But that would only be the ones up to no good, all the decent ones keep well away from them!
If National Service was reinstated, there wouldn't be half the crime as there is now as kids would get taught a bit of respect and disciplne.
When I was younger, we used to play on Skateboards or with a football, not vandalising railway property or hanging around in hoodies terrorising folk.
And another thing, whats with the government spending millions of pounds of adverts telling kids not to hit they're girlfriends? I never had them adverts and I still knew that you dont go around hitting women.
What sort of society are we living in?
By the way, I'm 30 not a moaning Old Man.
Capital Punishment or maybe a tour of duty in Afghanistan as IED detectors.
My post was aimed fairly and squarely at low life, oxygen wasting, brain cell deprived scum NOT the 95% of decent kids out there!QUOTE]
Yes, I don't think anybody can label every single young person in the 'being a complete div' bracket, all I was trying to say is I am finding kids are getting away with far more these days because they have nothing to fear. Two of my friends have given up teaching because they are fed up with the abuse they get from the kids, both verbally and even physically! But they have no powers to stop them or even touch them (even if they are being hit continiously). Its out of control....When I was in school if a teacher shouted everyone sat up and listened and had the respect to stop whatever naughtyness they were doing. I'm not talking bring back the cane, but lets at least be a little more stern with them.
.....or send all of the idiot ones to military school atleast the rest of the youth that are good law abiding and respectful citizens won't have to worry about getting a bad name, then.
I think the military have enough to do without running reform schools.

We had a s4ithead who terrorised our neighbourhood for about 3 years,until he turned 16, suddenly his whole attitude changed because he was then classed as an adult, all the time he was giving us s4it I kept telling him that when he was 16 I would make good on my promise.
2 months after his birthday I got him, you should have seen him cry and that was before I hit him, still made good on the promise though, boy it felt good!
So you descended to his level. I guess both of you need the attention of the law. Or perhaps a vigilante mob made up of his family then a counter mob of your family and so on and so on.

Skateboarding and football in residential streets can be a serious nuisance. The irony of your post is exquisite.

Did you do National Service of any sort?
The country does not want a conscript army.
And who would decide who "needs" National Service?
You should really engage brain before spouting rubbish.

Your attitude towards them often determines how they approach you, if you're already hostile with them expecting trouble, you can't blame them for being hostile with you.
I've come across some real thugs of young lads who I wouldn't entertain in prison never mind my own home, but as long as you have a good attitude, you'll very rarely get the bad side of them. Just like the general public.
Just like the Facebook group kids usually wear hoodies because they're cold, not because they're about to knife you.

Well if they are caught should be stuck in some 'Stocks' for a few Hours.
I can't personally Comment on National Service if it should be brought back or not since im only 20/21 but i personally think it would be a bad idea, first off all we can't afford it as a country also every one would be treated the same, even if they are decent citenzens.
