UK Riots 2011: Gavin McKenna (Ex-Gang Member) explains.....why!

This piece was first broadcast on 10 Aug 2011 on UK's satellite television Sky News. Gavin McKenna, a former gang member is asked about the motivation of the UK rioters.

Asked "Why are they doing it?", McKenna responds: "Leading that 'life' once myself I never really had a moral compass....I didn't want to learn and I didn't want to listen....I was bitter at my father and didn't feel like I fit in."

Dads, are you listening? Your children need YOU! McKenna has since found Christ who has transformed his life and family. Both religion and a lack thereof has and will continue to cause many "ills" in our society. A relationship with the Lord Jesus Christ will transform your life. Just ask Gavin McKenna!

Don't copy the behavior and customs of this world, but let God transform you into a new person by changing the way you think. Then you will learn to know God's will for you, which is good and pleasing and perfect. Romans 12:2 NLT
