| | | Dan Radcliffe supports Britain’s youth
Dan Radcliffe has spoken out against recent statements made by politicians in the press that blame increases in crime levels on British teens and describe them as “hoody-wearing criminals.” Quote:
That hoody stuff is a lot of c**p, isn't it? By having a go at the kids, the blame is wrongly apportioned. Being a teenager is not about violence.

wow, that's very deep, I think if a famous person is worried about that it's a very serious problem

I completely agree with Dan pertaining to the "hoody" comment. I don't really know much else about the issue so I'll just leave it there.

That is deep, if a celebrity would worry about things that some people would never even think of. I don't think people would say that's a serious problem.

| Totally agree with Dan. It's great that he's spoken about it. What Dan thinks is more important than any politician. |

Hogwarts RPG Name: Emmett Crosston First Year | Thank goodness someone with influence who is a teenager has spoken out about that complete rubbish. Thanks to a small minority of teenagers it's pretty much impossible to be a teenager in the UK these days without having someone breathing down the back of your neck!

| Go Dan! You tell them!
It's true though. Parents and adults often tend to think the worst of their children and teenagers in general. We aren't nearly as violent as you think nor are we as pessimistic, ignorant, or stupid.
The minority is often paid more attention to because they attract more attention. Those are the people you should be worrying about. We aren't all like that. |

that is good that he is outspoken about things that are meaningful to him. And he certainly picked a good thing to speak out about.
