Education and persuasion takes a long time to work.
Some tube stations used to be a nightmare at times for muggers.
In fact before there were cameras everywhere i remember much more knife crime, the difference then was that there was also squats, drugs and street prostitution everywhere as well, bizarrely it is going full circle (except squats of course).

I know that times have changed, and i am acutely aware of crime in our area, but that was a genuine shock and had that transpired would have a been a lead national news story for days. Pretty sorry state of affairs that once that element of the story has gone, that 14 year olds stabbing 14 year olds is just another of many London stories for the year. Normalised, when it is absolutely not normal.
