Personally i felt a great saddness that 3 little girls had been brutally murdered and the mind numbing grief people related and who know them must feel, had I been there l think I would have been angry very fuckin angry but not towards the police or the local Mosque.I've tried to stay away from Twitter the last few days but had a quick look earlier. There was a ding dong between two people I know, both of whom I'd happily have a pint with, but who were, let's say, on opposite sides of the debate.
One was defending the rioters on the ground that "people were angry". My feelings on hearing the awful news were shock and great sadness, as I'm sure they were for many. But I didn't shout and scream attheTV, let alone wreck my house, or go out and attack someone or something.
So what is it that people are "angry" about? Were they "angry" when they heard about John Hunt's wife and daughters being brutally murdered? I don't recall anger, vigils and riots over that. Or any other incidents involving the deaths of children via neglect or violence.
I've heard people say "The government should do something" or "their country let them down". Do they want everyone to have personal protection, or a couple of coppers permanently stationed on every street corner?
Given that the person charged came from a seemingly devout Christian family, are they now going to start attacking churches?
I think I know the answer but I'll ask the question again, which is what exactly are they angry about?
