That young man is a Malaysian named Mohd Asyraf Raziq Rosli. See story in our local news here: http://thestar.com.my/news/story.asp?file=%2F2011%2F8%2F10%2Fnation%2F9272131&sec=nation#.TkHUlS8AOKs.facebook

Chemplaxx,
Please that is not happening here and you can leave this country anytime you want if you think you can find better elsewhere. No one will stop you.

Would never leave!!! you are correct in what you say. But blind in your view.
Come down from the Ivory Tower tell me what do you see. It is not Heaven here.
Just like the rest of the World, Children Starving, No Jobs etc etc. survival of the richest.
America is supposed to be a World Leader, but how can you Lead the World when you cannot even lead America correct. Wouldn't you agree overall it is time for a change. I am not saying the way other Nations people are protesting a corrupt Government is the way to do it. But don't think it can't happen here. Definately there is a need for a change!!!!!!
Only question is when.

Close off all the street and surround the protestors, gather them all up and truck them to all an Army reception center for immediate induction into the British Army. They need discipline, direction and the benefits of a military education, including college tuition when they complete their tour of duty. That's how I got my college degree, from payments from the U.S. Treasury for my two year tour of duty. It's what the lads need, direction and hope for the future.

Unbelievable lack of cajones...at least call the Syrian embassy officials in for a tongue lashing.

The ONLY thing that keeps society form turning into mass, mindless anarchy is fear of reprisal. This is especially true of young males whose testosterone feeds on each other's mob mentality. It has nothing to do with race or economic strata, young males of every country become engaged in this hysteric behavior. It only takes some trivial thing they can use as an excuse to destroy, burn and murder whomever or whatever they encounter. Whether a race riot or a football game, anything will ignite a murderous rampage. The only thing that will stop them is overwhelming police presence and offensive action

These are not poor folk lamenting jobs rents and services. We have them here in the USA. These are thugs 24/7 ready for the opportunity to pounce. When the disturbance comes, they race to join in, not to make statements, but to rampage. Just like the british soccer fans travel europe, not for the game, but for the riot in or out of the stadium against the police forces. This is the anarchist crowd which has hit major commercial and governmental events in this country, some coming in from overseas, many local. Don't dismiss the fun and games following a local teams championship win or loss. These people look forward to trashing and burning. If someone dies or is maimed, no one is responsible. And we are forced to call these creeps young adults.

I agree
here in the US we have the same thing but they are called Political Parties and Corporate

Hey, there are low lives everywhere in the world. I really thought
that was kind of sick that all those people watched it happen and
did absolutely nothing to stop it. I kind of thought that they would
be better then that. At least here, we have seen bystanders intervene
sometimes when something like this happens.

[frankerin]

You kind of thought! It is way past time these weepy moany liberal watchers of the american social world and read the dangers and needs for control so many people object to. This kid got mugged, and would have been in any other setting in which he was drunk, hurt, disabled or in someway impaired. The creeps were not teens either. They are so well integrated in Tottenham that blacks and whites young and old are delighted to partake of an easy mugging. Three cheers integration

You do realize that the British government is far more conservative than here in the U.S. right?

[mrupp002]

05:31 PM on 08/09/2011

No it happens here all the time, it is just not covered always. Look at Chicago, people do it all the time there and then will not talk to police when they try to investigate the crimes. People in China step over people that have been hit by cars. The herd loses compassion, just move along. I tell you what, one gun shot and they would have left him alone. Drop one of them and the rest would scatter like the wolves they are. If they knew the were taking their lives in their hand they might think twice.

Look in the mirror, believe it or not you are one of "those" people

I guess that is a little hard on you, what I mean is you too could be those people except for compassion. Just be glad your parents and mentors did a good job!

Talk about the lowest common denominator. Hunt these vermin down and eradicate them.
