One of the men killed was 21. His father spoke so eloquently on TV News today about his son. Sad.
3 Killed

Just seen this
http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-england-manchester-14478498
Quote Rioters in Manchester and Salford have been told that they face being evicted from their council homes if they are identified on CCTV footage.
Both city councils have issued warnings that if any of their tenants or their children have been involved in violence or looting they will be "thrown out".
I'm not so sure it is the solution.

I wonder how long it will be before we hear from some of the usual suspects of the PC brigade complaining about Police brutality

Quote It's the only response these vandals understand. I hope other forces apply similar methods to deal with them.
I Concur! Its about time that...
Quote PC brigade complaining about Police brutality
^^ these idiots started living in the real world. When watching that video i was more concerned about the copper that gets hit by the guy on the bike (he slides off up to the top left) than any of the idiots on bikes.
Police more power? yes, Police more willing to use force? yes - less paperwork when they do to please!!

For that reason in part, I'd like to see them use knockout gas, all the vandals fall to the floor, the next thing they wake up either in a jail or with a fixed penalty notice pinned to somehwere it would hurt.

Quote from: AlaricAdair They do exist, but are risky in application ...
It does read as if they may have been a little excessive in the amount of gas they used.
Maybe laughing gas could be used instead, that would immobilise most people too.

Strikes me that a few will be out of work like a teaching assistant and a postman.
Be interesting to see what penalties the Crown Courts hand down.

Not really. You either want someone unconscious or you don't. If you do you gotta do what they do in surgery - secure the tongue so they don't choke on it otherwise you're gonna have dead people on your hands and one hell of an investigation.

Quote from: nadger Just been looking at BBC London where there are details of some of the looters arrested.
Manchester police have decided to publically post convinctions.

I hope not, won't it encourage revenge
