Guyz please stop arguing on my opinion. I know SJsah opened this thread here, so that more people will look and sign on it. I just commented it because at that time I thought so.
If anyone's mind hurt by my comment, I apologize for that.

@SJ there is option for non UK people to sign on petition.so I signed it

[MrOSX]

Im in liverpool and riots here are CRAZY!

[sasacal]

I think only UK citizen can sign this petition!

[Solutho]

?We cant have jobs.... so there you go?
Brilliant argument.

Anyway, the petition is a great idea, in my country there's a lot of scum that shouldnt have benefits, but is it viable?
I mean, legally. Wouldnt this has to be passed on parliament or something first?

[Sp32]

100,000 signatures gets it passed to house of commons, they wouldn't be able to stop the benefits because it's against human rights laws in the UK but they might deduct to the lowest amount possible or charge a certain fee and deduct it fortnightly.

[iHate]

I myself live in London and i have seen the devastation first hand,
but i do not agree with this petition because if you think about it
already these people are losing their housing benefits/having their
tenancy cancelled but taking away the benefits of these idiots will
cause more unrest amongst them, think about it if you having nothing
else to lose what do you do? you start acting 10x worse than before.

SO basically what I am saying removing benefits is a bad move
what the result will be is people committing more crime to support
themselves and yes they would eventually get arrested but as I'm sure
you know prisons in the UK are full and they are even releasing paedophiles
rapists and what not earlier then their actual sentence but either way
it cost's us the UK Tax payer a lot more to keep people in prisons and
this would be more of a burden on us than just letting them have their benefits.

So basically a summary:
No Money + No Home = Nothing to lose = More problems for the rest of us.

Just to clarify I do not support the protesters in no way.

[CG|MyDS]

True, people who think they have nothing now will not have anything to lose if they get their benefits etc taken away... therefore become 10x worse as you say iHate. Good Point Indeed.
