Social Media has been named, by the police chief in London UK, as being the cause of flash riots though London and other major cities, it is unclear as the the reason for these acts. He also said that the police, no matter how much training they have had, will not be able to deal with the crisis at hand. (Here's hoping that's a double bluff.) In North America social media has been responsible for flash mobs but it is for fun, not violence and looting.
Many businesses have been looted and set on fire, some of which have residences above them. The riotous mobs are popping up recklessly in Manchester, Bristol and Birmingham also. Seemingly senseless violence, spectators filming, gratuitous sealing going on and sometimes the police taking 2hrs to reach the trouble.
Perhaps the police could use the social media to their advantage, instead of moaning about it.
