These riots started for the apparent killing of a teenager, Mark Duggan by a police officer. A peaceful protest started in Tottenham which then became out of control, as certain people decided to burn bins and other properties. The protest that started in Tottenham spread to other parts of the country such as Ealing, Croydon, East Ham, Clapham and the list goes on!
This is disgusting, outrageous and absolutely unforgivable! There is no reason, to impose such hate on ones' own country for any reason. These people claim that they are doing this for the killing of Duggan, but to be honest, most of them are just bored and are using this, as a way to steal things more easily. Many retail stores have been broken into and supermarkets have been burnt down. It is not only youths who are doing this; one by stander states that he saw a mum help her son, carry boxes of clothes from shops such as Primark. It's purely inexcusable!
Some people claim that it is the rise of the tuition fees that have sparked off this kind of hatred towards the country, but I know for sure that most of the people on the road causing such harm, probably have and will never set foot in any university. Call me judgmental, but someone with a brain will know that burning buildings and destroying the country will not solve anything.
The picture on the left is the result of the Tottenham riots, while the picture on the right is the result of 7/7 bombing attacks by the terrorists. Is there much of a difference? Both events caused misery, despair and destruction the country. Why do we need them, when people of this country do their jobs perfectly?
The same British public that claim that they don't have a job due to the rise of immigrants are now to blame for the destruction of their beloved country.
This is a crime done due to boredom, lack of job and lack of education. I hope to God, they all get arrested and never see the light of day again!
My heart goes out to the many police officers who patrolled the streets of London all night, to prevent further crime and also to the fire brigade. We are so proud to have such a hard working police force.
What are your views on the riots?
