So many lives wasted...

[soapbox]

Just watching the news of the teenager killed yesterday.

The mother and father are in bits, completely beside themselves with grief!

Kashif himself, cut down at the start of adulthood.

The murderer/murderers who will pronbablu be incarcerated for most of their late teens and 20's.

What a waste! How can we have so much in this country and yet still have so little regard for human life?

We really have got to get a grip over knife crime - it is ruining way too many lives

I don't know if I am talking about the same incident - but the 16 year old that got stabbed in Ilford - not a million miles away from where I live - he had a fight with another lad and then 12 others got involved. The result being two boys held his arms back while one stabbed him in the chest. The others videoed it on their phones.

What is going on in the world??

What the hell is it with this videoing it on the phones???

How sick can people get... not just to let someone be killed, but then to film the misery too.

the video thing is sick. itsc alled happy slapping i think. sicko's do nasty things to people (beat them up, one lad was set fire to etc etc) their mates film it, then its sent all over the www. its sick.

the local paper this week is full of car accidents.

Oh! That's whats happy slapping is - I kept hearing about it, and on the days when I actually got round to getting and reading a paper, it wasn't mentioned.
