'Via CentreRight, we learn of Blackburn magistrate Austin Molloy, who doesn't mince words:Sometimes I despair of this bloody country.It was a disgusting crime: two 16-year olds wrote racist and obscene graffiti on prayer books in Blackburn cathedral and bent out of shape a "priceless" cross. Fortunately for the police, the morons also chose to write their names in the Cathedral visitors' book and were thus caught and convicted. [...]
In this case the Chairman of the Magistrates - Austin Molloy - came up with the perfect summation: "Normal people would consider you absolute scum."
Concise and to the point. Suitable punishment was swiftly meted out - to Mr Molloy, who has been suspended for his comments, and now faces disciplinary action.The court clerk challenged Mr Molloy in open court, saying he had used "inappropriate language".
She then encouraged one of the boys mothers to go ahead with her plans to make an official complaint.'

Only "sometimes" ? !
It all starts at school. Teachers mustn't say anything nasty to the little dears & they learn that they don't actually have to obey the school rules because no-one can do anything about it, and it continues from there.
A teacher friend was formally reprimanded for "shouting at a child and making him feel inferior" after the parents complained.
Unfortunately, none of my old teachers are likely to still be alive, otherwise presumably I could sue for a fortune!
