Stop calling violent riots here in America flash mobs

The London Riots are just stupidness in action. But this brings me to another point ... these so called "Flash Mobs". In the USA the media likes to call VIOLENT RIOTS "Flash Mobs" I guess because it sounds safer and innocent.

Please stop. They are NOT the same thing.

Lets make this very clear...

Oprah or Beyonce can have a 'flash mob' (Orpah.com & YouTube)

Hundreds of teenage punks beating innocent citizens is a RIOT.

The following are just a examples I found in 5 minutes on Google News. They all happened in the PAST 6 MONTHS right here in the USA.

1. Violent mobs in Philly

3. Greensboro attacks
