Spoke to an ex-colleague/friend this morning and he informed me one of the local Tactical Riot Squads (35 crazies and some of whom I had trained briefly with in the past) have been transferred to Manchester today.

I've wished them well but part of me is worrying more than a little bit.

It's against the government? It's governments fault?

Not that I'm anti-government, but how come when protesters hit the streets in the middle east its everyone cheering for freedom and democracy! When it happens in our own backyard they're stupid, unthinking, children who should be shot.

Wonder if we'll see a headline with one of these unknown brave rebel freedom fighters for, democracy, social justice and regime change to start pleading the U.S. to bomb London like Bush did in Iraq. LOL

I found the news item on the looting in London was of note, a row of shops looted or burnt but when they came to a bookshop they left that untouched!

Cameron is boring the heck out of me with his speeches..."I will do what ever it takes". Well do it then.

No wonder shop owners took to the streets last night in London to protect there shops, clearly they saw it was down to them too do something.

Sheffield police is on high alert for tonight after reports of minor disturbances in Huddersfield were reported earlier last night,but was quickly brought under control.
Sheffield is a proud city with a proud past and I dearly hope that most Sheffielders are better than this and will NOT tolerate any damage to our city under any circumstances.If trouble DOES flare up I suspect most residents opposed to these creatures plus Sheffield Wednesday and Sheffield United football fans may band together and confront them,sending them back to the vile pit they were vomited from!
I went into the city centre earlier about 1 hr ago and a couple of riot vans were parked close to a busy shopping plaza but everything looks quiet.I sincerely hope it stays that way.
To those that think something of their cities remain vigilant and stick together if you can,the Rudeltaktik is not just useful at sea you know

Keep us posted as and when you all hear of any new developments,be it on the news or in your local area.

Gods be with us!

Cameron needs a punch in the teeth mate,leaving locals to defend their properties.

Really hope they are tactical firearms teams Jim,because I fear tonight is going to be hell for a lot of people,including the police. I just cant understand why this lame country is so opposed to using even rubber bullets when these filthy animals are ruthlessly assaulting,maiming and looting at will
Last night the police said they will fight fire with fire,and the order to shoot has not been ruled out yet.I dearly hope they 'stick to their guns'

I bought The Sun newspaper (page 8) earlier and it has a few statistics of the percentage of people in the country opposed and unopposed to various methods of dealing with this crisis.They are as follows:

water cannon - 90%
tear gas - 78% <--- used in conjunction with no6 and you have a great backup support weapon against large groups of rioters heading your way
tasers - 72%
mounted police - 84%
plastic bullets - 65%
firearms/live ammunition - 33 <--- used in combination with the last option and you have a certain winner,no more rioters and people can get to sleep safely again.And I dont care about all this garbage about,oh they are just poor kids,you cant massacre kids and civilians on the streets of England,BULLS##T! ,ive had enough of them now and they need gunning down,every god damn one of them! you dont see me or anyone else currently having financial difficulties caused by this insane government resorting to this dispicable behaviour! They are taking the pi## with us,the police and our country,they think they can just do what they please when they please,and this has to STOP!
curfews - 82%
army - 77% <--- this is my favourite option,and should definitely be considered if things escalate completely out of control.Either that or say goodbye to your cities.

Bleedin' typical!
Damn this government is flippin useless beyond comprehension!
It also comes to light too that the minister of defence has sparked outrage by taking 5 members of his staff with him on a trip to Spain,at taxpayers' expense,while the taxpayers get their properties and homes looted.
Nice one Liam Fox,you dickhead!

Sickened by your last post Paul Riley.

'The Sun' fascistlunaticpoisonpaper? a major cause of embarrasment for Britain and British people the world over. Everything single thing they write should be considered at the very least inflammatory, manipulative and untrue. Tabloids like this are part of the problem, not the solution.

First of all, 2500ish people is not representative of British society, though maybe of the collective total of brain cells that sun readers have between them. Secondly, plastic bullets = firearms/live ammunition. Shows something about the (lack of) intelligence behind this poll.

Bringing in the Army is not an option. The army is deployed already. Unless you're arguing that we bring them back now, that I would agree with.

I dont care what you think,i'm bloody sick of this and its about time some of you grew a god damn spine! do you know what it feels like to live in fear in your own home and then to not get help when you desperately need it? do you know how many people have been left homeless and beaten because of this?!, do you?!
How dare you even question what I wrote,its scandalous and the full weight of the law needs crashing down on this vermin now!
You know its people like you that are also part of this problem,you and the bloody rioters.My mother is terrified because of this and so many other residents on my street!.
You are going straight onto my ignore list now.Good day!
