OMG the tabloids managed to take some poor people on a highstreet shopping spree and take a nice picture? MELT MY HEART. Cause we all know the tabloids don't manipulate things at all... We all know how noble and truthful the tabloids are...

You don't think that photo looks staged?

I'm not 100% behind throwing people out of their council house for rioting; there are many things to take into account. However... heaven forfend that these people should have to crash with someone until they find work and rent a place in the private sector like tax-paying, law-abiding members of society. No... they have a council house for life and free money, regardless of their actions.

As for asking if a sad-faced woman and a cute little girl should be kicked out onto the street, I have to ask why that threat is there. If that woman is the mother of a looter, she is reponsible for her child's actions until the age of majority. It is her responsibility as a parent to know what her kid's up to. She had the kid, and with it came responsibilty. How many people have no home to go to because it's been burned to the ground by looters? Why aren't we all having a sob-fest for them? How about the working people who have no job to go to now because looters burned or otherwise wrecked their place of work?

There are people, who have been discharged from the army and for one reason or another have ended up living on the street. There are kids living on the street who have fled abuse. Can't see anyone having worrying about them, and yet they are surely more deserving of sympathy and a roof over their head than someone who had no respect for themselves, the police, society... anything.
