Jun 5th, 2008 Do I Really Exist?I'm not sure what I really want, or need to say, so can I just ramble.....? I worry about things. It's my nature so to do. Today, I'm concerned by our government's decision to prosecute all teenagers who carry a knife. Given the number of fatal stabbings that are reported in the press, you'd think this a good thing. However, it takes no account of kids who are found in possession of a simple pocket knife, or a Swiss Army knife. Get caught in possession of ANY kind of knife under the new legislation and you'll gain a criminal record! Is this acceptable? I don't think it is. Sure, stabbings SEEM to be on the increase......But it's in direct proportion to the number of instances that are reported by the media. They make it sound as though every other teenager is packing a knife. That isn't the truth. I know of NO teenager who carries a knife. They're all too scared of being pulled by the police to even carry a simple penknife. There are many really bad kids around here, but they go ON being bad, with seeming immuinty, while our law-abiding kids are abiding are stopped and searched on the flimsiest of pretexts. Sorry, friends, but I needed to get this off my chest! This Journal Entry's Comment Board There are no comments on this post yet, be the first to leave one.
