It would seem unlikely that no one in each of those households wouldn't be able to find some type of work. Of course England is further along the socialist path than we are so who knows.
I don't think it has anything to do with socialism.
I think it has to do with the same problem (if you want to call it that) that teenagers have always had.... and that's rebellion.
These flash mobs are made up of teenagers. They're not activists. They are teenagers that have figured that they can organize, strike, and escape before traditional law enforcement can even respond. You mix that with with your standard mob mentality, and traditional teenage rebellion and this is what you get.
I mean... this happens with ADULTS.. .over HAPPY news... Remember the riots that broke out in November, 2010 in San Fransico after the Giants won the Worlds Series?
Teenage boys lack the maturity, patience, and overall mental and emotional development that most grown adult men have.
They're basically the "hoods" of the 60's but with today's technology. They're just punks. Out of how many days of rioting, and how many thousands there were, the death total was something like 5 people.
My 9mm holds 17 +1. If pulled that out in self defense and emptied the magazine... and if I "carried extra mags" as some have suggested, and actually used them... then the death toll could have easily tripled. By my actions alone. And I think that would be pretty difficult to defend in court.
And yeah, "IF" it was ruled a good shoot you might avoid jail time, but you wouldn't avoid multiple civil, wrongful death, suits from each of the families and/or innocent by standers. And even if you won each of those... you'd still be broke from your own defense attorney's fees.
That's how they got OJ, remember?
