Yeah it's a heartbreaking event, but even though I'm glad that the police have got hold of a lad, it really is too little too late. This man had his life ruined by a bunch of Chav who think it perfectly acceptable to treat a fellow human being as garbage.
As the younger got older there was another fleet of fresh faces who, watching what the their elders had been doing, found it more than acceptable to take up their mantel. This is a complete and utter failure of community and not only by the public who stood by and let it happen, but by the authorities who deemed it unworthy of their attention.
It trully hurts me to think we can act like this toward each other without remorse. His death will have not have changed one of them...
