Let's see what was attacked.

Foot Asylum got looted http://www.footasylum.com/
Bargain Booze in the suburb of Salford got looted.
Money Shop looted, this is a payday loan/ check cashing chain.
Swarovski was looted
Miss Selfridge was looted http://www.missselfridge.com Looks kind of like a Bloomingdales level department store.
Bang and Ulufson, a high end stereo and TV chain, was looted.
And a Tesco and Tesco Express, UK's Walmart (although technically Walmart owns ASDA, but Tesco is omnipresent in the way that Walmart is in the US), got looted.

There were also some clashes with police.

2. While I'll never shed a tear at a payday loan place getting trashed, this is pretty sad. (nt)

3. Policestation in Nottingham firebombed.

Damn.

4. Has the feeling of generalized

doesn't it?

And if this starts to go this way, cops will be playing whack a mole soon.
