    They should call in Homer with the snow plow:

    "Mr. Plow, that's my name. That name again, is Mr. Plow".

    He'd clear the scum off the streets in no time :D

    I know there is probably meaning in what Sky news is saying but how exactly do you raise a public building to the ground by fire?
    Did the fire push it up out of the basement?

    (There probably is a proper explanation but it just sounds weird every time they say it)

    Raze to the ground.


    No; hold it dahn!!

    In Greece recently there was rioting in the streets, damage done, and it wasn't just the lower class or "scumbags" who were doing it, it was the middle class and ordinary folk who had had enough of their government and their banks, nobody got hurt, and frankly I wish the people of Ireland had the courage to do the same sometimes.

    Now maybe these people doing it aren't the brightest or don't have the most organized approach to this, but it shows a widespread dissatisfaction in the lives of these people and they have found anarchy to be the best option.

    Many Irish people are flat, you need a bit of fire in you to revolt, I am talking about in a preacful but firm way.

    Everytime they interview decent middle class 20/30 somethings talking about marauding kids, My Chemical Romance's prescient "Teenagers" comes to mind.

    Aaaa... that explains it. I knew there was a decent reason. :)

    Every time (every 10 minutes) Sky says it, it sounds like "raise" instead of "raZe".
    They are pronounced the same. Its a bit of an oxymoron though, I'll grant you that

    Agreed.

    I also think the Irish Government wouldn't pussyfoot around with the scum and would give the Guards free reign to 'end the trouble the way you see fit'.

    We would have the likes of Richard Boyd-Barrett out on the streets giving us the sob stories of the rioters.

    I will repeat my post:

    1. Never, never, never, ever make a joke or hint about eugenics. Eugenics is a crime against humanity, it is a disgusting and vile action.

    2. There is nothing wrong with looting in desperate times. Who says who really "owns" anything? The government? If you really put all your faith in the government like that then you are a ridiculous fool.

    best troll i've seen all day

    Well It doesn't take a 'scumbag'. Anyone would riot if their caged was rattled enought. I noticed since the recession Dublin has got much angerier and there is a lot more tension than before.

    Back to school and learn how to spell and write.

    No reason for it to spread to Birmingham. Hell there's probably more Sky subscribers here than there.
