    I don`t think that chanting " Vince, Vince, Vince Cable" has the same ring as " Ho, Ho, HO Chi Ming" some how. What do you think?

    Ouch!

    True on so many levels and well done for speaking the truth. The question is, how does society resolve that?

    Controversy for controversy's sake. Think that your 'riskee' comments make you witty, interesting? Are you trying to make out like you're a genuine character, not afraid to shock people, who doesn't care what people think? Creating a facade of honest dissent to hide the fact that you're actually totally devoid of any interesting personality traits, or any interesting ideas?

    Nicking a TV seems to be a more logical choice - sell it on ebay and you can buy a dinghy and have money left over for a McDonalds.

    I'd start with looting tesco, that way I can spare my neighbour and his liver :)

    I'd never riot.
    I'm a total coward.

    It's dangerous out there... lots of loonies chucking bricks and molotov cocktails. So many ways to end up dead.

    I was in the Grosvenor Square riot by accident (lost Oxford St tube) and they were throwing pennies at the fuzz, but most of them just hit other 'rioters,' like me.

    Of course those were the old fashioned pennies, or d, which were nice & hefty. Nowadays, to get the same effect, you'd need at least 50p, or £2 coins would be better.

    Seems even the cost of rioting has suffered from inflation.
