    That doesn't stop them unfortunately. They can use masks are enter the building from a direction camera's don't point. Last time they just smashed their way through a wall to avoid the security. And the police will always have an excuse. And even with photographic evidence, they are not going to raid the Pikey camp. The law doesn't apply to politicians, pikey's and policemen.

    Anyway if it'anot one thing it's another round here. Currently my library is on fire.

    @Xexima, 16 is an adult here, 15 is a minor.

    Hmmm... Start paying them protection money? :P

    I couldn't help but laugh my arse off at that... Library... Fire... I'd kill for that to happen here... And not just because the head librarian is a feministic b*tch. Arson, or what?

    @Xexima, 16 is an adult here, 15 is a minor.

    Hmmm... Not sure I agree entirely here. At 16 you still legally must have a primary guardian. You're not free to go on college trips without their signed consent, nor are you free to move out without social services being involved... By law at 16 you don't have all of the priviledges you would expect with adulthood (the right to drink/vote/be a politician/drive/etc)... In some regards 16 is in an adult, but I'll be damned if us 16 year olds are ever treated as such....

    At 16 your an adult. You go to adult prison. You can work and get a job and get married and leave home.etc.

    No Arson here. Chimney fire. I caught it just as all the oak panelling burst into flames. The whole house smells of aromatic wood.

    As for paying protection money? With what? I think Tony Martin had the right idea. When it's not important, you can back down or let people push you around. But when it's important or when they back you into a corner, you have to take a stand. 

    Prison won't kill me. And I don't think I'd even go.

    It will end violently, or as is more likely just continue as it is. I never see them and the odds are I never will.

    Depends what area you're in. A lot of areas have prisons for those 16-21, and then seperate ones for 21+ as far as I know... At least, that's what I've understood from all this talk of Youth Detention Centres/Prisons... You can't get married without parental permission, nor can you leave home. Your parents/guardians are still responsible for you, and you still by law have to rely on them for permissions and things. I'd say you're only an adult when you don't have to have a parent/guardian to do anything.
