Well, I thought they were a good idea, you thought they were a good idea, hell, I thought everyone though they were a good idea but:
These devices are indiscriminate and target all children and young people, including babies, regardless of whether they are behaving or misbehaving.
Damn, I forgot all about the gangs of babies hanging about on street corners but not actually doing anything wrong. Oh bugger. Well, perhaps they could include some visual recognition software and program it to look for this:
The babies round here are well hard, one baby extended it's middle finger at me when I was trying to get to my car. I continued walking and luckily when I got back the gang of babies had gone.

Ah, the root cause That there is no threat from actually being punished when they've done anything wrong, all they get is a slap on the wrist and "come on lads, that's not a nice thing to do" rather than a clip round the ear and a good bollocking. It worked for me when I was growing up!

A bloke on the radio just summed it up for me, he said something like... "When shopkeepers and other members of the public are being abused, attacked and even killed by gangs of youths as they go about their day to day business, I sometimes wonder if we take 'Human Rights' a bit far....."

On my walk back from work i go past a basketball court/football ground which is always full of scumbags shouting, arsing about and drinking Carling. They all look about 15, 16, 17 sort of age so not legal to drink, but yet when the Community Officers on there bikes turn up they do nowt and the Chavs just hurl abuse at them. I think them Mosquito things are a good idea, i would be well pissed off if i lived near that basketball court because they are there everyday f*cking around.
I bet these whinging, moaning "human rights activists" don't live in affected areas either mate. I wonder if they'll think mosquitos are a bad idea when a bunch of yoofs are kicking their heads in and nicking and their wallets, clowns!!

That's the trouble. We've got all these tosspots that studied "sociology" at uni and haven't the first f*cking clue about real life, screaming human rights left right and centre, the damaging bastards taking away any powers the police used to have because it could be "phsychologically damaging" to raise your voice to someone in anger, heaven forbid taking the little sods home for a bollocking by their parents. Go back to your herbal tea and roll a fat one Mr and Ms human rights
