Seriously is this a Scotland wide thing or just Fife? Kids every day setting fires, smashing buses, raiding shops. No parents in sight , polis can’t do fuck all either . Mayhem. A generation of degenerates being raised .

  2. That’s what happens when most of the nation are too soft and fail to discipline kids properly.

  3. Kids have always been feral and shit like this has always gone down, we just hear about it more (and immediately) due to everyone having a camera, the Internet and social media in their pocket and can post it as it happens.

    The world isn’t a worse place than it used to be, it’s now just more exposed than it used to be.

  4. It breaks my heart that the rare ground nesting birds are getting wiped out, not to mention the poor fire service trying to put them out.

  5. They’ve seen the previous generations fucking the planet and want to get in on the action before it’s too late.

  6. It’s not new.

    Setting fire ower the pa to KS, or doon the wids, or up the miss, was an every other week event in the 70s

  8. We threw tins of beans on bonfires in the 80s. Scatter!

  9. Walking adverts for contraception to be added to the water

  10. Why is this a thing? There seems to be fires all over the place now!
    Get the little buggers and beat them with a shitty stick

  11. Parents aren’t taking responsibility for their kids. That’s really all it is

  13. Bams have been lighting up the hills for generations, it usually stops for a while when one or two of them die after they get trapped by their own fires. It just takes a wee bit of wind and the flames spread faster than they can run.

  15. Same thing happened here in Warrington twice in the past week, probably more considering the fire engine that screamed past my house a few minutes ago. It’s due to start raining again on Monday so that will hopefully put them off

  16. From the east end of glasgow it’s nothing new, just more prevalent and maybe more extreme.

    One of my earliest memories of being on a bus was the windows being panned in and a brick hitting a passenger.

    Also guilty of being a firebug when I was an early teen.

  17. Not just the kids at it. I saw a full grown man setting fire to the grass when I was out walking down my wee bit of glen last week. He’s been all over it this week. Burnt bits everywhere.

  18. Lack of consequences and apathy from the police. That’s what.

  19. Was a belter in Cumbernauld last night, which is still going now. There have always been wee shits, I was one tbh, but it seems like a majority of kids nowadays are in that bracket. I don’t buy the excuse that there’s nothing for them to do nowadays. They seem to have everything but still act like wee bams. If we had a fitba, we would have been out from 8am until 9pm kicking it about … the problem was when we didn’t have a ball or anything.

  20. Bus attacks are the talk of my local paper

    Like OP says, cops seem powerless

    I don’t want 14 year-olds locked up for the rest of their lives

    And kids have always been wee cunts

    But this is not a sign of a healthy society

  21. They’ve worked out they’ve got no future because their parents and grandparents refused to change their lifestyles and used everything up.

  24. I know it’s not what folk want to hear but this is more than just boredom/lack of youth clubs. The parents are neglecting their children and that’s probably because they are working too many jobs to be able to supervise effectively and/or are busy looking after elderly or infirm relatives that the council can’t deal with.

    Economic downturns are almost always accompanied by a reduction in community policing and an increase in antisocial behaviour from children. We can demonise the parents as much as we like but in the end, time = money and nobody’s got time for the weans.

  25. Has it been confirmed to be wee dicks responsible for fire starting?

    Lots of things can start a wildfire.

  28. There was some cunts setting a big fire next to the scrappies after it was all shut and everyone was gone as well today.

  29. A lot of fires lately in Aberdeen. Apparently a social media trend!

  30. Grew up in Greenock in the 2000’s and 2010’s and there was always fires on the hills on nice days. And abandoned buildings. Once they were empty it was always an inevitability that they would go on fire. Had a series of flats infront of our house get emptied, they were regularly set alight many times before being knocked down.

  31. This shit happened in my area growing up, fires were set regularly albeit not to this extent and i turned out alright. Out of my friend group of 20 only 15 are in jail

  35. Fife Jammers is a massive bag of fearmongering shite. They’re acting like it’s twinned with the deepest part of Compton

  36. Wales too. The Brecon beacons and black mountains have had loads of grass/fern fires.

  38. Same in Wales. Starting to think it’s a tiktok trend

  39. There are always going to be people who love fire, even more so when you are young and more likely to get away with it.

    Locally it doesn’t feel like this is more common nowadays.

  40. NOTHING will be done to make any meaningful difference in Scotland. This will only get worse. Not enough constituents here to constitute WM to invest.
