      Scrolling past, I assumed the title was exaggerating. Watched the video and nope, it’s exactly what happened… goodness gracious.

    2. I don’t suppose this could be one of those moments where they get put in prison for life. You know under his Majesty’s care or however you say it.

      This had to have been a targeted attack against someone? Or maybe the restaurant owners? The motive isn’t clear from the article

      If the Government are changing the law to allow anyone over the age of 16 to vote I’m all in favour of removing the right to anonymity for anyone over the age of 16.

      I’d like to know who they are.

    5. If they’re not found guilty of attempted murder there is something wrong with the British justice system.

      Oh, just arson with intent…

      That’s one of the most horrific things I’ve seen. Hope they get the book thrown at them.

      Lets just be absolutely clear on this situation.

      These ‚teenagers‘ had machetes and set fire to innocent people. Regardless of age, I am all for the removal if these types permanently. There is no rehabilitation possible for these types of people in society, why are we so soft in these situations!

      Anyone remember me arguing about the machete lads having potential for rehabilitation here yesterday?

      Not these lads.

      The knife crime thing has become some weird hypernormalisation type affair that has all sorts of nuances and potential for discussion between opposing views.

      Cannot wrap my head around this, what would posses or psychologically enable someone to do something so recklessly insidious.

      If they’ve got a problem with the business or what ever, even though I’m not saying I agree with the approach, but I can understand how someone might want to burn something down as revenge or business or whatever.

      Why when it’s open and people in there or whatevr? Is this our equivalent of an attempt at a US style mass shooting?

      I don’t know…There’si naive stupid drug dealing, vicious, scornful bitter little bastards with machetes and surrons, and then there’s this – in another league of it’s own entirely.

      Yeah, these teenagers don’t deserve anonymity orders for this shit and the judge should lift it.

      Someone who does this has extreme delinquency that makes them a danger to the public, beyond redemption if you’re consciously setting people on fire.

    10. Sentenced in October. That sentence better be HEAVY. I’m talking 25 years. Arson with intent to endanger life but let’s call it what it is, multiple attempted murders. These kids should be missing a good chunk of their adult lives behind bars.

      Was this gang related or are they just setting fire to random strangers, this is some evil shit.

    12. lowering the voting age to 16 without adjusting the ages of anonymity or anything else are most curious

    13. What the actual heck is *wrong* with people today? This is insanity! Who goes „Oh I’m bored, lets set some people on fire“
      I am….I have no words.

    14. How tf have they only been charged with arson and not attempted murder? And how is a video of someone running out of a restaurant ON FIRE in ENGLAND not all over the news?!

    15. What was the motive?

      If they get anything less that 20 years each then the justice system is truly broken

    16. Uber driver walking up to collect his order is cherry on top, in all seriousness thats attempted murder 10 years at least for all involved, too dangerous.

    17. TheSJDRising on

      Sentencing depends on the judge as we’ve learnt. If it’s that one, they’ll be commended on acting responsibly in court and the judge won’t want to tarnish their whole adult lives for a few moments of negligent thinking. Yeah. You remember that judge.

      Prepare for counsel to put forth mitigation on grounds of their recent ADHD and ASD diagnosis, low IQ and deprived upbringings, resulting in sentences of 15 years, with time spent on remand deducted and automatic release after they’ve served 2/3. So out in 10 or so.

    19. CarrieKetoenail on

      This can’t be real. It just can’t have happened. This is so scary.

    20. The amount of damage teenagers cause just to impress each other is staggering.

    21. Proud_Wallaby on

      Anyone who is capable of doing such an act lacks basic empathy. This was clearly a planned act with intent to cause serious hard and possibly even death. This is a couple of psychopaths.

      Teaching them empathy is very very difficult as their brain is very different. I don’t know how rehabilitated they can become. I think no one should have to find out.
