Your solutions sound almost Chav-like:hihi::hihi:

Yeah wot iz a chav.

Vegetable?
music genre?
Old Person?
Scouser?
Baggy Jeans wearing person?

Robbie----It's impossible to get rid of them,as things stand.The media are against harsh measures,Parliament is too and a lot of the thickies who make up the population of our "wonderful "country,either couldn't give a monkey's or can afford to live far away from all the crap.
All we can hope for is a giant backlash but at the moment it's difficult to see where it'll come from.?
This has all been going down the swanee for at least 25 years.I more or less said this on a meesage to the "youths on buses " site.
I've worked abroad for a few years and you notice it more when you return after an interval. Depressing, innit ?
The sad thing is that the chavs are not particularly hard---just boring,thick as pig**** and mob--handed.
In no other country that I've worked in would the ordinary people stand for it and the Old Bill abroad are something else ! That's why our football fans are always whining when they get a good whack from the foreign Bill---they think they are like the British police who have to stand for any old ****.

Hmmm. British football fans are renowned for being thugs across Europe, and indeed the world over. However, I take your point. Foreign police are much more vigilant.

I, for one, am against an over-ruling capitilast dictatorship, but at the same time I disagree with extreme left wing idealists. One of my ex-girlfriends (originally from North Yorkshire) saw a television show on the BBC portraying the police in Sheffield and Rotherham. She believed them to be far too harsh. I, as a civilian of Sheffield, saw them as being far too lax.

Call me right-wing, (although I will protest until I am blue in the face that I am not), but the police in Britain are far too liberal when it comes to trouble makers. A friend of mine visited France, and the Paris police arrested him and his companions for the possession of soft drugs, hand-cuffing him personally for over four hours. As much as I felt sorry for the guy, his fellow co-travellers deserved such rigourous treatent, and should expect so on home soil.

I sound like a kill-joy, too old before my time, but I stand by my beliefs, because the way I see it, a "Blade Runner" type future is frighteningly realistic unless we all endevour to do something about it.

It's almost laughable how many of you feel threatened by them. I find that just as amusing as the Chav's themselves.

I originally thought that the one side effect of a global thermo-nuclear exchange was that the Chavs and similar low-lifes would go along with us....

I now appreciate that I was wrong. Like the cockroaches they'll inherit the earth, protected by the amount of gold bling they wear, the immunity to radiation induced cancers given them by chain smoking L&Bs and their incredible proclivity for breeding.

Even if their life expectancy in a post nuclear world is 20 summers, by that time they've already probably had at least one brood.

There...that's my anti-Chav, bigotted, biased, politically incorrect rant and fulmination done for the day!

And it's still early!

Rant early, rant often! :)

J-blaze's comment is a bit irrelevant.We may not feel personally threatened by the chavs but a lot of people---particularly old or disabled people----do feel threatened AND alsc WE have to pay for them too. Graffiti,wilful damage,arson,hospital bills,police bills,handouts....etc...
In most countries in the world and in pre---1975 Britain , people felt quite relaxed going out late at night for a drink in Town centres or to shops.Do they now ? How does some old dear feel having to walk past a big gang of scroats ,swearing and laughing at her as she nips out to buy a loaf of bread ?
You'd have to be blind not to see that this country is slowly but surely turning into a social cesspool.

If there was a nuclear holocaust, chavs and cockroaches would survive. :P

No such word. However, endemic means 'present within a localized area or only found within a particular group of people'.

Ahhh, the old chav debate...

Yes, they are annoying. Yes, they are threatening to old people and other vulnerable groups.

However, I'm not sure society could function without them. You see, society has a heirarchy and everyone likes, even in some small way, to think that they are better than someone else.

If we were to get rid of the chav's, the rest of us couldn't feel so smug and superior.

We need to keep the chavs, but make them harmless in some way. Much like battery chickens who have their beaks removed to stop them pecking the other chickens.

As I have mentioned before I work in a toughish secondary school. The 'chav' bug is spreading at an alarming rate and I see no antidote. These 'chavites' have no true singular identity and rely on each other to survive. It's pathetic really. The Police have no power and before long we will have an epidemic on our hands. What we need is immunisation on a grand scale. Surgical removal for the more seriously- affected baseball cap wearer is inevitable. Maybe an amnesty on bbcaps and bling is an idea. :hihi:

No, by their baseball caps!! ;)

So fox hunting is to be banned from February.

No, I'm not on the wrong thread!!

We now have several hundreds of cherry-faced inbreeds at a loose end, complete with several thousands of baying hounds still lusting after the kill.

Added to that, there are probably several thousand burberry topped vermin roaming freely amongst us and causing far more damage and upset than any fox ever did.

Are you with me so far?

You may consider this to be grossly unfair and cruel. I agree! So to make it fair we give the poor hounds a fighting chance by fastening the yobs' ankles together with 12" of chain (usually to be found conveniently hanging around their own necks), and give them 30 second start.

The prize? Burberry caps mounted on pub walls.

Benefits of this?

Country folk stay in jobs, hounds live, streets safe and economy boosted through lack of waste keeping these vermin housed, fed and entertained.

Job's a good un!:clap:

PS,

If we confine it to one small area (local park) we could make it a paying spectator event and monies raised goes to victim support.

LOL! Love it - I'll probably claim the phrase as my own in due course!

And you know this how ?
Have you asked these groups of people ?

I would imagine the old feel more threatened by the cold weather, the risk of freezing to death being more of a possibility than being attacked by someone.

And which disabled people are particualrly at risk, blind people, deaf people, people in wheelchairs ?

You don't sound harsh, just a bit dim.

Well,Nick2,personally,I'm a bit busy so I don't have time to go round interviewing vulnerable people about how safe they feel on the street.
Like ,almost everyone who discusses things I have to rely on statistics and what I've heard from people on the way round life and what's generally in the media.
The OVERWHELMING evidence from all sources shows that crimes of violence have gone up and vulnerable people feel progressively unsafe.
I can't imagine some old dear sitting at home working out her chances of getting mugged vis-avis freezing to death. If just one old geezer gets mugged in the locality,people must feel ,"Is it me next ?"---and that's how they DO feel---if you read the papers.
Also,people shouldn't freeze to death as they get a heating allowance and materially the country is better off in that respect.
Read the papers, listen to the radio, watch the telly----unless it's all a big conspiracy,conjured up by the North Koreans----old people are more frightened these days by chavs....etc....

Do we have to have one of these threads every week ?

* sigh *
