"But in most cases youths are not sat in their homes with sub-machine-guns
scared that their parents are going to take their lives.
Instead, fear grips them when they step outside their homes, when they walk down the courts, roads, twists and turns of their council estates."
I love this quote from an article in the Independent today.

Many issues raised in this are also raised in
Bobby Hossain's book which I contributed.
