#1 That's real cowardice, the police chief leaving because some youths sat on a wall outside his home, and he's "Afraid to confront them".

Fire his ass.

#2 Is Britain a sovereign nation?

No.

It does not have control of its borders, it is not the supreme law of the land, it will soon not have a foreign policy. It is now but a province of the major nation in Europe, the EU. Get over it.

#3 The Metropolitan Police high-flyer, who will earn about £70,000 a year, said: "I gave in to them because it was either that or start challenging them.

So what happens when you don't have the choice anymore there, Supt? Guess that'll be rollover and die time?
They're paying £70,000 for this guy to supervise the people that are supposed to protect them and he won't even try to protect himself?Unfuckinbelievable...

#4 IT IS always a temptation to an armed and agile nation,
To call upon a neighbour and to say:â
âWe invaded you last nightâwe are quite prepared to fight,
Unless you pay us cash to go away.â

And that is called asking for Dane-geld,
And the people who ask it explain
That youâve only to pay âem the Dane-geld
And then youâll get rid of the Dane!

It is always a temptation to a rich and lazy nation,
To puff and look important and to say:â
âThough we know we should defeat you, we have not the time to meet you.
We will therefore pay you cash to go away.â

And that is called paying the Dane-geld;
But weâve proved it again and again,
That if once you have paid him the Dane-geld
You never get rid of the Dane.

It is wrong to put temptation in the path of any nation,
For fear they should succumb and go astray,
So when you are requested to pay up or be molested,
You will find it better policy to say:â

âWe never pay any-one Dane-geld,
No matter how trifling the cost;
For the end of that game is oppression and shame,
And the nation that plays it is lost!â

- Rudyard Kipling

#5 IF you don't want to confront them then play classical music or something else that will drive them away without necessarily provoking them.

Either that or get one of those subsonic sound things that are supposedly useful for driving off youths.

Lastly and most obviously have some of the cops from work pick him up in front of his house once in a while. Most youths are not gonna feel comfortable hanging around an area that has a lot of cops showing up.

Since he didn't try any of the above he should have retired long ago.
