One thing the riots have shown is that these kids are desperate for attention. We're trying to tell them that you matter most when you vote, that's when politicians have to start listening to you.
Calm has returned but it's a precarious calm. The smallest spark risks an explosion.
If they listen to us it is because we give them what they most want: respect. If you respect them, they respect you.
The more people are afraid, the more they will demand security policies rather than social policies. That is precisely what is not in the interest of these kids.
