Another sad death this week. A lawyer who happened on the wrong bunch of teenagers apparently already known to the police, carrying a scewdriver as a weapon. The radio report said that he had tried to mediate with them when a girl was under threat. www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-england-tyne-49373700

Scumbags. The country is going down hill rapidly.
Police officers seriously injured, or murdered . Daily stabbing and shootings.
Capital punishment may not solve the problems but it is what they deserve.

There's just no discipline, no respect, and no deterrent anymore, and the situation is seemingly getting worse at an alarming rate.
Yet another terrible story and a totally unnecessary death.
We've very nearly become like a third world country where life is cheap and death means little if anything.
I saw an article this week where it said some crazy percentage of children and young teenagers were now carrying knives or weapons for their own protection, but that they would also not hesitate to use them.
RIP to Mr Duncan and condolences to another family whose lives have been wrecked by this senseless tragedy.

RIP What the fuck is up with these kids ? I watched that program last night about the "murdered for being different" case, how can anyone let alone kids be so barbaric.

This could be any one of us or our family. By next week we would have ( understandably) moved on to the next thing/ the latest news. For the families, sons, daughters parents of Peter and the Police officer life is never the same again. For this reason the issue of "social unrest" should be treated as an emergency. It is no use saying that these are isolated incidents and that society is generally safe. Mind you.... what do we do? Personally I support Boris's and Patel's emphasis on more policing/ stop and search , irrespective of if it is only a reversal of previous cuts.... that should never have happened. I don't care whichever Political group firs something about it as long as they do try to do something.
