Agree actually. (whats with this.. i've agreed with LT earlier this week now you)

Robbing stores is in no way part of a protest - simply yobs using the riots as an excuse to commit crimes.

It was definitely happening before that iirc, more cities were being affected but Birmingham and London (obviously) seemed to have had it the worst
