The hooded horrors

Blue water shopping centre has implented the ban on hoodies and has reported an increase in sales as a result of the hooded youths being gone. This is going to be brought into action in many other shopping centres around England! With these hoodie youth gone people feel-"its safer to go shopping, nothing is being vandalised anymore and your not scared to go back to your car". So does this mean its a good thing to get rid of people wearing hoodies? well, no. What about the people who are just innocent shopping teenagers wanting to shop but being turned away because of their clothing because not all teenagers are hoodlums! People do have a stereotypical view of teenagers because of the minority recieving bad press. Whilst this increase in sales and the happiness of customers has been good the teenagers who have to suffer are not going to like it. These are the violent and insolent youths and whether they are in hoodies or vests they are still the same people. By changng their clothes you arent changing the person inside the hoodie!
