Let natural selection take its course.
I came to realise that every time we recognise something human in creatures, we are also recognising something creaturely in ourselves. That is central to the rejection of human supremacism as the pernicious doctrine it is.

Slow process if you are being kept awake at 4 in the morning though.

Do you understand that those people are all the result of billions of years of natural selection? Less natural selection, not more might be a better idea.

 Play Agaddo and the Birdie song at 'em. They'll shift soon enough.
"for, as long as but a hundred of us remain alive, never will we on any conditions be brought under English rule. It is in truth not for glory, nor riches, nor honours that we are fighting, but for freedom - for that alone, which no honest man gives up but with life itself."

Judging from the pictures that accompanied the BBC story, their sound system was pretty meaty - stadium concert levels, in fact.

Which leads me to ask why the police didn't simply cut the power.

Presumably they didn't have enough presence to be able to contain a riot?
 
Ah, but I was so much older then ... I'm younger than that now
