It does seem that young people are violent .
It could be all these violent video games .
Or 
Lack of consequences .

Even  judges and juries excuse violent behaviour .

That's a popular one... :smiley:

But why would that be,  Scrumps?   :hmm:
I know I need to phone them,  but I keep putting it off because they will tie me up in knots, no doubt.

Pete had fallen asleep by then,
He was in bed most nights by ten 
With a bed sock on his head
And cuddling his furry Ted
T'was his own little blissful den.


Ben went off to his local bar
He had a liking for a jar

And now a 15 yr boy old has been arrested for attempted murder in Pembrokeshire today.   He attacked his teacher.

Why are some of todays young so violent?    Is the TV,  or the internet,  or  drugs, or what?  And I have a horrible feeling things will get worse before they get better.
The most kids would do long ago was pinch a couple of sweets from the shop,  or let down someone's bicycle tyres!

Quote from: Scrumpy on Yesterday at 01:40:35 PMTrump.. Clinton.. Bill Gates have all been named..
Perhaps the press think the Mandelson thing is more important to this country..

Trump is very powerful.. Things can be hidden and destroyed..
I doubt that though.. This sort of 'Gossip' will be brought up again and again in decades to come..
There is always someone out there who knows or has copied something of interest..
Waiting for the 'right moment'...

I expect you're right, Scrumpy.

But these men bring it on themselves, don't they.  I have no sympathy.
I can only think they must pay handsomely,  because I can't see any other attraction.   In fact I wouldn't want any of them if they were the last man on earth.

Pete peeped over his garden gate
He was spying on his neighbour Kate
She was having a delivery from Ocado
What was in her bags !! He wanted to know
But it didn't arrive til very late. 

Pete had fallen asleep by then,
He was in bed most nights by ten
