Da Yoof hanging around Goodrich Rd/Dunstans Rd mini-roudabout...(Lounged)

[*Bob*]

Don't worry about it, SCSB79, Jah says it'll be alright.

Now let's get this thread lounged, before (God Forbid) some sort of debate breaks out.

Lounged

[SCSB79]

Not that I am bothered, but this thread can't really tick any more boxes for the "General ED issues/gossip" criteria!!!

[Administrator]

I forgot to mention it was Lounged for going off topic and being too chatty.

Apologies SCSB79 but as you had posted a concluding post I decided to move it to the Lounge where the conversation could continue. I can de-Lounge should you request it, I got da power.

Are you also as serious as cancer?

Oh wait, no, that was their other song wasn't it?

[jimmy two times]

Natasha I live in a council block and I don't find it depressing.

But I didn't did I. If you want a debate why don't you start one instead of hiding behind you so-called witticisms.

Wrong side of bed, Jah?

I just had a sudden thought that with this being the third thread in as many weeks about 'gangs/groups' of (mostly) black youths coupled with a few facts such as black youths being disproportionately more likely (than eg white youths) to be the victim of crime; to be involved in crime and last but not least to be suspected of being involved in crime even if they aren't - in a forum where most people spend more time arguing about whether you can say 'a group of black youths' if 100% of them aren't black, or black enough.. then possibly there might be other avenues for discussion here.

But if you want to put it all down to hi-jinks because when you were a lad you used to hang around the off licence and throw chips at your mates, then fine.

[Jah Lush]

No. Slept like a baby (meaning I woke up crying twice in the night and shat and pissed in my nappy). We couldn't afford chips. We spent all our money on booze and drugs. Some things never change.

I am aforementioned neighbour to SCSB79 and I did speak to the safer neighbourhood team and they did say that they would send a 'unit' round (sounds heavy) if we ever needed them to.. its just difficult to know whether its necessary or not.. as mamafeelgood says though, don't think of it as hassling the police but helping them... I just wish da yoof would hang around on their own doorsteps.. not ours.!
