Are you scared to leave your house?

Are you scared to leave your house?

Apparently, 42% of us are too scared to leave our homes at night due to fear of yobs. A third of people have also called the police to tackle problems with local troublemakers. And 65% think that under-16s shouldn't be allowed out at night.

Are you scared to leave your home? What measures do you think should be taken to resolve this? Should we tackle the parents? Should kids have curfews?

    Not scared so much as prefer to keep out of bother - since I'm middle-aged I don't feel the need to be out late - its just safer staying in, watching TV/ listening to music / surfing the internet / etc, etc, plus I'm not spending money while I'm indoors!

    i worry every time my 16 yr old son goes out the front door. he isnt a yob,doesnt drink or do drugs and wants to join the police .this makes him a prime target for all the idiots who live around here.

    They do it as they get away with it, stand up to them and they will back down, if they attack you charge them if the police will not then do a private action.
    Do the same to the government stand up to them at all levels Local and in the national elections. if they do not do what they are told get them out.
    You the public have the right and the duty to do this take control of this country back to the people who own this country US.
