Riots In The UK

The riots in the UK have been spreading and the images in the news have been depressing. There have been people burning buildings, people robbing injured people, and people looting. I know I'm not the only one to think these people are utter scum.

I'm shocked that we live in a country that has so many idiots. And they are idiots, I can prove it. One of the reports I read, in the Salford Star, said how people had been looting a branch of Lidl. Lidl! Why? You could spend all day in there and still only leave with £3's worth of goods.

On BBC news they spoke to a caller who witnessed people trying to loot an Argos. Idiots! Just go home and rip the pictures out of the catalogue.

But we didn't need evidence like that to see that these people aren't that bright. Who goes round smashing up the area you live in? It might seem like a good idea at first but then you realise you're the one who will have to live with the consequences. It's like breaking wind in the bath.

Also in Salford The Money Shop was looted. But people just wanted their stuff back before someone nicked it, I guess.

There's talk of bringing in the water cannons. I think that would be a great idea. The water cannons would stop the rioting and here's the proof. There has been no rioting in Edinburgh this week and the streets here have been soaking wet every day. So, you work it out.

Yes, it is something of a uniquely English shame. There have been no riots in Scotland or Wales. So what does that tell you? It tells you that free prescriptions can really calm people down.
