So you will admit that the best word to describe you is smug shit, being an asshole for absolutely no reason to JCC, the one guy who actually lives where this happened?

I'll admit to being a bastard about it sure.
Can you admit that I was right about the meaning of Anarchy to a mob of unorganized people that have no real purpose other than to cause destruction and chaos?

That's not one of the definitions, though.
See?
It just means that the people have no ruler. Those people were definitely unorganized, though. I'll give them that.

True that is the meaning of anarchy as it applies to those that follow it as a political philosophy.
What I was talking about the was the london riots.
That can be seen as a form of anarchy (complete Disorder).

So you said something incredibly stupid... just to be a bastard?
Why do you NEVER have any good points?
Do you even know people?

Like I was the only one on here to say something stupid to another member.
At least I'm trying to make amends for what I said.
You see anyone trying to do that ?

Really, I don't think anyone's interested in making amends with you, dude.
Maybe... if you'd just apologize to well... EVERYONE for being such an ass ALL THE TIME and start employing a little bit of critical thinking and consider that you may not be as socially aware as you should be, we might be able to get somewhere.

You're doing fine, Deadman. I'm glad you're participating like a productive member and not stooping to insulting people again.
He made a thread in the general section saying that he wasn't going to troll anymore. I think he deserves the benefit of the doubt for now.

I've got just as much an axe to grind with members on here too you know.
At least I'm making an effort to try and get along.

The fact that some of these people are posting the ware they looted on eBay, actually saying that they got them whilst looting, proves that they are the idiots that deserve to be caught.
When I said to reduce their benefits, I didn't mean halve them. I meant take some of it and put it back into the community they helped destroy.
And I did not say evict them from their homes. I said that some people are saying that they should be evicted. Evicting them would just make them homeless or move them on, to be another authority's problem.
Maybe the rioters should have been marked during the riot, by police with some sort of "tagging dye" like they use on stolen bank notes. They woukd then be easily picked out of a crowd, could be questioned about their movements and things could be taken from there.

Yet they weren't caught. So if you want to talk about reducing benefits, you're talking about reducing benefits for all. Nice job.

What we saw was the tip of the iceberg. The inequitable distribution of wealth in the UK will lead to even more rioting when they try to enact further austerity cuts.
People are angry. Most people do not just get together and form political committees and protest. Most people just get mad and wait for a catalyst in the community and use that as a reason to rampage. This is sociology 101 and the pattern has been repeated too many times to count since the days the Romans built their empire.
To dismiss it as random violence and not address the underlying causes or worse, enact draconian measures and strip people of their liberties on top of ignoring said causes ensures tensions will simmer below the surface and eventually boil over again on a much larger scale.

This is another good article that points out discrepancies with the current UK government...
http://blogs.telegraph.co.uk/news/pe...T7jn0.facebook
The issue which they, themselves seem to be ignoring is the fact over half of parliament have been caught out in the latest accounting crackdown cheating on their expenses. The MP's have scammed more money from the tax payers than the rioters cost the UK, yet that little factoid seems to be omitted from the media.
The bankers cost the tax payers a hundred times as much, the government themselves have been stealing for years, now a known fact, and they have cost the people more than the riots as well, yet now there is a huge push for draconian measures to stop rioters and not one piece of legislation put in place to stop the bankers or politicians from engaging in the same practices they were involved in before.
