I still think the Spanish cops got the right attitude, allowed to give a little 'slap' to make sure the thugs know who is in charge.
Whereas, when I was a teenager, yes people got jumped, we had fights, but more oftern it was between gangs, or just generaly two people pissed each other off enough, they fight. Now you can be walking down the road and be lamped for no reason, except it is funny to them, or happy slapped, or someone dislikes your trainers, or likes them so thinks you shouldn't be wearing them and they should.
If a political party turned around and stated that they would reinstate corporal punishment, give control of the classrooms back to the teachers and the streets back to the innocent and Police, they would get my vote.
