I am really ashamed to call myself British today after all that is currently happening here in my county. The rioting in london has and is spreading throughout the country to other major cities. These people are pathetic, they are rioting for the sake of it, they are looting anything from anywhere and anyone, setting fire to buildings not caring if people could get hurt, fighting and hurting innocent people all for the fun of it. They are all just mindless criminals scaring innocent people and need to be stopped
I rarely rant about this sort of thing, especially on DA but i do not want people worldwide thinking us Brits are all like this. We have a bad enough reputation as it is thanks to football hooligans, they too are pathetic.
All this started after a peaceful demonstration over the death of a young man shot dead by police turned violent.
We on the whole are not hooligans. We are not small minded snobs who live in mansions and drink tea and scones all day in our giant gardens, We leave all that rubbish to the royal family who most everyday normal hard working folk do not worship or care much for these days unless over the age of 80. Also we definitely do not all talk posh like most movies would lead you to believe. We, like many countries have many regional accents and half the time can not understand each other because of it but is great fun trying. The majority of us are just kind, caring and respectful people who just want to get on with our own lives, want to be safe and want to keep our families safe from idiots like these rioters.
