Yawn....so having a Crackberry and a 30" flatscreen, but wanting an iPhone and a 50" screen makes you 'poor'?

This is a riot the way the stampeding hordes of savages at Walmart every Black Friday are a riot.

Average pay of$40k a year for less than 30 hrs a week? Not bad considering they're little more than flying waitresses.

Charles, in all seriousness, do you really think communism or socialism is all that great? The US needs some socialism for sure, but it is a pure idealogical nonsensical view. People breathe air, which power their muscles to build and maintain machines, which kill the air that people use, to power their muscles to build machines. Machines can 't function by themselves.

"Flash mobs started off in 2003 as peaceful and often humorous acts of public performance, such as mass dance routines or street pillow fights"

Oh white people, you're so cute.

The riots should surprise no one who’s been paying attention.
10 August 2011

"The riots are the apotheosis of the welfare state and popular culture in their British form. A population thinks (because it has often been told so by intellectuals and the political class) that it is entitled to a high standard of consumption, irrespective of its personal efforts; and therefore it regards the fact that it does not receive that high standard, by comparison with the rest of society, as a sign of injustice. It believes itself deprived (because it has often been told so by intellectuals and the political class), even though each member of it has received an education costing $80,000, toward which neither he nor—quite likely—any member of his family has made much of a contribution; indeed, he may well have lived his entire life at others’ expense, such that every mouthful of food he has ever eaten, every shirt he has ever worn, every television he has ever watched, has been provided by others. Even if he were to recognize this, he would not be grateful, for dependency does not promote gratitude. On the contrary, he would simply feel that the subventions were not sufficient to allow him to live as he would have liked.
