  • And the morons burned Nandos in Brixton on Sunday...

    My daughter was getting BBM broadcasts yesterday.

    Some imploring her to got to Hackney to join the riots, others imploring her to go to Hackney to defend Nando's.

    'Can't have our Nando's burnt down'

    I can't believe they did the one in Brixton, some scummy class of rioter you've got down South.

    Shamelessly filched from another forum

    All programmes have now been suspended on all channels to allow the broadcast of this film, which has been held in reserve for times of crisis:

    Okay - I know this is semi-serious but having seen stuff like this at home... watercannon filled with indelible dye. Anyone caught later with it will be assumed to have been rioting. Give plenty of warning so no excuses!!
    The dye bit is my idea but surely it's worth a shot. May be legally a bit dodgy re: the assumption of guilt but leaving them looking like pimples (bright yellow colouring) might be worth it.

  • Some old dear on the radio was saying they should spray them all with blue dye so they can all be identified and arrested the next morning and petrol so they don't want to strike any matches.

    I'm sure the sight of hundreds of burning Smurfs would be an excellent deterrent.

  • someone on the radio up here was saying a suitable punishment would be to put the rioters in a room and make them watch footage of starving africans for 8 hours and during that time don't feed them so they'll get to know what real suffering is like. Bejeebus.

    What we need are some of those helicopters they have in North America which are used put out forest fires, the ones that dump vast amounts of water from a hanging bucket. In the absence of any heavy rain that we have at the moment simply drench the rioters from the sky until they're too cold, wet and miserable to carry on. Problem solved. Of course we'd need some of these helicopters first...

    Not only done before (abroad), but a staple elemment of cash in transit boxes is the indelible dye bomb that goes off if the box is forced open liberally covering the money & anything/one close vicinity in purple dye.

    I think its a neat idea & would get round them being soooo big and brave in their scarves, masks & sunglasses. But I suspect the councils & shops would kick off at the dyeing of the streets & fronts.

    Liquid laxative or farm slurry might be a more amusing if less permanently staining solution.

    Damn!!! Just remembered I'm not a bleeding heart liberal.....It wouldn't work, sorry.

    If water cannon is too much, but riot ending rain is not available, how about water bombing?
