If you give a man fire, he'll be warm for an hour. If you light a man on fire, he'll be warm for the rest of his life.

True. Is that an ancient Chinese proverb?

No, I believe it's a quote from a Terry Pratchett book, but I forget which one.

And the sad thing is kids (Under 18's) get away with all this.

I'm not sure what things are like in America, but the youth problem in England is getting extremely bad... with people already being killed and ending up in comas... yet the sad thing is kids can't be punished because they have "rights". The worst that happens to them is that they get an ASBO.

A story I once told someone to demonstrate how bad the situation is becoming...

"So one day, I'm casually walking down the street, minding my own business, keeping to myself... when from the distance I see a small boy... no more than 12 or 13. As we get nearer and nearer, he suddenly reaches into his coat, and pulls out a gun.

BANG!

The kid shot me in the shoulder! Do I know this kid? No! Have I done anything to provoke him? No! He pulled out a gun and shot me in the shoulder for no reason...

Instints kick in, and I lash out... when one blow to the face I've knocked this kid out..."

You can all figure how bad the justice system is here... guess what happens next? That's right... I go to court. I get sentanced for assault. I end up on the front page of the Sun with quotes like "Do you trust this man on the streets?"... Never mind the fact a 13 year old has a live gun... I (an 18 year old) touched a 13 year old... and I'm going to hell.

f**king kids.
