understand it, and claiming that the rioters are doing it to prove a point is fucking dumb.
Like the video mentioned, what's the fucking cause?
Lets riot for a cause, meanwhile, I'll break into this store, steal a PS3, and then burn down the building.
Some damn point.

The cause died too long ago

this is just a spitting on the grave of the cause.

Seriously, who the fuck would even defend stupid shit like this?

Microwave guns. As in, laser guns. These are a real thing, and frankly they should be utilized to quell some of this. They singe you just underneath the skin (fun fact: microwaves cause water molecules to start spinning like crazy and become hot, and you're made of water, etc.), nothing lethal but definitely painful. It's a better alternative than using the sound cannons (I don't think those can be focused into small groups so it'll get to bystanders too, iirc) and water cannons (which can physically hurt people).

I'm wondering if there was even a cause to begin with.

Far as I am concerned Mark Duggan's death was only a crutch for this series of nonsense to begin.

There's some issues with using microwave radiation as a non-lethal deterrent, especially at a high enough level to cause physical pain, it's unclear if it causes cancer or not for a start, but we know it definitely can cause severe burns and cataracts in the eyes, and will very effectively fry electronics, including pacemakers.

There are a number of potential systems that could be used, from AOD tazer systems through to cayenne pepper based teargas shotgun rounds.
However, unless you can work out a way to get them deployed across the country and train officers to use them in a day, they're not an option.
Water cannons are an option, they're definitely not directly lethal, and anyone close enough to be directly injured by the water pressure is far too close to the van, and as a rule innocent bystanders don't gravitate towards riot van perimeters.
If anything else sparks up again I wouldn't complain about the use of water cannons.

Thankfully it seems like things are quieting down again now, there's still potential for another sudden unexpected escalation, but right now it looks like things are getting back into hand.

Welp, just saw this.
Don't know if it's legit but if it is.
Humanity is fucked.

What a piece of utter shit. I'm going to try as hard as I can to get any information that could lead to her arrest. I suggest you all do the same.

I honestly think she's a fucked up person in general.

Look at half of the shit on her account, she acts like she's better than everyone else and announces to everyone she is drinking/smoking/whatever, and she's bragging about the retarded things she did.

I thought the cunts that are in my town were bad.

If true, I hope the cyberpolice backtrace her.

And then throw her in jail for attempted murder of a police officer.

... You sure it isn't a troll?
