Incidentally, for whoever suggested the old "we need more bobbies on the beat" solution...
Research proves that having more police officers walking around has absolutely no impact on crime. It serves purely and simply as token reassurance to little old ladies with fond memories of Dixon of Dock Green. For police officers on foot to have any impact at all, you'd need one on every street, which equates to Sussex having about a hundred thousand coppers, instead of the current 3,000.
Lets face it, if you're the sort of little sh1t who's going to run around and smash up bus stops, you'd simply wait until the friendly village copper has tootled off to the next street wouldn't you? People don't stop shoplifting for example, just because the shop has a security guard. They just wait until their backs are turned.

cant be arsed to read the whole thread so heres my two pence on teenagers being TWATS:
1) Bring back THE SLIPPER at school, let thme have a good SHOEING whilst they are young!
2) Sod the EU shite and MAKE them write lines on the white/blackboard...human rights MY ARSE they need to LEARN
3) The ONLY way kids learn is if they are punished severly on get a WRAP on the wrists, wagging fingers and saying "dont do that" does NOT work.
4) Make them do CHORES in detention, like Mowing the school field with a FLYMO or mopping up the hallways floors...you know..tedious jobs that they wont get paid for!

Your support is not that great
There are too many decent people getting killed or injured tackling these gangs to make it worth threatening violence or getting involved in a slanging match. Anyway, why stoop to such a neanderthal level?
I saw some kids running across the roof of an infants school one weekend, obviously looking for vandalism opportunities. I nonchalantly told them that the police were on their way and you've never seen kids run so fast.
As for the idea that Thatcher destroyed society ... not sure that these kids or their parents ever got around to reading that particular Guardian article. I think you'll find they were comfortable with the idea of society beginning and ending in their fag-strewn front rooms long before Maggie caught up with that theory.

They need to be put down a few pegs. They seem to think that they own the area in which they roam/vandalise, only way to teach them is to give them a good slapping.
I dunno, when I was that age I just used to wank & play Kick Off 2. That never did anyone any harm
