I also want to comment on how much better the BBC news is compared to ours. By now, we'd have 20 pundits talking about who's the blame, and giving their political views on the situation.
Only if you intentionally tuned in and watched them.

Seemed to work the first time this country formed. I am against the looting though. That's just common thuggery.
So which parts of riots in the USA are you advocating other than looting?
The burning of private buildings?
Attacking police?
Attacking people in another class?
Keep in mind you are referring to rioting....not a protest march.

We should probably be doing the same thing in DC.
See in the US we have elections every two years and you have the chance to vote out the people you do not like. You can even do like 12th and volunteer to help the people you support to get elected.

interesting article explaining the British voting structure. Far more different than ours than I had thought.
