Witnessed the second massive rideout near me this month.
Swerving around in traffic, blocking off major roads, making a shit load of noise, hurling threats and abuse at people ... but that was just the police's massive, massive overreaction to it both times.
These kids are a nuisance tbh, but the police treating it like it some kind of riot is fucking ridiculous. I'm sure its going a long way to further undermine police respect amongst potentially vulnerable teenagers.
