Read what I wrote again. No-one accused you of being middleclass.

Who says i'm a middle class kid? You're basing your judgement on me by presuming i'm middle class. Am i not entitled to an opinion? Now who's being prejudice?

I'm not giving them justification. I'm just highlighting the loss of community within our society. But hey, you'll find out for yourself when one of your kids grows up and is denied fireworks by a Warhunt in ASDA.

I wear a hood and have short hair. Do I create these problems for society? So no, it isn't completely true Chris.

Because a middle class kid has never blown off half his face with a firework? You guys seem to be content advocating discrimination against groups from up there on your high horses. Talk about firework legisation instead, your warped sense of justice is ridiculous.

Sorry mate,going to have to disagree with you on that one.Everyone has a choice in life and there are no excuses.If someone P'd me off would I light a firework and throw it through their letterbox ?.......no I wouldn't.Prejudice against race,sexuality,disability etc. is totally out of order IMO but this argument seems a little different to me.Guys on here seem to be talking about prejudice against groups who make others lives a misery (Chav's.Hoodie brigade and the like).I have heard these characters bleat on about their rights,what about the rights of the people who's lives they effect ?.Anyway,whats going on here tonight,its like Jeremy Kyle has taken over the forum !.

But Warhunt hasn't created the stereotypes. It's not stereotypical, it's true. I'm sorry, if somebody is wearing a hood, and it's not very cold or raining, i'll automatically think they're up to no good. I say it's not stereotypical because you can't stereotype if it's completely true. I would never sell a firework to a skinhead wearing a hoody with a gang of mates around him, because to be honest, i care more for my personal guilt, because if they injure or kill somebody with them, i'm going to feel aweful. So screw being stereotypical, if a scall wants to buy a firework, then he should've done better in school.

My morale is pretty low now I've read that.
If you meant morals, then I thought we were trying to get past that stage in society where we judge people by their appearance. Or is equality not a part of society's morals?

Fair enough Warhunt, we each have our own family's traditions, and fair play on breaking the law- for the right reasons of course ;D But nobody can hold it against families who have been on the bad end of a firework wanting them banned.
