I don't know how much coverage it has had abroad but London's had rioting and looting the over the last two nights in some areas of the city. All very ugly and it is looking like no one is going to come out of this looking good.
Blaming blacks and foreigners for it all. Then somebody linked a video of a couple of white kids lighting a Miss Selfridges on fire. Today he's blaming leftist students for it all.

Given what has been reported

So, did the original suspect have a gun/fire bullets?

Had a gun, didn't fire
09/08/2011 06:51:54 PM

Not actually true

Seems it isn't exactly but I'm not sure your reply is 100% true either
09/08/2011 07:27:00 PM

There's no evidence he didn't fire? Imagine that.
09/08/2011 11:22:05 PM

He's saying the evidence available is inconclusive either way.

Fair enough.

There are various proofs

True, but if tests are inconclusive rather than merely incomplete those proofs may not be available.

I do see why it matters if he fired or not

Again, I don't know the British standard, so I can only guess how it works.

So the death penalty is a deterrent for the crimes it doesn't apply to, but not for those it does?

When most of the looters are kids I can see how that would be problematic.
