People feel safe being part of a group but the reality is that these individuals are extremely insecure and lost without direction. While I don&amp;#39;t advocate gangs and their behaviour at all, let&amp;#39;s not forget what the root cause of this is: deprivation and poverty. So, until we start addressing this, and I am unable to offer any solutions as to how to go about it, it will always be a problem societies have to face, just as it has been for generations. The division between poor and rich (or poor and poorer - depending how you want to see it) will only ever get wider,&amp;nbsp;and the problem only bigger. Its a real tough one to turn around. You begin to see the appeal of communism as an ideology although one that sadly could never work, as we have seen in countless nations.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Simon.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;div style="clear:both;"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</description></item><item><title>Re: A quick Saturday morning laugh...</title><link>https://archivedforum.beoworld.org:443/forums/thread/56944.aspx</link><pubDate>Sat, 20 Oct 2007 13:44:26 GMT</pubDate><guid isPermaLink="false">41a2a90c-3a1e-4bd3-b144-3883695a7f38:56944</guid><dc:creator>The Beonic Man</dc:creator><slash:comments>0</slash:comments><comments>https://archivedforum.beoworld.org:443/forums/thread/56944.aspx</comments><wfw:commentRss>https://archivedforum.beoworld.org:443/forums/commentrss.aspx?SectionID=13&amp;PostID=56944</wfw:commentRss><description>&lt;BLOCKQUOTE&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;img src="http://forum.beoworld.org/Themes/default/images/icon-quote.gif"&gt; &lt;strong&gt;beocool:&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt; &lt;p&gt;Hi Simon,&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;You are not related, by any chance??? &lt;img src="http://forum.beoworld.org/emoticons/58.gif" alt="Laughing" /&gt;&lt;img src="http://forum.beoworld.org/emoticons/58.gif" alt="Laughing" /&gt;&lt;img src="http://forum.beoworld.org/emoticons/58.gif" alt="Laughing" /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/BLOCKQUOTE&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Be&amp;#39;o&amp;#39;cool man!
