Hoodies

A Hoody (see above) is the name given to a hooded top. Whilst this form of clothing may be harmless on its own (the picture is actually slightly unnerving, due to the lack of a face from within the dark chasm...), it can be used for more sinister purposes.

Hoodies are worn by many people (including quite amusing the Prime Ministers wife). However, there is a certain social grouping within the UK known as "Trevs", who consist primarily of working class youths. These youths gather in large groups, and many people feel intimidated by the scene of a mass of people, often with their faces obscured by these garments.

Trevs generally gather with the intention of having a good time. There is no harm in that, but due to their apparent lack of sensibility, tend to consume large amounts of alcohol when attempting to live up to what is expected of them by their peers. The alcohol causes many of their number to become violent (as happens to a lot of people who drink). This is when these violent attacks tend to occur.

There is also a barbaric and sickening "craze" which is known as "Happy Slapping", where an individual is approached by a gang of youths and abused in various ways (e.g., the most extreme of cases was the setting on fire of a sleeping drunk, which, whilst amusing, is clearly quite wrong). The attack is filmed by one member of the gang on his/her Camera Phone, and is then circulated amongst classmates.

The U.S show "Jackass" is reported to be the catalst of such incidents, but one can't help feel that these people lack a fundamental sense of morality.

People are sick sick being arent they? 

They dont care what they are doing unless they enjoy it. No consideration anymore. And people wonder why i hate people. Truely sad

Unless you wrote the article I quoted then no!  Or is it that you agree with setting someone on fire is amusing?
