sadly violence is not a modern phenomenon and has been happening for many years as has gang culture, the three big differences are the use of guns (once the trademark of bank robbers), more random targets an the last one is aimed at us, the fact that we can get our news much easier.
as a kid i was raised in tuebrook as were all my family, i can remember in the early 70s going to the blackhills (a field next to a railway embankment in tuebrook) to watch a gang fight between 'the brook' (tuebrook) and 'the breck' breck road. this was like something out of a movie with easily 50 lads on each side with an array of weapons, another gang at the time was 'sparrow hall'.
back in those days it was just about fighting, not about crime or drugs as it is now, and the main difference was the targets, they targeted each other,not innocents or old people.
now the morals are different, anyone is a target to these kunts, the groups hanging around now are a threat to everyone, even going back to the late 80's early 90's i have been in many scraps in the police with these kunts, the worst was breaking my hand in 1991 in st helens when me and a colleague were attacked by 12 lads, (we managed to arrest 5, no mean feat with the help of arriving backup) whilst the others ran, a couple got sent down whilst the other got a slap on the wrist. the sentences handed down were small and are a badge of honour for these kunt. luckily they were sent to the YOI where my stepdad worked who was happy to remind them on a daily basis what kunts they were.
so what can you do, sadly if you give someone a kicking and they complain to the police it will have to be dealt with then its up to the police or the CPS to charge you, luckily there are still some police who will laugh at the scrote when he comes in to complain and send him packing, whilst others will arrest you and charge you.
i will take you back to 1992 when a policeman serving in the OSD had a problem, his little brother (schoolboy) was attacked by some kunt because of who his brother was, knowing how bad the courts were at the time he and a few others wore ski masks while they dragged this kunt into a car, drove him somewhere and gave him a severe beating, then left him. anonymity is needed to do these things.
i agree its about time some of the older blokes sorted this out, the courts wont do, the police are not as keen now with too many cameras about. a few broken bones will have the majority of the hangers on deciding its not what they want while the real nutters will not be too bothered by it.
anyway my pennies worth on it.
i dont care if they are killing each other to be honest, its when the innocents get caught in it that i bother, this is an 11 year old kid whose only worries were whether he played well enough, whether he could have made a different pass, whether his new school would be good, and now he is gone, killed at the hands of someone without any conscience, killed by someone who thinks he his hard, put him in a room unarmed with rhys's dad and see how hard to tw@t is.
Rhys, rest in peace lad, its not your fault, its not your families fault, but many people who allow this type of thing or encourage it should hang their heads in f*cking shame.
low life scum, its never ending this guys, i said this many years and said it earlier in this thread, these kunts will breed and bring their kids up the same, with no manners and no sense of right or wrong and it will just keep escalating.
I love liverpool and will defend it to the hilt, every day i miss it, but I am also happy I am away from it sometimes, I have two cousins involved in all this gang stuff in liverpool, they are making a fortune and i keep trying to get them to get out and move over here to open a business. they have promised me they are not using firearms, but that doesn't mean a bullet will not hit them. they are family and i have tried, just as i am sure some other families have tried but its hard to force them to stop. but if i thought they were involved in something like this, as hard as they are, their feet wouldn't touch the floor.
my sympathies to the jones family, especially to the mum who held him while his life drained away, think how horrific that must have been for her, her baby and she couldn't do anything for him except hold him and comfort him, she probably didn't have a clue what was going on and even now must be in a daze and not sure what happening.
sad times
