The London Bridge is Falling Down….

Not literally falling down, but with 3+ days of rioting, London is falling apart.

Some people are still wondering what sparked the riots in the first place.  Riots erupted following peaceful protests over, what some say, was an unjustified deadly shooting death by police of a local man, Mark Duggan.  The rioting which began in London’s Tottenham neighborhood, has now spread to other major British cities.  It has gotten so bad that the British police are considering the use of rubber bullets to bring calm to the mayhem that has unfolded.  So far 525 people have been arrested.  Let’s just hope that calmness and restoration occurs soon.  For more information, click here.
