human suffering not property loss

hmmm... I've been reading the B.B.C.'s coverage of the riots, and though it's not as bad as the rioting itself, it compares. Particularly, I'm apalled by the idea that the thing we should hate about the rioting is the temporary breakage of the "moral" law of property. If that were the only effect of the rioting, I'd have some sympathy for it. But when fires are set all over a city and countless random people are threatened(all in a reasonably liberal welfare state,) I agree with Cameron's assessment of "common thuggery." But these journalists betray where they're really at by focusing on the subversion of capitalism... and barely mentioning the human suffering shared by all classes of society, except for that top echelon that so influence these journalists' perspectives.
