Shooting minors is not a valid response to damage of material goods. Helping our countrymen is. People aren't going to mind paying taxes and helping clean up the streets for this mess because we are better people than the rioters, and rue the day that the public ever become worse than those they're fighting against. You call it cowardliness and I call it having morals. Shooting people is not going to solve anything in the UK, regardless of what it does in the US.

Connorrr is quite right. Battra it's not cowardly when we're trying to prevent kids from dying. Some of them are stupid and misguided but killing under 18 year olds is not going to solve anything. Human life is valuable esp if they're young and misguided. You can change them. We are bonding and sorting stuff out. I'd rather sort stuff out and pay for it rather than guns in the hands of undesirables. You know what shopowners and criminals having guns would've led to more de...

deaths. We do not want martyrs. Right now we can have businesses back, communities back and a spirit of bonding and recovery. Lives lost cannot be replaced. And in the heat of the moment anything could happen. During riots people aren't likely to think sensibly. Arming them is like adding fuel to the fire.
