You'd think the courts would sell papers with ready cut slit holes in them, wouldn't you.

He would not know the school of hard knocks.

Interesting comment from Salford - BBC

Quote:

1733: Officers from Salford City Council and its housing provider, Salix Homes, are reviewing CCTV images to see if they can help identify any of the offenders, with threats to evict tenants if they are found to have been involved. Council leader John Merry says people needed to understand their actions had consequences and "anyone who can do this to their own city is not welcome in Salford".

1708: Here's the exchange between Mr Howe - a writer and presenter - and Ms Armstrong:
Armstrong: "You are not a stranger to riots yourself I understand, are you? You have taken part in them yourself."
Howe: "I have never taken part in a single riot. I've been part of demonstrations that ended up in a conflict. Stop accusing me of being a rioter and have some respect for an old West Indian Negro, because you wanted for me to get abusive. You just sound idiotic - have some respect."

It could all start again after comments like this?

Quote:

1715: BBC political reporter Ed Lowther reports that the first e-petition to pass 100,000 threshold looks set to be one calling for rioters to lose benefits: it's at 78,000 signatures and needs to get past 100,000 for the backbench business committee of MPs to discuss whether or not to call a Commons debate on it.

About time something was done about it as most have said?

Boris gets it in the ear?

Guys, I'd like to remind you that we do not allow discussion of how to commit illegal acts on this site. Some of the posts on the posts in this thread are suggesting actions that may be illegal. While this is an emotive subject, please ensure you follow the rules.

Any rule breaking will be acted on.

Sparkle · 10-08-2011, 16:54

In all fairness to Mr. Howe, the interviewer did seem to try to put words in his mouth. I'm not shocked by the recent events, but that hardly means I condone them. A big difference.

What have I said or done

If I have said anything out of turn I apologise. But it was innocent.

Watercannon icecube carnage is no laughing matter mate.

And in the current climate, such loose talk has the potential to get you nicked for incitement. Best leave talk of how to cause mayhem to the brain donors who we all want to see locked up.

OK but I was on about the police using them

Sorry for the confusion

devilincarnate, it wasn't that. Stuart has kindly replied to my pm and that this was a generic warning about illegal acts - not related to the icecube/capsicum watercannon discussion.
