Whilst I might not use the word "terrorist", I would certainly ascribe

At some point, you have to ask yourself why they do it. If you really
think they were born with 'vicious motives of callous contempt for
their fellow man' then you should write a thesis on genetic determinism
that will blow Darwin out the window.

As someone who prosecutes in the Youth Court very frequently


And what job is this, exactly?

Did you know, for example, the reason that so many of these youths wear their
trousers half way down their thighs is to "empathise" with the murders
on Devil's Island in New York who were not allowed belts in prison in
case they attempted suicide.


This is a wind up, right? Only a fool would fall for an urban myth that
no youth in Britain has even heard of. Next you'll be telling us that
mods, rockers and punks were not dedicated followers of rebellious
fashion, but mimics of deadly prison uniforms of the time.
