I can't believe the anti-male bigotry of this Telegraph article.  I
quote:

Hey Home Office, I've got your classification hanging right here!

Honest to God, one can understand when they bash men, but when they go
after teen boys, that's too much.

I'll second that.  There were once people who would teach these boys to
lead non-violent, productive lives.  They were called _fathers_.  Now
they have their redoubtable "working mothers," her parade of
boyfriends, and the anti-male sexist teachers with whom they spend most
of their time.  Dad may be allowed to visit twice per month, if the kid
is lucky.

So, of course, the Telegraph is shocked and amazed when such boys don't
develop into productive men, and instead of thinking how they might
help these troubled youths, they just accuse, blame, and bash.

"Accuse, blame, and bash.  It's a wonder you don't burn crosses on our
lawns."
