Why are some mindless morons so hell bent on destroying, or at least damaging other peoples property or enjoyment? Okay so they may not be interested in the subject, or like what others do, but there is NO need to take the action they do.

And because they only get a slap on the wrist when they are caught, they will do it again and again. When will this country wake up and start sorting these toe rags out. Make them pay for the damage in some way or other, take away their pride and joy and ban them from replacing it. If the law was to have their car burnt or their PC, PSP, Wii, skate Board, TV, or what ever and bar them from replacing them, and really enforce the ban, they just might think twice.

A very good friend of mine has said to me many times. You have to be able to take something off these people, you have to have something to trade with. I have given my grandchildren what they want. Within reason. Then if they are naughty you can take something away from them, letting them have it back, when, and if, they are good.
A lot of these kids, and I am not sticking up for them at all, have nothing.
The main thing that is missing with a lot of them is no love and guidance from parents. Mainly because the fathers have gone on to the next easy lay they can find and give us another bundle of joy that no one wants.
I cannot see a way out of this mess we are in, but I do believe they have to have something to "trade" with. Hope that makes sense.
I am not a do gooder, I have been in positions were I could have gladly killed some of these boneheads myself, but I am at a loss as to what to do.
I just worry for my beautiful Grandchildrens future. Aint that sad?
Paul
