you know what, I find it frankly disturbing that in front of such massive police fails people still believe they can be protected by them. People love digging their heads in the sand here, hoping that it's never gonna happen to them.
I've heard conversation where some pride themselves with the fact that there is no need for brutal police force here..in a village in Devon though..
It's this obstinate attitude that causes what happened with the riots, if police is not a lethal threat, people will simply ignore them.
And yes, there's insurances and what not to repay the damage, but for some of the damage there's no compensation that will fill the void.
Do you really think that in the end, once this is over, the minority of people which will be charged with some offence will actually make things better? This lot had nothing to lose..
