London Bridge Is Burning Down

The madness of the discontented and lazy London youth living on the dole continues.  For three days they have looted, burned, and murdered.  It's frightful and wrong.  I really hope that the mayor or the PM will ratchet up the ROE so the hooligans are stopped and hopefully jailed and fined - and it sounds like that's the plan.  Some citizens want to go further and are demanding that those who participated who are on government assistance lose their benefits - a real let-the-punishment-fit-the-crime smack-down.  I like it!

What are these rioters thinking?  Are they using their brains at all?  A deeper question is: how can such a thing be possible in the heart of the United Kingdom?  Last night, I read an excellent and scathing article that attempts to find the causes for this despicable turn of events.  It was a sober, yet illuminating read - I recommend it.

I say, "Good Luck!" to the London authorities and all the poor folks whose property has been destroyed or stolen.  And I'll be praying for those who have lost loved ones to this pointless and wicked anarchy.
