British "Riots" or whatever

I really have to write at least one post about these crazy things which have been happening in Britain lately. Since I treat Britain as one of my homelands (the other two being Poland and the United States) and much of my family lives there, I follow these things quite carefully. First let's deal not with the reason why all these low-lives (recepients of benefits and other welfare/socialism queens) are looting and raiding or, as they claim, protesting, but with their means of doing so. I find all their behaviour to be entirely inappropriate and I would like some serious action to be taken in order to prevent any further attacks. This is what the army, police, or military police (if such a thing exists in England) are for. Any violent protests should be stopped by any means possible. In this way I hearken back to my blog post about the famous Generalissimo Franco. Authoritarian heads-of-state usually have one good thing about them; they use all means possible to supress any socialist disorder or other evil movements. I think these violent criminals on the streets of England should be "taken care of" by whatever means required aside from simply using live rounds to kill them (that would be a bit excessive for the ones who are in the streets, but would be fully permitted in case of any obvious looters). In case any democratic member of society reads this, I vindicate my seemingly violent position by a link to the following article.
But what about these supposed protesters (i.e. simple gang of looters)? I find their credentials quite questionable because most of the areas they vandalize are retail stores, electronic-device stores, and banks. Clearly, they just want to steal stuff. But let's suppose for a moment they were genuine protesters struggling against the injustice committed against them by the state - what should their plan of action be? Well, as far as I can tell, they should be protesting against the state! I am all in favour of that (always and everywhere)! So what should they do? Attack STATE PROPERTY! So far, however, I have seen no pictures of people burning down state buildings. They seem to be focused on private property. If I was in their place I would be burning down public schools, administration offices, government bureaus, council housing and property, or any other industries that I know are subsidized heavily by the government (good job for burning banks, just don't rob them - it gives the wrong impression!).
So why have these so-called protesters not done any of these things? Because they are on benefits and they are therefore on the government's payroll! These people are government employees rioting because their wages were cut! The welfare-age of Labour is over, the Conservatives have come and finally done some good. I was always very sceptical of the Conservative power take-over but as it turns out they are doing all the right things. To put it simply (as my sister clearly pointed out to me the other day), "the rioters are not burning down Council Houses because they live in them!". And, of course, all these people were actaully educated in public schools. So it seems these people are just disgruntled fledgelings of the Labour Party movement - socialist demagogues and hedonist primitives in the making. We all know what makes criminals criminals (their high time-preference). So now I think the goals of the Cameron cabinet should be to kill off this particular movement and to reform the education system and the welfare system. We cannot have such extreme hedonism tolerated by society. I have always adovcated moderate hedonism (in the Epicurean or Catholic traditions), but all-out hedonism can cause nothing but destruction of capital, authority, and nation.

It is important to know your place. I don't mean this in a sense where we all subject ourselves to the rule of others, but I mean the position we all occupy in society by voluntary choice according to reason. Low time-preferance being the key to reasonability, of course.
"Order is Heaven's first law; and this confess,
Some are and must be greater than the rest."

Thus writes Alexander Pope and thus, I must confess, lie my own thoughts...
