I’m having a great day for spotting things that make me laugh

Just been checking out PRISON PHOTOGRAPHY where Pete Brook should get an award for his comparison between American and British criminals. Having worked in a prison all I can say is ‘NO COMMENT’.

In America there are gangsta’s, crack heads and wild kids. In Britain there thugs, scallies and pill-poppers – these are broad categories and don’t describe much, but my effort is to say that the two countries have different types of criminal. It is my feeling that the extreme inequalities of American cities breed a certain type of hardened criminal, whereas Britain’s subtler inequalities breed a certain type of hardened idiot.
