For instance, there has been nothing in the news about Thursdays shooting (although im in Wales and maybe the shooting only made it to the local Tottenham press) which would make headlines unless it is being swept under the carpet.
Similar to the Bristol riots two months ago, about a new supermarket opening which had minor coverage.
Why would this happen? ...maybe because the killing of a 28 year old man was not, and can not be justified by the police.

Also the media seem to be saying this guy was a gangster.... I'll wait and see what actually comes out about it.
Even if he did shoot and police and he did so out of aggression (which I don't believe) is shooting him in the face with a sub-machine gun acceptable?
They have offered no reason as to why Mark Duggan was shot??
This is WHY the protests occurred.
This man was shot on Thursday.... and NOBODY knows why?
There are reports that the guy was shot while laying on the floor....
The point is we don't know so just parroting that he was a violent gangster who was shooting at the police, just because the Nazi Mail says so, is ignorant and stupid.

Gangsta number #1 MARK DUGGAN was killed by SO19, a tactical firearm unit the Police use mainly for TERRORIST operations, such was the danger of Mark Duggan.
You cant say that someone was dangerous just because of the police unit that was used, look at Jean Charles de Menezes. By your argument he also must have been a very dangerous person.edit on 7/8/11 by HumanPLC because: (no reason given)

Sorry to rattle your oppressed cage so much...
Maybe you should read ATS's T&C's regarding the use of bad language and attitude towards other members (myself) as you clearly can't be bothered to read anything else, especially regarding the shooting of Gangsta number #1 Mark Duggan.

People must have forgot about Jean Charles de Menezes. The police didn't cover their arses there, did they.
Not to say this guy who was shot was innocent. Maybe he wasn't, but I'd like to see the facts first.
From the text message he sent to his girlfriend he didn't sound like he was about to shoot at the police

3) Had a white person been shot by Police, would we be now looking at mass rioting?

It's yet to be confirmed, but a gun was found at the scene and a bullet was lodged in a cops radio.
I understand it's wrong to speculate, but it doesn't sound like a case for Sherlock Holmes...

I have a feeling we are descending into civil war, and it will not be a war of clear sides, but everyone for themselves. Gangs vs other gangs, muslims vs the rest of us, neighbours vs neighbours. Society is barely functional, especially in the cities, with law and order (relatively) intact. When that barrier is broken, all hell will literally break loose. The UK is full of animals.

Yes. There's plenty of communities in the UK that would see the same reaction were the local community to believe a local had been murdered without justification by the Police.
Police stations are attacked up and down the country quite frequently, without much cause.
Plenty of riots last year in Greece when the police shot someone

To me there is an almost tangible air of disgust, unrest and rebellion brewing in the UK. Though the people are supplied with plenty of bread, circus and carefully designed propaganda they are not ignorant of the real effects of the collusion between the government and bankers in terms of the recession and the austerity measures we, the people of the UK, are facing in order to fund the bailout of bankers who appear to be getting away with the biggest bank robbery in British history - somewhere around the 1,000 billion sterling mark.
The unwritten agreement of immunity granted by successive governments to their predecessors must end. To this effect; Tony Blair must stand trial in a European court of law (where there may be less opportunity to dictate the outcome). Bankers must be held to account and prosecuted accordingly. Britain must be governed in the interests of the people as opposed to the interests of the collusion between politicians and bankers. This is a start.

Interestingly it was exactly the same "type" of gangs unvolved in Greece as well as here in Tottenham and for exactly the same reasons, they love and thrive on chaos.

Ah, so communities with only white people have no violence or gangs! That explains Scotland and half of Eastern Europe
