Living in crime infested Britain



Here is a typical example of the yob culture that is so pervasive in Britain today. I woke up last Sunday morning to find the windshield of my car smashed. After speaking to witnesses who lived nearby, it transpired that some youths had taken a brick from the nearby nearby skip (there is construction work going on in our street) chucked it through my windshield and then ran off (you can see the desintegrated brick in the photo below). These kind of incidents are so common, the Police won't even bother sending an Officer over, they have more serious crimes to deal with.

Armchair commentators say that fear of crime is invented by the media, but when you take into account the large number of Britons who have actually been victims of crime, it's not very surprising.
