Anarchy in the UK

In what is a preview of things to come, Britain is burning with rioting breaking out in several large cities including London, Birmingham and Liverpool. Police have been slow to respond and mass destruction is occurring. All of this started when a policeman shot a civilian under questionable circumstances. Cops defended their position until it was revealed that the shot supposedly fired by the suspect came from a police gun. Things turned ugly as the beaten down public said enough is enough.

This is what anarchy looks like. These groups of, lets face it, thugs are not a political party interested in talking about the issues. They want destruction; to take the whole of society down because of the rampant inequality forced upon them. When people ask why this is happening, it is indeed their fault. Britain is the most totalitarian of the Western region, their police have been beating civilians without cause for years, the economy is worse than here and upward mobility has all but stopped for all but a privileged few. Tack on a high unemployment rate, crippling taxes and a steady diet of TV saturating the minds with advertising and reality shows and you have a perfect storm of a riot waiting to happen.

This is a rapidly spreading world wide phenomena that has happened in Egypt, Tunisia, Spain, Greece and London. How long before it happens here? Read the above and see if it doesn't describe America to a tee. An increasingly hostile police force, a rising inequality between the rich and poor, and mob violence. If you haven't heard about the mob violence our TV news seems to be NOT reporting about any of it. Philly Mayor David Nutter has instituted a curfew on weekends for anyone under 18 to try to stop the wave of gang violence sweeping through the tourist areas. Or the mob of black youths in Wisconsin pulling people out of cars and beating them. Think if the tables were turned and white people were attacking solely minorities. It would be the top story. Why this reverse racism is not being exposed makes me think somebody is pulling the strings to try to make things not as bad as they seem. Because of the high black teen unemployment rate, these kind of things are only going to increase in intensity until somebody gets killed and then who knows where the mob anger may lead.

Riots are coming. We must be prepared.
