The amount of people's lives they've ruined by stealing, armed robbing and the worst, acid attacking to steal, that's life changing not to mention people work hard in a shit job to pay to have nice things, to have it taken away by these shithouses. Well done police...... bloody well done.
Scumbags got one of our vans on Friday, they were confronted by someone who they told to F#+# off and stole about a grands worth of tools from a hardworking man who really doesn’t deserve this. We put extra protection on the vans but a cordless drill negated £350.00 sovs worth of locks
The cynic in me says this wont make a bit of difference as in most cases the little scumbags wont be in the open road and thus out of contact. The real issue is when these little farkers are caught they get some pointless penalty. £50 fine, a years ban on a license they don't have, ten minutes of community service etc Until the judiciary are empowered to lock these cocks up for 5 years or more then all this is just filibustering to keep us bikers feeling the police are doing something. I bet you the minute little Tyrone is knocked off by plod he'll be up for £100,000 of compensation.
The current Police tactic around where I live is employing the Klingon cloaking device. It's very, very effective, so much so that you'd think there were non actually out there.
The problem with locking them up and hat can't be underated is, the networking and learning they do inside.I know guys who have done time to pay fines and, one guy who was stupid enough to get locked up to find dealers he could use, it was an investment to him.
If the figures are to be believed the action is having quite an effect on reducing the number of scumbags willing to take a risk. However, the question is, what next to reduce it further? I like "Milligans" idea regarding Apache helicopters!
I've long held the belief that if you choose to operate outside of the law then you should lose your legal rights to protection and compensation etc. You shouldn't be able to have it both ways.
I agree. But someone has said it here wait till we have to pay big claims for injuries. And the do-gooder Lawyers get the nails into it. No win no fee asbestos related diseases injured at work knocked of your stolen moped we can help. Just waiting for the Advert. Regards Joe.
Hartlepool a mostly shithole town of 92 thousand, with only 10 police officers on the night shift, that just about sums up this governments policy on fighting crime. https://www.bbc.com/news/av/uk-46261480/hartlepool-the-town-where-police-don-t-come-out
Are you a thieving piece of shit! Have you ever robbed a nana or a mother of 3 whilst the kids watched at knife point? Have you ever used acid to absolutely ruin someone's life for ever? Have the police ever knocked you off your stolen moped whilst riding it like a complete knobber? If you have call us today, we know your scummers but you could be "entitled" to 1000's in compensation Yes Joe ya can see the add your rite!
If the reporting is correct, then the Met police who chase these suspects only ram them if they are sure there are no innocent bystanders or other moving vehicles in the vicinity.
Nothing keeps the lower classes down like crime ,its like a river ;- as long as the crime flows down stream from the upper to the lower classes thats fine. toffs fleecing you with high prices and low wages thats fine. Stealing from one another, thats fine, we might send a cop, stealing from the local toff, send C I D.and C I S, and reflect that in the sentencing too.
While SWMBO was out today I had a couple of hours listening to some Strawbs (remember them?) LPs (remember them? Black vinyl discs around 12" in diameter which with the right equipment will reproduce music). At least one of them was built in 1971. I have other LPs dating back to the mid 60s which I have had from new. Bet you don't feel old now, Jez!! SIGH ... I do like to make the good folk hereabouts feel better about themselves. I think my work here is done!
You know that the system is broken when the criminals are protected by it more than their victims, and the system stops criminals bearing the consequences of their choice to hold everyone else's right to live free of fear. There should be clear 'rules of engagement' to protect the innocent, but the police need to be allowed to catch the scrotes and if that means that the little darlings get taken off their stolen bikes with extreme prejudice then so be it.
You cant make the Laws then start the World ,you have to make the laws as you go, so its a case of bandage and patch as the need arises. This is why the laws is an Ass, its there to stop idiots being a danger to themselves and others,and the idiots keep finding new ways to be a danger. Then the rest of us have to follow these rules too. Thats why the phrase "I have the right" boils my blood Never mind the letter of the law follow the spirit, a great man once said. I was going to post this in another thread very funny and germane
