Comment | I lived through some of this. Anybody who idolises it was not there or is a fucking moron.
The failure is the same then as it was now. Have a large group of people grow up in squalled conditions with no hope of a better life and then you get addiction, violence and despair. The great pity is that they take it out on themselves and those around them.
Give them some hope, a decent education and a fair chance and things are a lot different. |
