Let me sum up where this all went wrong in a nutshell. In my day if a kid thought he was cock and became a nuisance‚ then we‚ or you‚ all heard of some one taking this into their own hands. In other words let me spell it out for you. Another gang of older lads would take the little buggers off the street by giving them a good hiding‚ and that would be the end of the trouble. No fuss‚ no police‚ just historys way of dealing with things‚ as has gone on for centuries. What has changed now you may ask? Well society has been dumbed down to such a level in this country by the increase of the Social Worker types and successive governments particularly this last lot‚ taking away the old values of sorting out the patch on your own doorstep. Over protection to the attacker‚ and the victim becomes the easy target for the police to charge for retaliation. Hence the abused can’t get even‚ or they become too afraid and eventually the abuser gains the upper hand. My solution‚ simple and effective. We have plenty of ex SAS soldiers with time on their hands. They could be assigned and funded by the taxpayer to go under cover on the estates and with time and knowledge‚ sort out the problem‚ in their own style of operation‚ ie: physical pain to the abuser‚ with out any fear of charge. Once the mission is done‚ they move off the patch and go elsewhere etc. Unless we have a virtual eye for an eye and get away from this pampered nanny state‚ we will never gain the advantage back‚ and this country will sink further down in to the abyss.
