I was wondering if the personal attack got edited out or something.
There wasn't one in the post that appeared in, but there was in an earlier post, but I fixed it right away.

[quote]Did it ever occur to you that there are PEOPLE in those buildings? That's exactly what happened at a recent G8 (or G20) riot, where anarchists with gasoline bombs murdered a bank teller by burning her to death. Did it ever occur to you that fires SPREAD to other occupied structures and can create firestorms, particularly when rioters prevent the fire department from suppressing the fires? Fuck the rioters, if they are holding a gasoline bomb, they need to be instantly dead by sniper round to the head. I volunteer to go over there and personally shoot anyone holding a gasoline bomb myself if the Brits haven't got the balls. Call out the fucking army with machine guns. But do something besides stand there with your thumb up your ass letting murderers and arsonists get away with it.[/quote


Real guts is facing a riot unarmed or armed and not firing. Any fool can shoot a a teenager with a petrol bomb. Not aware of any situation in recent British history where anyone other the police or the rioters got hurt (well the police may have beaten up a few people they mistook for rioters)

I don't know what guts is, but any teenager with a petrol bomb deserves a bullet to the head.
A rational skeptic should be able to discuss and debate anything, no matter how much they may personally disagree with that point of view. Discussing a subject is not agreeing with it, but understanding it.

Nah, that's just stupidity.

Evidently not the fools in the UK. People generally don't throw petrol bombs during riots in the US because they WILL get shot.

Evidently it escaped your notice that police have a right to life as well, and a right to go home uninjured and unburned at the end of their shift, and so they have a right to use deadly force in self-defense, and petrol bombs are absolutely justification for the use of deadly force.

Generally accepted that the chances of someone dying in full riot gear from a petrol bomb when surrounded by a lot of other policeman is pretty minimal, a policeman do get hurt but then they do get extra riot pay for this

You are correct that the comment was placed in the wrong post. But since you have removed the attack, it doesn't really matter which post it is in now. The attack was reported first though, and seen by several people before it was removed. And it is still under discussion.

Police wear full riot gear for a reason. And that reason is not to allow potential targets to lob petrol bombs at them.
I think the UK police missed a huge opportunity to legally kill several hundred rioters.

Do I get points for recanting? It was a heat-of-the-moment error based in the fact that I've been in riot gear facing armed rioters, and it's not at all fun, and I've been a firefighter too, and I've seen the results of arson on actual people. Not pretty.

Well the bastards have deprived so many people of their homes, shops are smashed up and Listed Buildings gone forever. I say Tottenham needs emptying of all these assholes, ship them off to a remote island, wholesale. Drop food to the animals, weekly, and never let them leave.
Fuck 'em and their bling and their innit blud and this pathetic faux-West-Indian talk style. Walking around with fucking guns and their trousers around their arse, fucking guns.. wt bloody fuck?!
Get the fuck out of London, you twats. :banghead:

Generally accepted by whom? You? Your opinion isn't worth the toilet paper I wiped my ass with this morning because you've never been there, done that. I have. And I never got "extra riot pay," and even if I had, it wouldn't have justified having to face rioters armed with gasoline bombs. You don't have a fucking clue what you're talking about, and it's spewing out your ass like you had dysentery. But what else is new?

That is actually correct, the best form of protection would be to shoot all rioters at a distance (like Seth says), however the police arent paid to maximise their own safety regardless of the cost (and you seriously think if the police started shooting at rioters they wouldnt shoot a few innocent bystanders) . Not aware of any British policeman that has ever been killed while on riot duty , there has been a policeman killed not in riot gear and caught on his own
When only criminals carry guns the police know exactly who to shoot!

No opinion involved, riot police are often injured but none have been killed in recent times. Even if a petrol bomb lands on your head your colleagues are going to put it out pronto.
Riot police facing riots tends to go with the job description, what next pay soldiers extra who get shot at?
