Aren't you the person who was a known rioter? A few people said someone with your username was part of the riotings and lootings. Disgusting.


No I ****ing wasn't. Who the hell ever said that?

He/she was just baiting you(probably making it up), don't rise to it.

As for the main question, I have to agree; the youth of this country are a disgrace compared with much of Europe.

Sad that you'd maybe be inclined to agree after the past few days.... it's a shame. Oh hope none of this has put off people coming for the olympics next year though! It's not all of our youths


Let's be clear it is not British rather English. The Welsh, Scottish and Northern Irish have proved time and time again to be civilized. There is something fundamentally wrong with the English youths. It is true, youths in England are deeply vile, unpleasent and violent. One only has to look on here, on tsr to see such things.

The rioting started and ended in England. The rioting occured in England and England only. It sums up what is wrong with England and it's youth population.

Hahaha lol daily mail strikes again!

****ing idiots!


Even though it is not the Daily Mail saying it, they are actually specifically quoting another person, Dr Anthony Daniels? How does simply reporting the informed opinion of a renowned doctor-writer reflect badly on a newspaper?

I don't agree with the statement 'the most unpleasant in the world', but probably some of the most unpleasant in the developed world. These riots are testament to that fact.

Good. I don't blame people thinking that British youth are scum. In many circumstances, it is true.


First time I agree with you.

You're not a youth, so it doesn't apply to you.

what film is that, in your sig?

To be honest that paper is taking a very biased point of view, the youths that were robbing the shops, majority of whom properly aren't what a typical British youth is.

I think that's nonsense.
Looking at the youth of our country and then looking at the youths in other countries that have more poverty and corruption and crime, I think that's silly

I think that the rest of the world thinks that we are all posh,so I that's why everyone is so shocked at the riots.

**** off.

This incident may be bad, but that's only because we are comparing it to our 'modern society' with our systems etc.

I guarantee you will see much worse in other countries but i'm on my phone so can't specifically be assed to go around sites atm. But they won't 'look as bad' because the country will be used to it/used to much worse and things such as that.


Can u imagine been mocked by nations that nearly everyone in their countries have guns *cough* America.

So, going by these completely incidental generalisations, I'm now technically perceived as being more hardcore and violent than gun-running drug mule teenagers in South America, war children in certain parts of Africa, and gang members in all parts of North America, all because a bunch of yobs threw some bricks, started a few fires, and stole some iPhones? Interesting.

Exactly, it isn't sensible to start comparing youths around the world. We need a sense of perspective here. I think the standard here is pretty low, but to say we're the most violent in the world is just silly.
