Why not write your own instead of misquoting me?

Why not have a go at answering what separates the looters from the non-looters in those deprived communities?

 

In that situation it would be the force they would normally use. Grab him and arrest him. Don't see how that is any different to a similar situation in non-riot circumstances.

Probably parenting, peer pressure, nothing productive to do with their time etc.
