london riots - my take on it all

sad. just so sad. i live only a 5-10 minute walk from camden - it's my stamping ground - a place i know and love intimately - and to see it destroyed so soon after the devastation of the arson-attack on the market that almost brought camden town to it's knees is heartbreaking - for all the sympathy i have for 'our lost generation' i just can't find it in myself to understand this insanity - so much has been lost and so many people have been hurt and for what? nothing has been achieved. with our softly-softly approach the UK has sadly reaped what it has sown - and we find ourselves now with a pampered degenerate minority of youngsters trying to imitate the representative proportion of 'serious peaceful activists' - it's never gonna work cos these young people have no sense of purpose or of understanding so when they rebel and of course they will - they get it wrong - and why? they get it wrong because they don't know any different - the schools are scared of them - the authorities are scared of them and even their own parents are scared of them - these young people (most of whom who are capable decent youngsters) would and still could be just so very different if only our government hadn't passed complete 'nanny state' ludicrous laws that has now produced a generation of 'mess'. I have seen hundreds of friends all over london hurt and my own life has been destroyed - and i ask again? for what? y'know people often say that youngsters today think 'the world owes them a living' - well y'know what? maybe it does - if there were jobs for people to be doing then maybe just maybe they could be earning that living instead of having to loot for it. two muppet c's (cameron and clegg) could maybe work on that sometime. but hey i guess it don't real matter none to me - i lost everything because of it and now i'm just trawling round london helping clean up where i can and trying my best to forgive - to be honest i'm nothing but heartbroken

my thoughts are with you all - please take good care - johnny x
