Part of me thinks the media should just shut the fk on this one and report it very low key.

The sort of people involved in the riots don't need too much of a cause and this seems to be getting much more time and coverage than it deserves.

I think some of you should apply to join the Police Firearms Unit. You seem to know exactly how you'd react in a very fast moving and potentially life threatening situation.

There was a stat somewhere on the number of times ARVs have been called out and the number of times shots had been fired, let alone anyone had been killed, and it was something like 000's of callouts and 5 shots - they're hardly trigger happy.

I don't want to trivialise it to the extent of "st happens" but people make mistakes and it's odd that people seem to be concentrating on those that the Police made that day more than the many that Mr Duggan seems to have made when it came to life choices.
