Egg mum has a recipe for hate

A gang of scumbags who pelted a disabled woman with eggs and flour and then took photographs of her have asked police for protection for fear of reprisals.

Footage of the boys jeering at the poor woman as she cowered on a park bench in Bury St Edmunds, in Suffolk, are sickening to watch.

But even more sickening is the response of one of their mothers.

For if ever we wonder as a society what creates such ugly behaviour... then here we have the answer.

“This isn’t what we need,” the mum said in response to the outpouring of fury at her son’s behaviour.

“It’s my son’s 16th birthday and we’ve got family here for his party.”

So here we have a woman who thinks more of her son’s birthday party than his behaviour. Thinks only of her own feelings, and nothing of others.

They say the apple rarely falls far from the tree. But it seems a rotten apple decays even closer.

This boy may be a repellent little scrote. But I’m guessing he had little chance of turning out any other way.
