Anna Hazare and the London riots

Would it not be advisable for  the UK to learn the art of protesting peacefully and without damaging cars, properties, looting and burning the place and vandalizing whatever they can lay their hands on.

They in millions have been protesting peacefully out there in Delhi and around India , having arguments, etc but at the end of the day wiser and better sense prevails. Would the UK  now learn from the experience of the peaceful protests by Anna and his supporters  or would they still pretend they know to do it better then the third world

The indian politicians consider it their birthright to loot as thats the only thing they know best

The difference is that the a few youth in the UK looted some shops etc, yet the Indian corrupt Politician are looting the country left right and centre. I guess both scenarios are about looting and not about the protest..:)

John lalay - that was in the past and as was seen all around the world in the last few days this same scenario is coming back to haunt them for what they did to the others during their previous years. Its their time now to call the protestors looters and thieves.

Yeah   Motiv8er you are so right and then we would have been having Jagan Kutty as the PM in UK and Sunil Venugopalan as the Home secretary  and our very own Mayawati as the Queen. It sure would have made for a  wonderful experience

Anna & Gandhi have an ideology....................I don't think Brits have that (or ever had that)..........except for easy money by hook or crook.

we still no to do it better than anyone!! haha only joking, in an idealistic world we wouldnt need to learn from any body as each nation/neighbour would live in perfect harmony but as this is the real world unfortunately that wont happen, i think a little looting and a major media coverage and something that has been going on in india for over forty years somehow are not that comparable,
