The Dust Settles...?
10 Dec 2010 17:17I'm still in mid-seethe about these sodding students. No matter what they say about the police, the way events unfolded last night was all THEIR fault. Sorry if that offends anyone - no, actually, I'm NOT sorry. In fact, I have absolutely no sympathy left - the RIOTERS last night got off lightly, and they should be down on their knees thanking their respective deities for it.
I'm not a "Tory", or a "Royalist". I'm not trying to make excuses for ANYONE. I'm just sick of this current attitude of "fight makes right" - if you don't get what you want, smash up something that's someone else's. From "keying cars" to pissing on the Cenotaph - that's a jump FAR too far. In all honesty, the police aren't being anything like "heavy-handed" enough. "Heavy-handed" is what you get in Iran and Zimbabwe - do these "protesters" really want police dropping grenades into their midst from a helicopter, or something equally abominable?
I'm sick of these "student" scum crying foul, playing the "poor victim". You surrendered the moral high ground the moment one of your "anarchist" friends threw a fire extinguisher off the roof of Millbank, intending to hit the police several stories below.
Don't forget, my dears, that I can wield considerable power over you.
Ultimate power, however, is not mine to exercise - but it most definitely is in the possession of the special security detail travelling with the Royals who were accosted last night. Those "students" might have been seconds from getting bullets in their heads... and that's why these idiots aren't fit to earn degrees.
