Maybe This Is The Same Bunch, They've Just All Grown Up?

Cast your mind back to this story from 2010.

Then jump forward to the present:
A man in his 20s was stabbed at court today by a gang of masked youths in a suspected revenge attack.
The victim saw the gang jump out of a car as he was leaving Inner London Crown Court and tried to run back inside but got stuck in the revolving door.
They knifed him in the stomach in front of security and then fled, while police and the London Ambulance Service treated him on the floor of the security hall.
Right outside a court, eh? Good lord, is nothing sacred?
The stabbing may have been a revenge attack after a rival gang member was targeted in a hospital in 2011.
Describing the original attack, the source said: 'They were literally going from ward to ward and pulling back curtains looking for somebody.
'The kid they were looking for had already been stabbed in the eye but I guess they hadn't finished him off properly so they broke into the hospital to get him - but when they couldn't find him they stabbed someone else.
'It's crazy. If they can stab someone in a hospital it's not a big deal for them to come to court and stab someone. It's kudos for them if they're not afraid to do that.'
Well, what have they got to fear, after all? Our justice system?

It is to laugh...

Oh, hang the anarchy.

We are fools to pay plod for nought when there are better contacts for ensuring the return of say, stolen goods. Regrettably, they are the type to instruct when you want things done.

Melvin, did Fat Tony get you your lawnmower back? Did he kiss you on both cheeks and make you an offer you couldn't refuse?
Give the laptop back to the nurse and retire to the staring window.

If it's gang war then perhaps society needs to prove that it's the hardest kid on the block and send a message to them.

So perhaps when these "gangstas" are caught we should just shoot them and hang the bodies from tower bridge as a message to others.

Stabbed in front of security staff who didnt and couldnt have done anything because whats an unarmed guy going to do against a knife wielding gang?
There is no such thing as unarmed security,they`re just potential victims as well.

Police are trying to identify the latest attackers from CCTV footage captured of the assault.

Given the numbers of 'gang members' involved and the length of time this feud has been running; I'll wager the cops know exactly who to look for.

Police cars littered the court car park while the man was treated for his injuries.

No rush boys. Take your time. I'm sure it was a very complex crime scene and a large area that needed securing. Perhaps you should close the M74, just to be sure. I mean, it's not like you have anything more important to do right now.

And other things, as even 14 year old girls know...

"So perhaps when these "gangstas" are caught we should just shoot them and hang the bodies from tower bridge as a message to others."

I'm all for that!

A depressing thought...
