Odds ‘n Sods:

London riots: breakdown of Monday night’s violence [1]. (Two observations from JWR: 1.) A lot of these “youths” appear to be in their 20s and 30s, and, 2.)

You can’t blame these Turkish shop owners in London’s Dalston for arming themselves. Video: London Riots: Shop-owners defend their businesses in east London [2]. (Riotguns would of course be better, but this is England.) And here is a related article: London riots: residents fight back [3]. (Also with a video clip.)

For any who have doubts about a Christian’s role vis-a-vis government authority, I recommend the new book Romans 13: The True Meaning of Submission [6]. It was co-authored by Pastor Chuck Baldwin and his son Timothy Baldwin. They share my view that it is our Christian duty to respect and submit to good government, but to resist wicked rulers. The book is also available via Kindle. [7]
