Re: Bardot of Barking ment Jamacan Yardies are cool, but I never think Gangsters are cool.
I didn't mean Yardies are cool! God, no! They are v. v. v. violent, a scourge upon East London. My cousin works for East London Murder Squad and her job consists mostly of cleaning up their mess. Three years ago I was living with her and she would bring home nasty photos of their handiwork to show me. She said while their m.o. was to wipe out other gang members, innocent people in Hackney were always getting caught up in it.
But when I lived in the suburbs there were a lot of silly little boys who used to aspire to that kind of lifestyle. Probably because they had never and would never come into contact with the kind of images that my cousin showed me.
