Hangover 2 riot scene

iEatClams 08-11-2011 04:56 PM

one of the worst and most watched video of the riot.

Student gets beaten up by mob, then robbed by people purporting to help him has become the signature image of the London riots.



stuff like this piss me off.

FROM WASHINGTON POST

England caught fire during that other royal-wedding year, 1981. But 30 years ago, the battle lines were relatively clear. Race was central, especially in the predominantly black south London neighborhood of Brixton. The target then was a police force charged with racial bias. But the recent explosions have had none of that clarity
seems to be race related the 81 riots

I was reading this article last ahah only reason why I could answer this :)....however this is the opinion column so take it with a grain of salt

Wow. should be fun. The company will be sending me out to London for work on the 19th.

I am still wanting to see an official report if the Duggan was carrying a gun and if it was flagrantly exposed to the police. If he did, yes it's shoot to kill. It may be wrong, but don't give trigger happy police officers the opportunity to shoot you.

this happened a couple days ago and its supposedly being investigated

shows a riot team rush to an intersection and tackle some cyclists it looks like they were targeting them (as there are a few walking on the street that were ignored and one questioned and let go) but the "why" isn't clear which is a hot topic atm

^ I'm sure some other idiot posted the same thing on a telephone pole during World War 1, and again in World War 2.

I think it's because 2012 is supposed to be the end of the world...

So it's more 'relevant' now?

Imagine what the crowd would do to poor kate if they got ahold of her lol. Bet she's wearing a chastity belt when she goes out.
