We have them all the time here, usually after sporting events or floods (looting). It's just that America is so vast, they always seem rather spread out over space and time. Won't help your tourism too much.

"Burning, looting, raping and shooting.
Burning, looting, raping and shooting.
Burning, looting, raping and shooting.
'Cos I'm a warrior of Genghis Khan,"It is sadly now so real.

We've already got the recession, rocketing unemployment – and to all intents and purposes - a Conservative government in place. Give it a couple of months, and it'll all be back to The Thompson Twins, Howard Jones, shoulder pads and Yuppies again.

Still trying to get my head around why shit is happening - I know that a lot of people round here do really hate the police and do really like new trainers... but that's sort of always been the case.Anyway - cheers rikkor - maybe we can re-brand our dear capital?
"Visit London, the hotels might be fucking pricey, but the shopping's a steal"
"Bored of Detroit? why not visit London."
