Vandalism Video on You-tube
I was told this week of a group of teenagers who smashed up a Burger-King and put a video of their vandalism on You-tube.I am no fan of fast food restaurants but this kind of action is unacceptable. Its wrong to destroy the property of the restaurant and cause fear and terror amongst the staff and customers. Its wrong because once again young people get portrayed as mindless hooligans, and if you tell me, "well folk will know its only a few", the trouble is the good actions of the many won’t make the headlines.It also undermines the integrity of You-tube which is a very democratic telling of modern day life but when its used to glorify this kind of vandalism, it gives it an unearned validity,I just wonder who the role models were who taught these young people that such actions were acceptable?
