[QUOTE="BusynMember, post: 452850, member: 1550"] Quite a bit. I'm appalled, really. It seems to me as if the kids are out of control brats. There is no excuse for destruction and looting like that. I am glad that in the US the police carry guns as does the population. There is no other way to defend yourself against this type of destruction any other way in my opinion. I hope you are far away from that and are safe and sound! From what I've heard it started when a police officer killed somebody. To me, his mistake is not an excuse for all that. I also hear that some is social upheaval from service cuts...again, I don't see this as a reason to destroy. It happens...programs do get cut at times. Of course, I'm not sure of how much I hear is true. I don't trust the media. Usually I listen to CNN and they have had a lot of coverage of this. To be fair, I tend to listen to the US news more carefully, but this story was hard to miss. [/QUOTE]
