It's definitely the police's fault for being institutionally racist, whatever has happened.

He added: "Mate ive seen alot of sh** im my time but that has to rank sumwhere in the top 3. I couldnt believe my eyes. That was some movie st."

After claiming to have seen "someone get run over and beheaded" before seeing the "police shoot them", he must have seen some interesting things...

I'm guessing it's Afro-Carribean slang for 'brother' or 'fellow black man'. It's hard reading, that's for sure!

BBC Website - 1626: BBC News Home Affairs Correspondent Danny Shaw says: "Sources suggest at this stage that soldiers were not involved in the incident in Woolwich - though that has yet to be confirmed by police."

EDIT - Update says soldier killed frown

Jesus Tittyf cking Christ.

Looks like two loons have hacked off the head of a soldier, before being shot by police.
