Way To Go Youth Of London

You burned all kinds of things and tomorrow your lives won't be any better - only now everything will have the smell of burnt city attached to it. That odor takes forever to get out of the carpets. I know I am growing up because I find myself thinking more of the mess these riots have created instead of applauding the youthful anarchy like I used to.

This is what happens when people play games with the largest economy in the world. This is the 'trickle down' effect Republicans believe so strongly in - only in this case what is trickling down is not opportunity but dispair. This is what happens when a civilization actively supresses hope and justice. Eventually the pressure builds and what happened this week in London becomes a grim reality of the selfish and superficial times we live in.
