This is what the local rogues were riding around on in Wythenshawe when I was a kid. Not as nice as this example, maybe ... but they never wore balaclavas or deal drugs.

You were lucky if you could find two wheels the same size too mate, the only new thing on a bike usually was the inner tube, if you were really feeling a bit arty banging some insulation tape around the handles if you couldn't afford those grippy ones made of gel.

Nice story mate.
Can you finish it by telling us why it finished after 18 months ?

We were both young at the time, when we finished I was just turned 18 ,and she had her 17th birthday a couple of months later.
She wanted to get engaged and although I agreed with her, I honestly thought I was much too young to be tying myself down for the rest of my life.
We split and I was happy to be going on nights out with my mates,but after a couple of months I wanted to go back out with her,but she already had a new boyfriend by then.
Amazing in this modern day and age, but the only way I could get in touch with her then was to write a letter to her,as her mum and dad had no phone at home.
After writing about 6 letters to her I eventually gave up and got on with my life.
She used to call in to The Olde Boars Head in Middleton,as I worked there 3 evenings a week in 74/75, mainly to give me back items of clothing I had left at her house.
Fast forward 30 years and we became friends on Facebook. And it turns out that she was a nursing sister at North Manchester hospital, and her boss was the mother of my middle daughters best friend. As the saying goes, it's a small world.

Did you ask her why the fuck didn’t she reply to your 6 letters?

A guy named as Terrence Walker (aged 59) has been charged with the murder of the murder of the little scrote with the machete.

Hopefully that will get downgraded to manslaughter so he has some kind of life after whatever sentence he gets. That said, the video isn’t going to do him much good.

Yeah just seen the video, probably wont help him.

Your kid gets threatened with a machete though, I feel like that has to be taken into consideration.

Yeah. It’s a tough one. If it’s happened immediately after then the rage is understandable. It’s hard to gauge as people are saying there is a gap of a few days, and if that’s the case then he’s in a world of trouble.

For me? If the little **** hadn’t gone to steal something by force, he wouldn’t be a puddle of blood and the fella would still be free, living a normal life like her was on Monday.

It is all a really horrible reminder of how things can go south really quickly.

Absolutely all it takes is a moment of rage and as you rightly say your whole life can be turned upside down.

I imagine the lad attacked come home not looking good and the dad has seen red.

Lives ruined all around, some lives probably heading that way anyway but some ruined in moments of rage.
 
Tragic, as these things always are.
15 year old kids. Who buys or allows their offspring to own/posess/ride these bikes around. Who buys them the outfits, the "uniform" and thinks it's acceptable for these little shits to be part of this?
Appreciate there's a huge societal problem unfolding here, but who's parenting these feral cunts?
Seems to get progressively worse as each generation passes, with generations procreating at double speed.
I know, I know, I'm just an old out-of-touch ****...
 
It's a difficult case where on one hand the courts cannot be- seen to be condoning vigilante behaviour - yet at the same time, had the parent of the kid attacked not taken immediate action, the chances are the scrote involved would not have been caught and dealt with through the criminal justice system and would have carried on being a **** and terrorising other members of the community.

It's like that case with the bloke in the rural farm, who shot an intruder in the back (in the dark) who had entered his house. Public opinion swung very heavily in his favour as if the twat hadn't broke into his house he'd still be alive today. Yet the court couldn't simply brush the incident under the carpet as after all, a member of the public - yes even a scruffy smelly scrote - had been shot dead.
 
I’ve read a few things online suggesting that the videos knocking about (one of the kid being robbed of his bike by a kid with a machete) and the video posted above of the car hitting the kid on the bike, are 2 separate incidents, a few days apart, involving different people - which have been posted together to make it seem as though they are both related to the 15 year old who has died

I don’t know whether this is true or not, but I wouldn’t be surprised either way

If a 15 year old is swinging round a machete to rob a bike in broad daylight light in the middle of the street at this stage of his life. What criminal activities will he be migrating to when he gets older and how many members of the public will be put of risk because of it?

If the gentleman in the car who hit him had decided on staying on the right side of the law and reported it to the police there’s every chance the kid wouldn’t get caught. If they did catch him it might be a period of time inside a young offenders institute to be then back out doing the same thing posing the same threat to the public. The law doesn’t solve the problem here unfortunately, someone taking actions into their own hands and losing their freedom for a considerable period of time has.
 
So let's be clear, the machete robbery and the killing of the child on scooter are NOT connected. One was a week earlier. The lad punched a kid to nick his bike and the dad saw red and smashed him with a car.

This thread is a sorry state. Dead kid.
