Put Them In Their Place

Popularity

This is the 48th most popular campaign

My idea is to do with discrimination amongst young people today. More and more younger people are becoming discriminating and is fueling a lot of trouble on the streets I think that kids these days are becoming more hate-filled towards people who are different to themselves. I have witnessed horrible attacks, both verbally and physically, where groups of young people have made it their duty to 'put them in their place' and I feel that it is out of hand because it causes a lot of the street violence we see today. I have also been a victim of discrimination, so i know how degrading it can be when an individual is degraded because of their race, sexuality or the way they dress. I would like to have a legislation passed that would allow people to live without the fear of being victimised by these ignorant and abusive indiviuals.
