Bhim Kholi was an 80 year old man walking his dog in a Leicester Park when he was set upon by children dressed in balaclavas and slider shoes, some of them as young as 13. He was beaten to death after the children abused him with racial taunts. Not sure how we arrived at this point in society. Are these kids the same kind who went rioting after the Southport Murders? Again that was a child murdering other children. Then children attacking police and trying to burn down hotels. Admittedly not all children. But why are some kids so brutal? Oh my gawd. And what in the Lord's name are 'slider shoes'?

Slider shoes are pretty much expensive flip-flops.

I had a discussion about society last week with a manager from a hotel, he has dealt with more yobs than he did back than did 20 years ago. I blame the lockdowns but he blames that children can't be slapped or be told off by parents and teachers.

Society has become more aggressive in the last few years. It also seems that the victim gets penalised whilst the crims get rewarded.

The police are more bothered about social media posts than investigating a burglary. All you get is a crime number, "look on marketplaces, eBay and Gumtree" NFA and "talk to the insurance people". In that order.



There was also the fear of getting a bollocking at home and getting struck over the legs or knees with the belt and belt buckle.

Police are powerless due to kids' ages, they can only return them to their parents, and the parents don't care either.

When I was a kid the coppers we knew were tall and well-spoken. Now they look like cosplayers at a comic con, short asses most of them.

I have said it before a few times on here. I was no saint as a kid nor were my group of friends, but we respected the old like they were our grandparents.

If you used a weapon in a fight or attacked someone younger or smaller you were labelled a "pussy".

We carried knives but they were used to make stuff in the woods, not on people.

Again that was a child murdering other children

I would not call a 17 year old a child. The legal system is retarded at times in the UK.

The only things you can do extra at 18 is go to casinos, play the Lotto, put a cross in a box, get a slag tag and drink in pubs legally.

Yet, we did most of them things at 16 and 17.

The shoes are irrelevant, but child killers aren't - and have always been with us.

You can fly a glider solo at 16. Never understood that one so young.

When I was in the fourth form years ago a supply teacher stood in and began by saying "Hello Children" to us and was laughed at for saying that to us all at 14 and 15 years old. We didn't feel like children at all, and in many cases didn't act or look like it either, and that age in the early 80's was a damned sight more mature than the equivalent nowadays are, who seem to act all over confident and self entitled.
