@@gordonmckee357 what does using emojis have to do with it?? That's like me judging you for not being able to spell or using poor grammar. The problem with posts like this is everyone hails these gangsters as heroes. Typical reaction from a Lad Bible follower. Someone shows a little remorse and you hail them as heroes, just cos they wear a fancy suit ;). Just like the Bobby lad from London. He killed and maimed people and the last time I checked, that was against the law. Hundreds of years ago people were brutally executed in public, for doing much less. I'm not saying these blokes deserve that but the way you raise them up is indicative of this topsy turvy world we live in. He chose crime, he harmed people. Too right he should be giving up his time to help others, but he should have spent more time behind bars in my opinion. The only way this guy is a good role model is if he helps others to live a life totally different. No doubt Lad Bible will remove my comments, just like the last ones. Bit too controversial for them probably and not following like a sheep.

This is why when you meet people of his generation from Glasgow you show respect. Times have changed since then in the city but their generation was forged by sectarian violence, hard industrial labour, poor living conditions, brutal police, gangs and organised crime. How Glasgow has grown and become, in my opinion, the best city in the world is just amazing.

British bloke here. I went out with a girl from Easterhouse for seven years. Her family were lovely but if I say 'no nonsense types' you get it. I will never forget the first time I spent a week up there. We stayed with her sister and brother in-law. When the clock struck ten he said... "A... Reeet... Pub!" So we both walked the half a mile to the pub, where I noticed that every other house had either been either torched or boarded-up. When we arrived at the pub (metal-covered windows) he stood on the step, turned to me and said: "Just relax... but din open yer Mut ... cuz if someone hears your English... yill get slit!" 🧐 I really wanted a packet of crisps with my beer... But was too scared to ask!!! 😂🤣😂 My week there was more terrifying than driving across North Africa. 🤣😂

@@wboyle9721 Please don't misunderstand me, I don't have an axe to grind with Glaswegians (no pun intended,), I just wanted to share a resounding memory of my first week there! That same week, I was sitting in a restaurant eating a delicious deep-fried Mars Bar (kidding), no but I was sitting in a city-centre cafe eating breakfast with Senga (my girlfriend) and a homeless beggar walked in and without any shame held out his hand and asked: "Got any money mate?" "No mate" I said! "Then how you gonna pay fur ya f@#@#@g fud?" He asked? Can't argue with that!!! Also, please be aware, this wasn't a story from between the wars, the air wasn't thick with the steam from the trains, this was 1994! On the way back on the train, a Glaswegian guy from a submarine base plonked himself down between me and my girlfriend and asked me if I wanted a fight? I told him that I could kill a man in my bare feet, so if he could wait five minutes whilst I removed my shoes..... He laughed and left...... I will stop there.... I make armour as a career now, for cinema and museums etc,, and I honestly think that my trips to Glasgow are one of the reasons I do!!!! 💪⚔️⚒️ Best wishes to you, and please give my love to Scotland. 🌞

I don't think it's youngsters genuinely thinking this kind of life is "cool" I think it's more to do with what they perceive as being easy money and also when your young thinking ahead for a lot of them isn't an easy thing to do, that's why having an older mentor of some sort, whether it's a family member or just someone you know is so important. I didn't have a decent mentor and wasted a lot of years of my life-im not going into details but it took a lot of years and self reflection until I got my life together, now im nearly 39 and in a good place. I just wish so much I'd had an older mentor who I respected because the criminal life wasn't about being "cool" for USA, it really was just about finding easy money-or what I thought was easy money, looking back it wasn't easy at all

With little time spent with their teenage kids its just "do this or you're grounded" or told "go to college and get a trade" though that is golden advice, you need to teach from every single angle as to why this life is better than having too much fun after highschool. If I have kids one day, I'm taking my son to work as much as I can, I'm teaching my daughter what a good man should act like.

About 1975 I was a junior seaman docked in Glasgow, about 16 years old at the time was not very world-wise. Went into a bar and had a wad of cash after 3 months at sea, bought a pint then a woman came up and started talking, she said I needed to get out fast as there was a bunch of lads aiming to cut me up and take my wallet. Slipped out the back and we both hopped into a taxi and went back to my ship. We spent the rest of the weekend in my cabin with a couple bottles of whiskey. Can't remember her name now but I guess I can thank her for not having a similar scar.

@Lindy T Yes I agree. Plenty of examples. I never said that wasn’t. What I will say is there are plenty of examples also where it doesn’t automatically give you the ‘I can be asshole to you/go down a criminal route’ card - for both sexes, I’m not advocating for either or. What I mean is both have plenty evidence of issues. I mean it doesn’t take a scientist or psychologist to work that out, it’s just common sense. However, there are plenty who haven’t had either or and channel that ‘missing part’ in something positive. We all have choices. However I notice you picked women as hurting ‘themselves’ and men on ‘others’. That’s a complete simplification from perspective. Both display introvertly and externally on others dependant on a wide array of situations in and out of their control so I’m not sure why you think that as it’s a very shallow/ignorant conclusion with respect. Take care TLTR: Don’t use it as an excuse to be a dick to others and/or a get out of jail free card for your behaviour. Be self aware of your actions is all it takes and learning to let go. Simple rule of life - don’t be a dick 🤷

@Allegro_Giusto
@Allegro_Giusto 2 года назад
@@jamesi2018 There some truths in that too. Toxic femininity towards the father and men as an after thought can push the child towards having an inner anger unknowingly and unaware of where it came from. You see that a lot in broken relationships it’s ridiculous and selfish, no matter if they were right or wrong, it usually only has bad repercussions on the child’s behaviour in society.

My Dad grew up in post-WAR Springburn, I think like his parents most of them who could back in those days buggered off to the new towns or emigrated to places like Canada. In saying that, although the new towns weren't quite as rough as the schemes in Glasgow, they weren't without their problems either. I didn't grow up in a particularly rough housing scheme, but before the age of 18 I'd encountered quite a lot of violence, three notable incidents I can recall are: escaping multiple stabbings and having to have half my nose stitched up after I was bottled in a case of mistaken identity, and accidentally slicing off someone's earlobe in a gang fight that escalated and got seriously out of hand. I think most working-class Scottish kids that ran in Young Teams or flirted with criminality have similar stories (and the scars) but very, very few of them ever graduated from this to being out and out gangsters. Most of them grew up, found jobs, started families and became fully functional members of society.
