The inability of Her Majesty's police to curb the riots indicates that it is not just that India is a soft state, at least Great (?) Britain is a soft state too. Indians can draw some consolation from this. Like in India, a section of British left-liberal intelligentsia (the entire media naturally comes under it) is sympathizing with the rioters. They are being portrayed as victims of a poor Income Distribution System. The way these riots have spread, it is quite clear that it is a case of organised crime: The rioters had been preparing for it for quite some time, and the incident at Tottenham somehow acted as a trigger. Nobody is mentioning it, but the M word is omnipresent in everyone's head and heart, for it is a community that specialises in organised looting and arson. Similar events occurred in 2005 in Paris. The events were attributed to 'youth', but nobody mentioned that they belonged to one community. The organisers of these incidents are taking this as a Test case, and if the British Government does not identify them and punish them ruthlessly, we may see similar riots break in other European countries, or even in Canada and USA, for inequality rules everywhere.

Why you crazy guys want to compare india with all incidents in any part of world, Punjabis are stupid and greedy breed in the earth.
Mozzies are basically savages who create trouble wherever they go. They are unfit to live in any civilized society. This is the shape of things to come in India, where we are seeing hordes of Bangladeshis sneaking into the country. Wake up my countrymen before it is tool late!
