Free Nights of Riots - Beans On Toast
From the album Frank Turner produced :) BoT supported Frank when I first when to see him.
Big Brother isn't watching you
Russell Brand’s response to the riots. The incontinently eloquent son of a gun; it’s pretty much perfect, dammit.
[On the London rioters] Mr Selous says he “salutes” single parents but adds that it is easier to raise children properly when they live with a mother and father.
Here I go ranting again.
I think raising bad children has NOTHING to do with the number of parents. If you raise your child without any discipline, without any love or respect then your child is going to turn into a little shit. Children with two parents but no discipline will still turn out morally challenged. I do agree that young mothers and fathers can’t provide the right environment for a growing child, of course there are exceptions but in most cases the child ends up suffering. Unfortunately, in our society now it is common that children do not feel loved in their own homes, their parents won’t encourage them to do things whether it be through laziness or lack of money. Mothers and fathers (and yeah, mostly in poorer areas) need to learn the lesson that a child needs a supportive environment. If you call you child “little shit/bastard” even endearingly, then how is that child going to turn out? I saw a young boy in town the other day, he can’t have been more than 12 and he was shouting at these young pre-teen girls calling them whores and sluts and prostitutes and I was just disgusted. Some one needs to teach that child that acting like that is NOT acceptable. But no, it’s all too common now and that really, really makes me sad. It makes me fear for the society I live in. I walk around in my own city scared of violence and rape. Things were supposed to be getting better in the 21st century but I can seriously see them getting worse.
skirting round the edges of the ideal demographic: I didn't realise it was the PIAS warehouse that burned up
Fuck.
Just fuck. This isn’t any kind of revolution. It’s exactly the kind of minority idiocy that gives everyone else in the nation a bad reputation.
There still seems to be confusion between the definition of protesters and rioters. It all stems from something peaceful (a specific protest) that…
Wilyum always says things better than I can.
My two cents on all this mess.
Yeah, these are the people that are setting fire to your country.
“Yeah, it’s cuz of the Conservatives. Or whatever it is.”
“It’s the rich people, the people who have got businesses and that’s why all of this has happened because of rich people. So we’re just showing rich people we can do what we want.”
