Its seems news services throughout are completely plastic and stilted into clear demarkations. On either side of this news-ertainment line comes:
1) Morons looting shops, no responsibility. Bad People.
2) Victims of class discrimination whom are the real victims. Forced to turn to violence for their voice to be heard (oh and a free hi fi or television set along the way).
As an outsider I am intrigued by such homogenous responses in either direction. So what is it really about? What incites people to do these things? How bad do things need to be for them to resort to this - or is that just the answer? - are things not as bad as those justifying rioting maintain?
I must say history demonstrates that over the last 40 years or so, the Brits have shown themselves as a nation that they do like to put on a good riot or two, although many of those were racially charged issues.
I would love to be educated rather than just reading second hand murdoch style news (touch wood Rupert and his sons haven't board this website too
Please let me understand rather than forming opinions on ill researched inaccurate news services.
