Living in Denmark the national passtime now is loosening peoples wheelnuts on their cars.
----------------------------------------------------------------------

They take things a step further than that in Liverpool, they take the wheels away as well.

It's the randomness of the attacks that's worrying for me, if it was just sc*mbag gang members throwing it at each other then go for it. But last month an Uber driver was attacked, just why?

Apparently, it originates from Pakistan, India and Bangladesh as a punishment for women for refusing to marry or to simply have a relationship with someone "if I can't have you no one can" that sort of thing.

"Apparently, it originates from Pakistan, India and Bangladesh..."

In fairness, that Wiki page does not say that.

It originates from people being s to each other and has happened all over ever since people noticed that some liquids cause physical harm to other people.

Need to sort out these feral prikks too: http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-england-birmingham-40785740

Kids dikking around on motorbikes seems to be a more widespread problem.

It all starts with kids and the way they are dragged up....

My son is 8. He had a problem with a kid in school who bullies everyone. The teachers and headmaster have been told by various parents about this one problem child.

Apparently the school operates a "No Expulsion" policy - meaning that however bad a kid behaves, however disruptive, he cannot be excluded.

Genius.

When I was in school, we had corporal punishment (cane or slipper). If that didn't work, you would be expelled. I never had the cane twice for the same thing. Archaic, and open to potential abuse, but effective.

Aye, "originated" was the wrong term but I couldn't edit after posting. Today, it is most common in South Asia though, especially Bangladesh.

It is really bad in Liverpool right now with all these kids on scramblers. My cousin says he can't hear his TV at night as there are a gang of 20 of them burning up and down the road. The police can't catch them as the bikes are too quick and they fly down small alleyways and across the park.

Too true.

The abolishment of corporal punishment was one of the worst things to happen in schools in the last 35 years or so.

Some kind of pole will stop most bikes quite quickly - either in the spokes on in the chest.

I've nothing against kids on motorbikes, many years ago me and mates all had them but rode them on waste land far away from anywhere.

Police eventually put a stop to that and now don't even care that they are being ridden on public roads.

I think most people used to ride them "on waste land far away from anywhere", that wouldn't be a problem. And it's the Police indifferance, or inability, to deal with it that is problem. Eventually people will deal with it themselves, then you'll have a real problem.

Police aren't going to get out of their X5's, Impreza's or 335d's to give foot chase down some alley for some noisy kids
They've got motorways and Dual's just waiting to be tore up don't you know

There are dirty, low life little scrotes in all major cities but London does seem to have a different breed of them.

Our capital is getting more and more like America's
problem cities.
----------------------------------------------------------------------
It's disgraceful of the US and the UK that their capital cities are so dangerous. Washington DC is one of the murder capitals of the world, London doesn't have guns, if it did, God save us, because it would be much like DC. There is a common thread to these bad areas, as in many other European cities now, but PC dictates I have to say no more.....

Pretty sure London does have guns.

People that I assume live in Manchester, calling London a shiithole. Come on guys.
