as a a young british man (Early 20s) i would like to state i few facts, that i think the press dont like. 1) most young people are good, theres just a few bad apples. 2) With the exception of smack causing robberiesto pay for addiction, and crackcausing hyper-confidence and consequently some violence, young people on drugs are too busy enjoying themselves to commit crimes (its just a convient and believable excuse for criminals) . I am also really anoyed that the press never state any the good things that young people do; this is most clearly demonstrated to me by the fact that today when i walked through town with my hood up 2 seperate people crossed the road to get away from me and its winter and cold. so some young people settle their differences through violence, dont blame computer games, i think the youth of today have done well considering their are virtually no positive role models and many negative ones. And one final thing the generation that stood by while the tories sold our future (industries) and while bush, blair and brown etc lied to them about WMDs and then went into illegal wars should clean up their own generation, before starting on the future one. Sorry to rant on but today really anoyed me and sick of the misconceptions.

My personal opinion is that young people need older peoples wisdom, and older people need young peoples fresh ideas, and goverment needs to get away from the political donation sytems. Drugs dont cause crimes, criminal idiots do. Governments dont control the masses, the tv controls the masses.

This is only relevant to the post about new terrorism laws being bought in due to stabbings etc
