WHAT ARE WE COMING TO?
The Press Association: Teenagers attack air ambulance
Every day we read of instances like this,teenagers holding the place to ransome. Does anyone know what the hell is going on?? or ideally how to put paid to this sort of thing.

I agree with you. It's disgusting and disgracefull. All reports on this and many other similar incidents refer to the culprits as lads. They are not lads. They are criminal thugs and should be reported as such, dealt with as such and properly punished as such.

It has long been my personal view that the only development that will bring about any change to the continuously worsening situation we as a society are having to put up with is the return of conscription. Either that or we are heading for total anarchy. I am not so sure you can lay this at the door of this or any previous Government, there has been a general demise is people's standards and the problem, sadly, starts in the home and upbringing. Not a lot of point blaming schools either - one can only sympathise with them having to try and make something out of what we deliver into their hands. Besides, their hands are tied - if they open their mouths or lift their hands they are (a) out of a job and (b) up in some Court.
Whilst not wishing to start a hostile chain-reaction, and in addition to the damage caused by the media, irresponsible parentage, reducing standards and general disrespect to others, especially seniors, the aged, the establishment or any form of authority, is it purely coincidental that over the last 30-40 years we have witnessed Church after Church closing down, and the numbers attending those that remain halved or less? I think not.
It is frightening that historically when countries and societies 'lose the plot' in this manner, the consequence is often war.

I think it's time that We got rid of Citizens Rights . That's what is causing all the problems, it only serves to protect the Evil 'fatherless children'. It's time that the Police are allowed to get tough on these morons. The do-Gooders are another problem. My Eldest Daughter is an Assistant Teacher at a Nursery school, No longer are they allowed to call a child naughty, any kid misbehaving is awarded not punished, Kids who are well behaved are not awarded. Kids who are disruptive in class are called special needs and Hyper active. Cor' makes My blood boil.
