What the hell is going on..?

I refer to the two stories on the home page about the recent incident outside Boston Park involving youths attacking Police and the even  more worrying one about a group of young thugs attacking three people who challenged them about vandalising cars in Twicjkenham. What would make a man stamp on a woman's head whilst she was unconscious on the ground after being knocked down? 30 months (probably 15 in reality) hardly seems enough for what I would call attempted murder.The mind boggles as to where we will be in 20 years time..

Indeed,Susan. I am just left gobsmacked that a man (I use the word loosely in this case) could stamp on a prone woman's head. Someone once said something to the effect that all violence stems from shame.In this case let's hope it's led to remorse and introspection.

I agree that the sentence is inadequate for the crime. And what is the point of other terms to run concurrently?
