URBANARIUM

Lately, public transport and the streets of our city have become places where safety has become a gamble. The incident that happened to us (Ruslan and Renee) on an Auckland Transport bus exposed a deep, systemic flaw in our society. A group of 14- and 15-year-old teenagers attacked us from behind. They demanded money, cigarettes, and drugs, and one of them even resorted to vile insults against a woman, cynically declaring his "future criminal ambitions." Meanwhile, the juvenile delinquents openly laughed in our faces, flaunting their age, believing themselves to be protected by the law, the administration, and the government, and therefore untouchable.

I'd like to immediately address the armchair critics and haters who will try to find fault here. There's absolutely no reason to be angry with us or condemn our actions. Understand one simple thing: absolutely anyone could have found themselves in our shoes. Tomorrow, your wife, your mother, your daughter, or your child or grandchild will board this bus—and this pack will attack them from behind, at any time of day or night. This is a systemic threat that affects every home in Auckland.

What happened later at Manukau station, where one of the attackers was met with instant street "karma" from other young people, was not just a random skirmish. It is the principle of humanity and civic solidarity in action.

Renaee and I want to state openly: we are deeply concerned about this situation. We are in no way proud of the fact that these children, essentially, had to be punished by force. Violence should not be the norm. But what happened was no longer just punishment. This is a stern warning to all other "puppies" who think they can terrorize adults, ruin the city, and disregard human dignity with impunity. In Auckland, civil society's self-defense mechanisms are being activated. When laws and police fail, the streets themselves are becoming the ones to discipline them.

The behavior of these teenagers is a serious diagnosis and a colossal problem for their parents, families, schools, and youth police, who have completely failed to educate them.

In this regard, as an ambassador for the Urbanarium project and someone who cares about the future of our city, I am putting forward a specific initiative. Auckland and New Zealand need a radical reform of how they handle troubled teenagers. I propose creating specialized Work Rehabilitation Camps where government agencies or desperate parents themselves could send teenagers who are beyond their ability to cope, for periods ranging from one month to complete rehabilitation.

This must be a system of strict but constructive discipline:

A complete digital detox: No phones, social media, or internet. A return to real life.

A strict daily routine: Rise at 6:00 a.m., a mandatory 5-kilometer run to strengthen the spirit and body, followed by a healthy breakfast.

Intellectual and spiritual development: Daily study combined with physical labor for the benefit of society—so they understand the value of a penny earned.

Moral anchor: Mandatory study and performance of church choral songs—a new song every two weeks. This will restore them to the basic ethical guidelines, spirituality, and sense of community they were deprived of on the streets.

These juvenile hooligans learned their first, hard, but well-deserved lesson at Manukau Station. But street karma should not replace the state system. We need labor camps to return these "puppies" to society as normal, respectful citizens. And so it will be with anyone who decides that human laws don't apply to them.

CIVIC SOLIDARITY IN ACTION: THE FIRST AND LAST LESSON FOR JUVENILE JACKALS

The other day, Renee and I were attacked by a pack of 14- and 15-year-olds on an Oakland bus. They attacked us cowardly, from behind. They demanded drugs, cigarettes, and money, and one of these degenerates even managed to insult Renee, claiming that "he's a minor and won't get into trouble." They're confident that the laws, the government, and their blind parents will protect them from any responsibility.

⚠️ For the haters: There's no reason to be angry at us or spit bile in the comments. Anyone of you could end up in our shoes tomorrow. Consider that your wife, mother, daughter, or grandson could be riding on that bus at any time. And these jackals won't care about age—they'll attack just the same. It could happen to anyone.

But karma caught up with them faster than the police. At Manukau station, one of these "heroes" was pinned down by other guys — ordinary citizens, who also had a boil. The video of this "educational process" has already spread across the Web.

Renee and I want to make it clear right away: we are not proud that these guys were physically punished. We are concerned about what the city has come to. But what happened is not just a lynching, it's a final warning to the next kids who want to follow in their footsteps.

If your parents don't bring you up, the school doesn't control you, and the police can't control you, civil society will bring you up. These idiots got their first hard lesson in respect.

But it's time to solve the problem systematically. As a representative of Urbanarium, I propose to launch a project of Labor Education Camps for young scumbags that neither their ancestors nor the school can handle. You need to send them there for a period of one month to the bitter end.

The program is simple and trouble-free:

Zero internet and gadgets.

🏃‍♂️ Get up at 6 a.m. and run 5 km, then breakfast.

Studying and hard physical labor every day.

Spiritual education: every 2 weeks — a new church song by heart. In chorus.

Only a strict regime, hard work and spirituality will make people out of these puppies. Society is tired of being afraid of juvenile bandits. It's time to bring order back to our city!
