    Toxic Masculinity

    Is not dead yet

    CCTV shows joyriders crashing stolen bus
    A bus was written off by two drunk teenage joyriders who stole the vehicle, drove it nine miles and then crashed it.

    A CCTV camera recorded Harry Atley, 19, and Thomas Bloomfield, 18, shouting and swearing as they drove it from Tetbury in Gloucestershire to Malmesbury in Wiltshire, last November.

    The pair were given suspended sentences and banned from driving for two years at Bristol Crown Court.
    What sort of world are we living in when I feel relieved at seeing this kind of thing?

        What you on about "toxic masculinity"?

        This is kids getting drunk, being idiots, and putting themselves and others in danger. Always has gone on, always will.

        Methinks you're getting a little too hung up on your agenda, but if you think it deserves celebrating, then you go right ahead.

          I agree with you.

          there is nothing masculine about being a dick head.

          it's pretty toxic though.

          Main problem is if they had crashed and killed themselves the community would have been all like '' ooh they were such good boys'

          why do you never get someone screen saying 'actually they were a bunch of little tulips whose parents didn't care and quite frankly this community is better now they are dead'

          would be nice to see this sort of honesty ever now and then.

            When you say that their Fellow scumbags "community" pop round to your house and cover it in flowers, if you dare remove them then the police accuse you of causing trouble, if you are lucky they don't make the funeral procession run down your street.

            Unfortunately their friends & family approve of their actions & support them. I'm all for finding an island and moving people like this there. Come back in 500 years and see if they are all dead or actually founded a successful society.
            Always forgive your enemies; nothing annoys them so much.

              WTF! how do you know the parents don't care? How do you know they aren't generally good lads. Me and my mates at that age got up to lots of similar things. My parents were very strict, I was a good boy scout, and now on remembrance day I get to stand at the local cenotaph with a respectable amount of bling attached. You, Sir, are talking out of your posterior.

                  A world (actually country) that has too many (1) cretins, of which you are a prime example and (2) useless scrotes.
