They'll want a fight though, it'll just fire them up even more. They'll get bored eventually if you just leave them to it.

It's not the apocalypse. Not even close. You'll probably be okay. 'They' aren't coming for you.

Thats a very patronising post considering most of the rioters are 14 to 15 year olds.

Why couldn't this have been posted in the riot thread that's been getting used for days instead of creating another thread?

I believe if any rioters go for you get a weapon out to fight back,as afterall if they can do what they want to then why cant we?

Because there the Rioters not us

Well jf I personally don't believe violence solves anything. I do however, watching the way these situations have happened feel that with it spreading Nationwide almost that if the Govt and police don't get a hold of things then I think people may decide they need to protect their cities and families.

You raised some valid points and I also don't just think this has only to do with the shooting of one man now, there is more behind this and sadly I don't think the last has been seen of such events.

As to the answers, I don't know for sure what will work,you have presented one way that people may decide to take on it,I just hope that would not be necessary and that the Govt, Police and more to the point the Judges really get their act together, protect the cities and people and really punish all responsible that are caught very heavily indeed.

Good thread and a good addition to the debate jf.It's really good to see really young people do care for their cities, families and don't all go along with the crowd.
