SNIPPED….
Honestly – sometimes I despair – it certainly shows that some people do not actually understand that with rights come responsibilities. A big problem in society today is that people don’t understand that.

This is bang on. The judgement of somebody being responsible also crosses the very right to be free.
Example, when the thieving gypo(1) tinkers set up their site in a field 4 miles from me, I wanted to march down the road with a banner saying “Run the Pikey chav travellers out of town.” A posse would soon have joined me as nobody wants them in their town. I have the right to do that, but I’m responsible enough not to do it. And, those pikey types are big hard basads with fists like a suitcase and no law they care about to answer!
We got the usual Court order and 5 day wait. They moved on to bother other townsfolk, and left our hamlet with some unsolved thefts (It may well have been opportunists from locally, knowing the pikey’s would get the blame – however the affect of them setting up camp brings the opportunity).

(1) Gypo is the modern derogatory name used for the travelling tinkers. It is not meant to be derogatory towards the Romany people/ Egyptian descent known as Gypsy, who are in general a law abiding honest race.
