Who blames Who ?
The government blames the parents,
For youth culture breaking down,
Boys stab each other,
With weapon they have found,
For years the police have created,
A naming shaming culture,
That plays in to hands of villains,
With vendettasâ?? to score,
The governments gave us wars
In the name of Freedom, Pace and Love,
Are these the sort of signals?
That comes from a voice above,
Blair got paid millions
For his American support,
Where are the Questions?
That we seem to have ignored.
That famous voice from god,
That told him to kill innocents abroad,
The UK youth are fighting now,
Settling there own angered scores,
Blaming race or sexuality,
Or even foreigners,
From lands far abroad,

I am sick of hearing raciest statements,
From people in towns around,
When drunk on some sort of toxinsâ??,
Not all alcohol I have found.
What sort of signals have they given,
Society around?
What is there so called peace?
What is the common ground?
Let police and politicians,
Blame the parents,
Itâ??s the easy thing to do.
Letâ??s teach love peace and understanding,
Not vendettas,
That start us break down.
Stop the propaganda,
Ignorance and double standards,
Legal thugs, serious corruption,
Just breeds further hatred,
That spirals out of control.
So who is really to blame?

In reply to Chris Summerfield:

The picture here was taken at the London Peace Rally in the spring of 2008. I do not support extream groups, but I felt that this poster made a point.
Part of the series mentioned earlier in the year.

One more point on this subject.
Aggressive youth is nothing new, if you look at the sixties and beyond there have been periods when it has been highlighted usually when we are on a verge or going through a depression or recession. (Skinheads) (Quadraphenia).?
