Hampshire police making progress in tackling yobs (From Daily Echo)

I wouldn't wish to be a Police Officer in this day and age.

Whilst claiming to make progress in tackling yobs, for every yob they tackle the yobs breed 10 more.

It's like bacteria, they just breed without anyone wanting them to.

Good luck to Hampshire Police, you'll need it!

Every right-minded, responsible citizen wants to support the Police. They play a key role in making our streets and neighbourhoods safe.

Sometimes, they put their lives on the line to protect us, even though they may never have met us. How incredible is that!

They can get a bad press because all professions contain a few corrupt, dishonest individuals who bring disrepute upon their profession and tarnish the overwhelming majority within that profession.

The so-called "Chav Culture" seems to be a relatively recent development in our Society. "Yobs" have existed for Eternity it seems to me!

"Chavs" and "Yobs" are a blight and a menace to honest decent folk.

To single out either in terms of:

" . . . for every yob they tackle the yobs breed 10 more.

It's like bacteria, they just breed without anyone wanting them to."

Seems simplistic. No? Equating humans who behave despicably and create untold misery for others as "bacteria" is a crude argument to make.

After all, crime knows no boundaries and crime or "yobbish" behaviour straddles all strata in Society, from the dumbass who keys someone's car to the greedy banker who decimates thousands of people's pensions.

I'm not sure it is a question of "breeding".

The phrase: "there but for the grace of God" springs to mind.

You, personally, like any mother on this Planet, could have invested all your skill and love in bringing up a child to be a smart, well-rounded individual with an attracive set of personal morals, only to find at the age of 18 they go right off the rails and cause you heartache, bewilderment and shame. It happens. Look around you at your friends or work colleagues or relatives.

Don't make the mistake of assuming I condone or minimise "yobbish" behaviour. I don't. I abhor it as much as you or the next person.

I simply make the observation that refering to anyone as "bacteria" is a crude argument and a unpleasant sound bite ( or should that be word bite? )

But they have a job to do and with out them the "Yobs" and "Scum" would rule.
Do you want that and support that?

The public should support them( the Police) more and report yob activity.

As for bacteria.. well the parents delivered these individuals into the world and did not teach them right from wrong.
They (the parents) themselves appear not to know or understand right from wrong so, it spreads like bacteria from one generation to the next.
They all are scum.

That's an unfair comparison. It assumes that bacteria are inherently A Bad Thing(tm). They're not. Bacteria are responsible for a lot of good things in life. They aid our digestive system. They give a lot of food it's taste. When something bio-degrades, that's bacteria at work. Let's not ignore all the great work bacteria do for us, eh!

Ladies should of course carry a big heavy one in their handbags, not sure what good it would do me to carry one however as I don't believe the apparent cannabis induced rantings of any of the Middle Eastern religions.

I think some people on this thread are referring to the kind of people who are giving evidence at the shirley towers inquest this week. Absolute vermin and they were breeding at the time,they should be exterminated.

Does that mean I shouldn't smite the unbelievers with a Koran, then?

Clearly need to work a little harder at stopping yobs chucking stones at drivers on the M3

Pithy, word-crafted comment. As ever, you approach an issue via an interesting glancing tangent.

After reading what you wrote, I reached for a natural yoghurt to finish off my lunch!

Perhaps we need a some judges like Gary Burrell QC to hand out some deterrent punishments for the anti social fraternity.

Name and shame them, pity the Stocks aren't a viable option.

Hope not, I've got a copy of the qoran and its built like a brick.
