Like Rush said, it seems whole cultures are simply going mad. I can't believe what people are putting up with.

Gott strafe England!

[ButThreeLeftsDo]

Typical UK, gets it all wrong again.

[GeronL]

YUP. Thats what Theodore Dalrymple was talking about. Arrest kids for climbing trees, for saying a mans horse is gay and then real assault you blame the victim and your lucky if the real thug gets more than 18 months in jail.

[GeronL]

How far behind them are we?? A few years?

[Modok]

Good grief, I hope they searched her house well for sharp knives and other pointy things before she kills someone. People as wild as this old lady might even want to drink beer standing at the bar for crying out loud.

[Mr. Mojo]

England -- where "Alex de Large" types who cowardly beat up on grannies for "fun" are considered victims, and the grannies who dare stand up to them are considered criminals.

A society as sick as any on earth.

[darkangel82]

Wtf added "better off with Hitler" to the keywords?

[The KG9 Kid]

Yet there are British citizens that post on FreeRepublic who swear to God that none of this is real.

If the thread goes on long enough, you might even catch one of them saying something insane like 'Well, that woman assaulted a child. Of course she should face the consequences of her actions.'.

Don't make me name names.

Tony Blair runs around the world now, making "Global Warming" and "Stem Cell" agreements and speeches, while his police state gets larger and less "civil", and less willing to maintain a civil society all the time - someone may take offense.

In the meantime, with crime increasing, at least the Bobbies can at least sit and watch their pervasive video surveilence cameras, while old ladys get abused.

Europe should be on a suicide watch.

What are yobs?

[YOUGOTIT]

As I have said many times in the past you no longer have the right to defend yourself in the United Kingdom. The left-wing idiots have taken over and given the place to the criminals.

[montomike]

My father is pure Irish and my mother is pure English.

I was proud of both heritages but lately have been leaning heavily to the Emerald Isle side of the scale.

[Natural Law]

Wouldn't have happened if the old lady was packing heat, or even if the yobs thought she might be packing heat. Too bad the UK and most of America don't have a 2nd Ammendment right.

[fso301]

Yobs are rosey cheeked English delinquents. What were the demographics of these youth?

[YOUGOTIT]

Hopefully the names of these idiots will be put on the list and never allowed to come to he United States, but then it might be good if they attacked someone in one of our states that have passed no need to run laws.

[SeaBiscuit]

This insanity has become more and more prevalent all over.. the true victim is now the perp and the real perp is the victim.

[mugs99]

"It seemed the lad had told his mum what had happened and she had immediately lodged a complaint of assault,"

He and his "mum" would be run out of town where I live.
.

[OldEagle]

She apparently has children. Where are they on this? If someone assaulted my mother, his age would not be an issue.
I don't understand nonviolence or pacifism in a case like this.

[Kirkwood]

Something needed in the UK:

[over3Owithabrain]

What was her dog doing during all this? Mine would have been eating yob casserole.
