    Unfortunately the British people have allowed their gun rights to be stripped from them and now they are defenseless. When seconds count the cops are there in minutes.

    I watch the debate. Cameron got an easy ride and parliament was united in condemnation of the anti-social behaviour.

    It is interesting to watch the reports of the criminals already being prosecuted in the courts. Not many unemployed or socially deprived in the mix. Which only goes to show this has nothing to do with the current economic climate and everything to do with the sense of entitlement created by a consumer society. They are used to having too much too easily.

    or the 11 year old girl has has been ordered to say sorry,
    3 I think have been sent to prison
    a few have been refered to crown court,
    many others fined, but details are slow to come forward,

    but he did state we have the tools if we need them,
    perhaps this is why the british police are the best,
    yes i know they make mistakes, but compared with some other counties,
    that send out the military-water cannon-bullets-battons-rods,
    i supose in a way, the rioters are lucky they were not used,
    but then again ??
