London Mark Duggan

Mark Duggan was shot dead by London Police. Now, his death has lead to peaceful protest to all out rioting in the street. Why Duggan was shot by police is an unknown. What is known, after Duggan death, that rioting and looting by young peoples has destroyed countless buildings in cities throughout London.

British Prime Minister David Cameron recalled Parliament from its summer recess Tuesday to deal with the crisis touched off by three days of rioting in London.


The fact that the rioting has gone on for three days has some speculating, it is not a race riot but an insurrection. The difference being that the youth are fed up with the dismal economic situations in their community.

Darcus Howe is quoted by BBC media,
“I don’t call it rioting—I call it an insurrection of the masses of the people. It is happening in Syria, it is happening in Clapham, it’s happening in Liverpool, it’s happening in Port-au-Spain, Trinidad, and that is the nature of the historical moment.”


Could we have another revolt in Europe but this time against the ruling class of the British and not muslim nations?
