PETER HITCHENS: We can't defend people in their own homes, so why posture as a great power?

www.dailymail.co.uk, June 3, 2023
PT HITCHENS: These are all parts of the country where home-owners feel it is impossible to challenge these street gangs, unlike Angela Flynn's case, where a group of children was threatening a bicycle in a suburb of Gillingham, Kent, who was as young as ten years old, was threatening them. After posting an angry post on Facebook, it was surprising that the majority of the reports of this incident concerned her husband, Michael, who was suspended from his school work. Many people will find this unfair. But it's also bewildering to me that his suspected online misdeed was swiftly and harshly punished. On the other hand, we can be fairly certain that the miniature louts will have no long-term effects.
