After watching Michael Caine's movie, Harry Brown, one comes to the conclusion that all over the world,controlling crime is a huge challenge. In the movie, Harry's friend -an old pensioner was battered and stabbed to death by youths in the slummy complex where he was forced to live. The police treated it with the usual apathy. Retired RAF Harry Brown who served in Ireland turns vigilante which catches the attention of the police who, assuming this to be gang violence, quickly respond with anti-crime operations. This causes the yobs to start violently rioting, resulting in brutal battering of some law-enforcement members. When Harry is exposed, his exposer questions his motive saying "this isn't Ireland, Harry" he replies - "At least in Ireland they were fighting for a cause - this... to them - this is just entertainment." <br />Getting off the point a little there but what I really think is- rather suffer the indignation of mistaken identity by a vigilant police force than live with the sad lethargy that the law enforcers of today approach their work. Hope your son is doing OK now.Berachahhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02472560906350796768noreply@blogger.com
