Pearson, Keef and Claire you making really good points. I have a brother who is a social worker, and his view is that their has always been kids who cause trouble, its just that now it gets a lot more media attention, media attention that is aimed at not just covering a story but making it dramatic!! Kids to me just need attention - attention that is positive. They feel a knife or gun makes them the big man, this is because no one has told them that they have other qualities and spent time harnassing their qualities. I think we could all do a bit more in the community, organising community days were we all facilitata events on sport/community, show them the dangers of what they are doing and consequences involvement to things like career advice!! get them to see the bigger picture Also not trying to dramatise that Dulwich is a haven for crime - there are many amazing things about it and lets shout about them!!

So people should be ranked in status - i.e amount of time they have spent on it.... And also why are you posting here you have made your point, you seemed to have looked at the side you wish to defend - all succeded. So please now you have done that can we move on Sue, or would you like a t-shirt that says I state the obvious time and time again.

I dont know, but looks like he was insulted to, and it takes two to tango!! Also he has since apologised!! Dont see anyone else doing that. So Sue solutions to help our community????

Sue, how is that helping? Why would you post that? What is the thread called? I see that others have been rude as well. Now lets discuss the topic

Yo I have been a resident of this place since 74. And so think that it is like other places going downhill. HLL has said a few things some of them he needs to rephrase but he has admitted that. He also outlined that this thread was to come up with solutions, not to have a go at each other. He has a right like all of us have a right to speak, we aint self governing their is not government of ED. So please look at the thread and add your comments or if you want start another one. Lets move on dummies
