I was in the thick of it last night...
In all honesty, apart from the effect on the economy, the hard working business people and the innocent people getting hurt, I'm kinda happy this is kicking off to show the government how much they have fucked the country to the point that no one gives a shit anymore.
The fact that someone there witnessing it in person can feel this way is enough for me to believe that the UK is headed for a full-on crackdown... REAL bullets may be used before this shit is over...! Scary shit.
If you allow guns in the UK then murder rate WILL go up, full stop. The only way you can't see this is if you have been conditioned that owning a gun is your right and is necessary to protect you and your family. If you haven't been conditioned to believe that you can see that it's completely ridiculous and a total fallacy.
Bullshit.
I'm a gun owner but I've lived in London.
The fact of the matter is that the WORLD needs its' citizens to own guns until the WORLD has solved the problem of lower classes existing.
As long as your society has its' dregs, there will always be seemingly infinite "bad guys" produced by poverty and lack of education. These people can't afford as many guns as the citizenry can, so it's ALWAYS to the citizen's advantage to allow guns in that society. The CITIZENS win in that scenario, but when you take the guns away from the citizens it's the BAD GUYS who win instead... No matter how hard you make it for them to get guns. (Because they always do so and can even make them.)
Northern Europe, being more educated in general than the rest of the world, has pretty much fooled itself into believing that their society has evolved enough to no longer need those barbaric guns.
The fact of the matter is though, that their society still has its' dregs. If not, then explain this riot.
First educate the REST of your society and then, maybe then a gunless citizenry will be right for your little island... But the only way to really do it right is to not allow anyone in when you enact that law... Because the rest of the entire planet will be like Dregs to you at that point.
The best idea is to force conscription on them if they are caught rioting/looting and you'll see some compliance. 24 hours in jail is not a deterrent for these scum bags, but a couple of years in Afghanistan on the front line certainly is.
OMG that sounds stupid... Let me get this straight; you want to take your uneducated lawbreakers and put guns in their hands and then force them to go into touchy situations as ambassadors for your country, representing you and your interests?
Smoke another one, bro. :rasta:
It was the Seagull that started this looting trend then... I see.
I stand corrected... It's not the dregs afterall, it's the gulls.
The UK needs to better educate its' avairian population to prevent rioting in the future!
