Riots in London continue to increase in size, spreading to most of the city. There seems to be no particular reason, except they provide the UK’s permanent dole chav culture a chance to burn and smash things and loot shops.
Here’s an interactive map of the rioting.
What set it off was the death of black gang member Mark Duggan, who decided have a shoot-out after being stopped by the police while carrying a gun. (This being the UK, needless to say Mr. Duggan’s gun was illegal.)
I do not see any report of particular Jihadi involvement, though I would not be at all surprised to learn some joined in the opportunistic violence.
Here’s the Dead Kennedy’s “Riot,” for some old-school-punk perspective on the phenomena.
Stay safe, Londoners…
