The UK is a joke. They're also working on frangible beer mugs so people can't use glass mugs as weapons. I don't think they've got a program for turning in rocks and clubs yet though. Yet. "rlol"

Here is a little glimmer of hope:

I feel bad for the homeowners who were held (and questioned?) for 40 hours before being released. Still, given the UK, they could have been thrown in jail I imagine for shooting the BGs.

The media there is a worse joke than our own and it seems their ideology centers around the Doctor Who or Touchwood tv series . You certainly may correct me if I'm wrong but the political/social conditioning is totally unbelievable . Sickening !

Not much of a glimmer, seeing as they were held for 66 hours by police (follow up article), in fear for their lives, and felt they had to flee the country (though I don't really see how they'll be much better off in Australia).
