OK, its the daily mail, so take most of it as overblown.

i'll translate for you..

Quote:

Villagers said some of the children tried to break into the ambulance that took him to hospital.
drunk kids tried the doors

Quote:

After complaints from villagers, the comprehensive's deputy head, Alison Hughes, wrote to parents in stark terms.
1 or 2 people

Quote:

"This is the underside of teenage life in this area," she added. Around 70 children from the school are thought to have been among the estimated 200 party-goers.
about 1/3 of the party went to the same school, where did the others come from ?

Quote:

Locals who went to clean up said they found broken glass, bloodstains and evidence of drug-taking. A new sink had been smashed.
a party with 200 people at it, thats hardly surprising.

Quote:

Mrs Hughes added that underage sex among the partygoers - aged between 14 and 16 - had been widespread and warned that some of them may be at risk of pregnancy or sexually-transmitted diseases.
widespread, no numbers being touted, so not as many as the paper would like.

Quote:

The local pub landlord said he was threatened when he refused to sell them alcohol and cigarettes.
whats that got to do with a party, that happens every day


Quote:

The school said yesterday that "a disturbingly high" number of pupils had unprotected sex while drunk as up to 200 teenagers ran riot at a village hall.
whats the difference between disturbingly high and widespread ?

Quote:

During the unsupervised party the hall was badly damaged and nearby residents were horrified when the revellers spilled out into the street, among them a boy stripped to his boxer shorts and scantily-clad girls.
YET ... not one villager called the police !
Not one comment about the noise levels ?

Clearly, as there were no proper nudie runs (which would have definately been mentioned had it happened), that party clearly didnt go off.

Aren't ALL teenage girls scantily clad these days? I was under the impression female trendiness was inversely proportional to the weight of clothes being worn...

their political stance is that the government is letting kids go out of control, schools are useless, bad ones dont get long enough jail sentances, parents are allowing their kids to go out of control and possibly they should introduce some form of boot camp to straighten them out .


The Mail is very good at only putting in enough facts so that it supports their stance, then rants on for at least 4 paragraphs and if you read carefully has usually contradicted itself somewhere.

It's sort of like what a barrel of gunpowder and a lit match means for your life expectancy.

Incidentally I'd object strongly to the statement that the Daily Mail has an actual political stance as opposed to a collection of barely coherent populist cliches it alternates between depending on what day of the week it is.

i thought that was 2% of your brain cells. Probably gets them both in one fell swoop to be honest.

It all made sense when I made this thread. But now, a few days later, I seem to have forgotten in which direction I wanted this thread to go. Even though I'm sure as hell that it was interesting and witty.

Were you on drugs?

Marilyn Manson 26 Mar 2008 18:49

Re: So...
 
Okay. So you get two hundred secondary school kids together for an "unsupervised party" and you are then surprised when it turns into bedlam? ****ing hell.

Let me just repeat that: Two hundred secondary school kids.

Even just looking at that phrase, I immediately get mental images of the poll tax riots.

Although I'm not really bothered by this. I mean, they're teenagers ffs. In my experience, the only people who get really worked up about this kind of thing are the sorts of people who didn't have the motivation or intelligence to do this sort of thing when they were kids.

Haven't we all started a riot in a village hall at some point in our lives? I mean ffs.

Pfft.

People who live on council estates and in terraces have that all the time. I'm tralking day and night here. But oh no, when suburbanites get it once in a blue moon when St. Trinians accidentally leaves the front door unlocked and you'd think the sky had fallen in.

I found the comments entertaining:

More half-wit products of a socialist education system.
- Charlie Hedley, Telford

Has Mr. "so what" Balls any comment? It seems ten years of New Labour "education, education, education" is not producing the promised results. Perhaps it's only teething problems. Would he like another ten years to try again?

I blame nu labour and the TV companies...
