I wear hoodies to make me feel warm, I understand what your saying and that the press makes it clear that some people wearing chavy clothes are violent, but i just dont like it, how Im walking down the street and everyone looks at me, so everytime someone does that, I would just walk passed them and say Hi. I do that alot now.

I'm not saying that everyone who wears hoodies is a thug, I'm saying that the media seem to have constructed it that way, and therefore a lot of people believe it now.

I don't blame the media, they post a photo of someone, say what they did, and that's that. The majority of these people happen to dress the way they do, that's all. The papers don't say PEOPLE WHO WEAR HOODS ARE KILLERS [cont. p7]. It's the people who read them's faults for taking it all in and not bothering to meet young people and make their own opinions
