I'm not sure it's all the polices fault, I'd imagine a lot of it is to do with 'soft courts'. A lot of police time can be taken up when arresting these yobs, only for them to be back out on the streets in no time.
People say this all the time, and I no longer think it is true, I think the police force attracts the wrong people in the form of recruits and they just don't care about the communities they serve like they used too. AmieB I hope it didn;t have too much effect on your son, I'm sure having to see this kind of thing could be quite scary.
