Mrs.Dinnegan told us she she made the call before they got to my estate. You can give all the jargon you want for some one that experienced it I can tell you that is how it happened whether you choose to believe it or not isn't my concern. Not like you believing will bring my boy back
UK Riots (with the exception of Manchester which has its own thread)

In all fairness calls were made to the police before they got to my estate, they shouldn't have made it from where they linked up to my estate.
CLK were these people targeted specifically?
Sorry if it comes across as insensitive but you didn't experience it, you're just going on what you've been told.
You're ok with pointing the finger at the cops but you dont even know the time frames involved.
Maybe they could've been quicker, at the same time did the 20 masked men just stroll away without anyone seeing where they went? Have witnesses come forward?
That's all a bit mad. Expect more and more social unrest as the recession really starts to bite (cue TBGB to wade in and point out that the Uk isn't in recession and his mate David has it all in hand)
Tell the family of Jean Charles de Menezes that!
WTF as PC World got to do with the shooting of Mark Duggan ,some saw it as an opportunity for some early christmas shopping.There is also an eye witness that said that they burnt down the job center ffs.
what annoys me is that these people with so much resentment to the police are the same idiots who set the cars on fire and then call up later on pleading for help, can't have it both ways you either want to work with the police and help them or work against them
nail on head, people clearly don't realise just how busy and how cuts affect the emergency services, as horrible as it is when the government makes cuts we can't magic resources out of nowhere, so the resources come depleted but the demand does not go down. you can't work miracles
i don't mean to sound like a prick, horrible as it is and i feel sorry for his loss but how have you experienced it? from what i have gathered so far you are just going off what someone else has said
this, happy to take someones word and automatically point the finger at the police without knowing the full details, it's just as frustrating for police working to try and stop this kind of thing, do you really think they don't want to respond as soon as possible? but like i said before you can't magic resources that you don't have and the public pay the price of the cuts
on another note though tottenham is a just a bit rough no? more tax payers money flushed down the shitter clearing that mess up
The obvious thing to do when you feel you are being incorrectly treated like that is to attack the police, set stuff on fire and generally cause shitloads of damage. fecking idiots.
Just reading about the original incident involving Mr Duggan.
He shoots at a cop and then is killed, yet people have spun in that the Police held him down and shot him. Dear me. Why is there a cop in hospital with gunshot wounds, and a Police radio with a bullet lodged into it?
Some people really are thick. Any excuse.

Probably should wait until the investigation before we claim to know what happened.
Why did the police need to kill the man anyway? Surely they could have shot him in a place which would neutralise him as a threat but not kill him?
feck sake Elvis this isn't an episode of 22 or whatever you call it, there is no Jack Hauer in real life.
If you're not shooting to kill, you don't shoot.
That being the guy who was shot at range?
What if you're shooting to hurt?
Jack Bauer often shot people to just injure, or torture, them.
I can see the people cheering as it went up in flames, only to suddenly realise they wont have anywhere to sign on in the morning, and i remember from personal experience, they will use any reason to shut down your claim, so the whole "theres no fecking job center" aint going to work.
No, the one who was captured and had seven hollow-point bullets fired into his head on a London Underground train.
By Metropolitan Police Officers in July 2005.
I guess you're being sarky, but I suppose you could start with:
Death of Jean Charles de Menezes - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Anybody who gets involved in riots, threatening bystanders, deserve nothing but a place in a cell, people need to remember the meaning of stoicism.
Any excuse for unfounded partisan attacks obviously.
WTF has this to do with last night and the shooting of the man.
Apparently it's spread to Wood Green and is spreading towards Enfield too...
Isnt it finish?
So lets say we play your scenario out then:
Suspect fires a round toward police. They respond by shooting him in the shoulder and leg but his finger is still on the trigger. He falls and has he hits the ground his gun discharges skyward killing a five year old child 600 feet away.
Bottom line is you shoot at the kill zone, and it wouldn't just be one police officer it would probably be three or four simultaneously.
yep, they are also expecting it to kick off again in tottenham tonight. i have had texts from work pleading for people to go in on overtime, no way in hell will i be going in there tonight
What if the child was Adolf Hitler, wouldn't that be a good thing?
The bullet would probably have removed his left testicle.
Lot of crap being talked about Tottenham and Haringey in this thread
There's hardly any bit of Tottenham I haven't walked through at night, including Broadwater Farm, loads of times. There are parts that can get a bit rough like in most areas of London, but as long as you're not in a gang you're usually alright.
A lot of Haringey's completely gentrified.

I live about 10 minutes away from where it happened last night and now apparently they're doing it over my local town. They robbed the Subway of all places, set fire to the McDonalds and T-Mobile shops and robbed TK Maxx. Basically robbed the worst places.
Some guys I was speaking to was saying that it all kicked off when some people wanted to lay flowers and other memorial stuff where the incident took place, but the police wasn't allowing it and what not. Probably bs...
They probably weren't allowing it as I would imagine it is a crime scene at the moment
Serious incident in Enfield apparently.
Care to elaborate mate?
Rioting in Enfield or a grop of hooded scarfed thugs just vandalising?
That's all on the Sky News ticker about 30 mins ago. Don't know anything else.
I hope Gazza is on his way.
I live there.
There are riot police lined up by the station and hooded blokes everywhere basically.
