edatory lope, even when they are engaged on an entirely peaceful errand.
They believe that civility is weakness, or — more importantly — will be taken by their peers as weakness. As for their appearance, the more brutal the better; they want to make it look as if there is no savagery they would not commit.
They are shaven-headed (not just to disguise incipient baldness) and tattooed, and if they have a dog it is a rottweiler or a pitbull. Even harmless and law-abiding young men want to look as though they might attack at any moment. I asked one such man why he wanted to look like this and he replied that it was the only way he could walk the streets where he lived unmolested.
You do not see so many brutal-looking young men anywhere else in the world as in Britain. I have scoured the globe in search of a society that produces so many vicious faces set in hatred against their own existence, but so far have not found one.
Well who knew?…violent young men with short hair cuts and tattoos, rottweilers or pitbulls at their sides, roaming the streets of our cities. And just as we’ve got over the shock of teddy boys. Really, this sort of crap must just write itself for Dalrymple.
For the better side of the man, here’s his alter ego Anthony Daniels on Che Guevara (via ALDaily).
