    I am so elated and proud that there is NO SINGLE FILIPINO involved in the chaos. Strongly believed being in a closed- knit family ties, God-fearing human beings, value positively our dignity and maintained our professionalism made us more dignified human beings...
    Yobs who were causing this anarchy should be punished rightfully. If they're old enough to cause the crime then they should deserve long term jail sentences... They're scum, thieves and cancer to the society....

    Chrissar, these people in the UK are being identified and prosectuted and will be deservidly punished for being scum.
    Until the full demographics of the rioters and looters are known, I couldn't comment on the family situation with any of them.
    Regarding god-fearing, not being religious myself, like the majority of British, I don't think a fear of punishment for ones sins in the afterlife is enough for most people today. What is needed is respect for law and order and a fear of the punishments one can receibve in this lifetime!
    But please do not make a general statement that Filipinos are more dignified than British, or anyone else. We are talking about a very small minority of idiot scumbags in a few cities. The vast majority respect the law, their neighbours, family and themselves.
    If we want to make generalised statements, I could say that similar to my experiences in China, business in the Philippines is so corrupt that it would make a wh*re house blush!
    I COULD say that,....but I won't. :wink:

    Back to the original topic though, I do feel some big changes are coming to our world.
    The general public are fed up with the way the bankers and politicians have messed up our lives in the last 10 years(at least), and I think either they have to change they way they are running things, or large scale social unrest is going to become widespread!

    The politicians and bankers are the direct result of an ever increasing "godless" society.
    One where people make their own rules, and could care less how it effects anyone else.

    How True!

    :wink: In the UK, we have a saying, "An Englishman's home. IS, his castle" I will protect, This is what these Idiots, are taking away from us, or at least, trying to.
    The Politicians and Bankers (they are in each others Pockets) have no need to worry, It is once again, us little people who suffer. No Wonder there is Anarchy afoot. We have seen it before, we will see it again, Each time it gets worse. No Wonder, I am not there, to see the aftermath. For once, it is better the devil you Don't know.

    Live from England. At least these idiots are now being delt with. Of the four dead victims 3 run down by a car and one poor soul trying to put out a fire, Arrests have been made for most of those responsible and to jail they will go however comfortable some may think that is in the UK ?

    BBC News - England riots: What happened to the rioters in court?

    Take care all.

    " Everybody deserves a second chance" David Cameron PM refering to Andy Coulson
    ( News of the World employee involved in the hacking scandel)
    but a 11 yr old kid "loots" a bottle of water and should be punished!
    I don't agree with the rioters and they deserve whatever they get, but Dear old England is a land of double standards, and the rich get richer at the cost to the poor.
    Gas and electric prices to rise 15% now that's what I call robbery....JB

    Absolutely spot on video Manz. We (society) have created the mess in Britain, and beyond.
    We haven't seen nothin' yet.

    Hi Manzanita. I watched most of that Video but he is generalizing to much about the doom to come and all those terrible Children we and our systems have produced. I think 19% of those that have been arrested were children 19% of the 1200 that have been captured so far. Even if that 1200 is only 10% of the trouble makers that makes roughly only 0.02% of the UK population who participated in that Lawlessness Mostly Adults and some Children. Most of the other 99.08 % are Decent, Ambitious, Caring, Hopefull, Positive, Honest, kind and Generous off course not perfect Humans.
    Let's hope that small percentage of troubled or Evil or Tainted souls ( All society's have them ) see the light and do not negatize us all into thinking we/they are doomed. :eek:
