RiotingHow do you feel about the rioting that is going on at the moment? Do you feel it's justified? Do you feel that people have a right to violently protest? Do you think it solves issues by showing people in government how passionate you are? Or is it mindless, sensless destruction that is causing misery, bankruptcy, loss and physical injury to innocent people for no just cause whatsoever? (I think you can guess my stance)

The second part, BC, without a doubt. Opportunistic looting and senseless destruction in the vast majority of cases. |

I am all for protests but this is just organised crime, it has nothing at all to do with the death of a young man. I saw some video footage of a young man on the ground with a head injury, one or two young men helped him to his feet. At that point you thought they weren't all that bad but then there was a rush of others and they all had a hand in robbing the poor guy. That is just sickening. Peoples lives, businesses are being destroyed and for what? I beleive this is what happens when we go too far to the left, cannt use water cannons because its againt their human rights etc etc, what about the rights of the vicitms and the innocent? Mind you it doesnt help when the police and those in power are corrupt, theiving gits either. This country needs a complete overhaul. |

Completely agree with you, Elaine, except perhaps for your last sentence! My brother is a police Inspector in the Met, he retires this year and neither hin nor any of his colleagues are corrupt, he has only ever done his best and risked his life for the force like the majority of police, of course there will always be the occasional wrong 'un. The government, well I don't think they are much use! |

I am sure your brother is a good man Kim but the force as a whole do not command my respect as I have witnessed first hand how rotten they can be and how they can conspire amongst themselves to hide their wrong doings. And we all know that there are many corrupt polititions out there. However none of that can take away that the rioters MUST be held accountable for destroying peolpes lives, homes and business's. |

I think they should be allowed to send in the water canons etc, it's time these morons were shown there are consequences for breaking the law. The media should be gagged for inciting some of these issues. They have way too much power and do not wield it responsibly. |
