We use the law and prosecute ,we don't shoot people unless of course they have guns and use them.Then we leave it to the armed police.Once we use troops to keep order we are no longer a democracy.

Anyway I think we are a long way from total anarchy.Most of the UK's citizens are at home tonight feeling disgusted at the minority copy cats rioters.I should think most are online at the moment or watching TV.
