That's very true, however, no offence but it's kind of expected to see that kind of thing in middle eastern countries. This seems more shocking since it's happening in the UK (granted I haven't actually been paying attention to what's going on in Syria).

I've just heard there are already fires in Manchester tonight, and police are already deploying armoured vehicles.

Yup.

From the BBC's website -
"1911: Rioters have set fire to a Miss Selfridge shop on Market Street in Manchester city centre."

Apparently it's a huge fire.

Really? This is getting out of hand fast. I wouldn't be surprised if they start using riot vehicles or tear gas or something at this rate.


You make it sound as if using tear gas to break up the riot is a bad thing. They should start using whatever means are necessary to stop this from spreading... and also to make sure people think twice of doing it again (and to prevent others from doing something like it)

I didn't say it was a bad thing. In fact, it's probably the only way to stop this continuing. It's been happening for like three nights now.

Apparantly they're looting a shopping centre now.

Unfortunately Searz, the British chav is far too stupid to be stopped with mere rubber/beanbag bullets; he'll just get cross and charge at you like a wounded animal.
