Adam,
I was thinking the same thing last night when following the Twitter feed of Nottinghamshire Police and learning about the torching of Canning Circus police station. While not exactly my immediate-as-in-across-the-street neighbourhood, or that of Vague Connections, this is tentatively close enough to be taken seriously.
Basically, I am with you on this one, unless another member of the gaming group calls chicken, I would say let's pull the game too.
Otherwise, there is a 40% chance of a random encounter per trip. If an encounter is rolled, check on the following table:
0-29 3D8 chavs with Burberry caps
30-59 2D6 thugs (Warrior 4 with "lowlife scum" template)
60-69 2D6 English Defence League vigilantes
70-84 1D4+1 friendly police officers
85-90 1D2 BBC journalists reporting on "protesters" (*)
91-100 No encounter
(*) No, they are not "thugs" or "rioters" that would be in breach of their human rights.
