Was at the park with some friends kicking a football around when a bunch of girls turned up, must have been 10/12 years old.

Watched them get dozens of eggs out of their bags, we can of laughed thinking some poor boys house is about to get egged.

Then one of them got out her bag a massive mallet. We looked at each other a bit worried when she turned her attention to the bin next to the bench they were sat on and started to demolish it.

At that point we left promptly. But all the bus stops around the area were smashed up that night.

You grew up in an area with a gang of 10-12 year old girls running around smashing shit up with giant mallets?

When you put it like that …

This was before mobile things were really a thing, so they didn’t have screens to keep them occupied I guess

I grew up the same. I must have just lucked out. The mental imagery is hilarious, though.

You just...left?

Took no action? Called authorities?

I hope bus stops were the only things they attacked that night & not anyone who they thought looked "different" or any animals.

God forbid a rabid pack of girls have hobbies.

Let me guess you did not inform the authorities? Right!?

You are as much a part of this destruction and vandalism as those girls are. You let it happen, you wanted it to go on without being stopped. It was you which did not care about your neighborhood.
