Wanton violence is hardly the preserve of the poor...ask JK about the public school system,and all the horrors of fagging,beatings and of course the rugger field!!

my "sort of people' wouldn't have embraced Thatcherism so the poor chap wouldn't have been homeless as he'd be in a nice council flat and the mindless yobs would have become apprentices, joined a union and had productive lives if British industry hadn't been destroyed

This is all the fault of the 60s "liberals" ... tell people that ONLY their interests matter (like abortion, for instance - just kill a kid if its inconvenient !) leads directly to a society where nothing has any value (except in benefit claims !!!).
Result?
Ten Dead kids from 2 families alone (plus millions of aborted kids).
I share your horror at millions of children killed for convenience, but I wouldn't want to add to that number by not providing properly for single mothers and children.
I am not sure we can blame sixties liberals but it does seem as if an awful lot of people put their own needs in front of others.
Those who sit back and let others provide for their horses, and those who say "I'm alright Jack" and let others suffer.

I'm not criticising you for having limits on your compassion ITK: most people do (apart from us 60s liberals).
