Well you for one are not the one being slaughtered while sitting
in school. Since us adults can not get it done maybe they can. GO School Students go.
Lets look at just one story, of Mr. Askew who died a tormented death, by teenagers.
Imagine being picked on and bullied day in and day out for 10 years. Gangs of teenagers
constantly harassing you. When you step out to get groceries, come home from visiting
friends, or just try to get some sleep—you constantly live in fear.
Your home is not your castle. It is a gathering ground for 10-, 15- and 18-year-old thugs
who get a kick out of mistreating you.
You have tried standing up for yourself, but at 64 years old, you are past your physical prime.
You have called the police, your family members have called the police, and several neighbors
have called the police, but nothing changes. In desperation, you resort to bribery—paying your
tormentors to leave you alone—but that only results in even more thugs assaulting you.
Broken windows. Vandalized gardens. Constant trespassing. A nightmare.This was the life of
64-year-old England resident David Askew, before his premature death by heart attack—
brought on by the mistreatment by teenagers.
Neighbors said Mr. Askew had been “tormented to death”—“like bear baiting.”
His tormentors would bug him, bug him, and bug him, until he finally exploded in rage.
“This has been going on for about 10 years,” said neighbor Avona Davies. “They tormented
David for money and cigarettes. They harassed him every night without fail.” The pack of feral
teenage yobs even picked on Askew’s 88-year-old, wheelchair-bound mother, whom he lived with.
Mr. Askew’s case is not an isolated incident.

the Times reported the death of Albert and Kath Adams, both 77. The couple died in a fire when
someone lit Mr. Adams’s scooter on fire and the flames spread to the house. Neighbors claim it
was a revenge attack after the couple confronted a gang of teenagers who harassed residents
and vandalized the community.
Within 12 hours a second scooter, belonging to neighbors in their 90s, was set alight. A message,
whether intentional or not, was sent loud and clear from the teenagers to the retirement community:
We can do whatever we want, and there is little the police can do. Interviewed residents refused
to give their names for fear of reprisals.
The reality of the limits of the justice system became all too clear to restaurant owner Sal Miah.
When teenagers broke into his beer cellar, he chased them down and brought them back to his
restaurant, where he told his diners not to worry and his staff to watch them until police arrived.
Meanwhile, a bunch of the teenagers’ friends arrived and started trying to kick his restaurant door
in.Fearing for the safety of his guests, he locked the door and went outside to stop the teenagers
from getting in and damaging his property. In doing so he pushed some of the teenagers away from
his windows.
But when the police arrived, they didn’t care that the teenagers had broken into his property,
or that he had managed to catch the perpetrators and hand them over to the police on a platter.
Instead, the police believed the gang of teenagers, who claimed Mr. Miah had punched and
attacked them.
For his trouble, Mr. Miah was fingerprinted, his mugshot taken; he was charged with assault and
battery, and was thrown in jail for five hours. According to police, Mr. Miah should not have tried
to apprehend the youths and should have “observe[d] from a safe distance” before calling them.
“This country is getting worse,” says Miah. “You see gangs tormenting people
and they are just getting away with it. … The system is a joke.”

With society degraded so far—it is a sad thing to say, but no amount of legislation,
or even law enforcement, will be able to fix things.
“As for my people, children are their oppressors, and women rule over them,” Isaiah wrote.
“O my people, they which lead thee cause thee to err, and destroy the way of thy paths” .
Isaiah said children would be our oppressors. The original Hebrew word means to drive
(like an animal), to be a taskmaster, harass or tyrannize.
This verse is a great summation of today’s news headlines concerning young people.
Most children do not respect their parents or any authority. They drive society like beasts
of burden, always wanting more. They harass and goad. And now some have become
tyrannical monsters who murder us.
