You can get a blackberry for a ridiculous deal from major service providers on even more ridiculous contracts. most of these scumbags are probably paying £5 a month for something like an 18 month contract. plus a free blackberry.

Anyway, what's happening in the UK isn't a protest, it's just opportunistic violence and/or looting. True protests don't include trashing of other people's goods or stealing them, as they are their own people.
I laugh at anonymous neg-reppers who misread my posts.

Not according to what I hear the "protesters" are saying.
As Embee has stated, the problems we've got in the U.K. aren't your typical ones. The protests in Libya, Greece, Egypt (ect) had substance and reason behind them. These riots in England are just that; riots. It's an excuse for the troublesome youth (and some) to go out on the street and cause trouble.
British law is too soft (I think) and people are making use of that.
If you can see some political agenda behind that, please do tell. Enquiring minds want to know.

The punishments available to the courts are too soft, and evidently when arresting someone takes >3 hours to do the paperwork then it's severely effecting the ability of the police to stay out on the street.
I think in the long term this has actually done us as a nation a great deal of good. If they didn't riot then the problem would have just lurked in the background mostly ignored by the mainstream politicians.
I think there is now substantial and pretty widespread public support for taking decisive action to deal with the problem, and woe betide any politician who attempts to pretend the issue does not exist.

Al-Qaida says they're fighting for the Palestinians. Does that mean it's true? "Protestors" who claim they're fighting for their rights, by destroying things, aren't protesting. They're... guess what? Rioting.

Anything that doesn't suit Red_Fist seems to be painted with socialism all over.
