WTF is wrong with people these days?

With any luck, the little sh*t is habitually walking into things and slipping on bars of soap whilst inside, if you know what I mean...

Fingers crossed...

If it were up to me, he'd be standing on a cold, damp parade square as a shivering, snivelling wreck with some Sargent Major screaming in his ear about what a useless piece of human garbage he is, before ordering him off to the barracks to polish everyone's boots.

Maybe after several months of this, he'd come away with the potential to at least make a positive contribution to society and maybe learn to take some responsibility for his actions?

That sort of reminds me of someone around here. Murdered somebody, got four years. Was out in two, murdered someone else. Went back in for three, was out in six months. Murdered someone else. He's gone back in for life now, but will probably only serve five years.

Our justice system seems to be made for hardening killers. No wonder we have such a murder rate.

@Kenny

Given the relative laxity of the justice system in keeping murderers locked up, all you need are a few vigilante-type assasins of known murderers and other hardened criminals and you could clean up in a few years...

And getting shagged up the arse every time he slips on the soap too!

Putting them in prison is not the right thing to do. Neither is hanging/lethal injection/electric chair.

We should send them off to the troubled spots in the world as front line cannon fodder.

They like killing people, so send them off to kill some more.  Weith no chance of a return back to civilian life, unless it's in a body bag.

Hmmm i kinda feel a bit guilty now. I got £1500 for being smacked on the head with a brick. On the other hand my mate got zero for being stabbed in the ear with a chisel so god knows how they judge these things.

Apparently if someone gets arrested for it, whether they get charged or not, you will get less money.

My mate got smacked across the face and his jaw was knocked out of place, by some drug dealer a few years back and didn't dare say he knew who did it.

He got £4000!!!

The criminal gets punished for the crime, the victim gets to see him suffer.

If no criminal is found then you get money to compensate for not seeing him suffer.

A bit stupid really.

So in my case why did I only get £2000?

The criminal was "never found" in the eyes ofthe law, as it never reached court.

[Vincent]

Judge's discretion I suppose (or whoever it is that deals with it).

You should get compensation and get to see the bugger.  It's screwed up.

The law is as I see it these days FOR the criminal and against the victim.

If this sort of thing carries on I say there MUST be a mandatory sentence of at least 5 years for this sort of unprovoked behaviour.

Then again we will have all the do gooders coming out from under there stones and yelling out "Ohhhh this is not fair, what about his human rights"

HEY, what about the victims human rights?

As far as I am concerned if you blatantly brake the law then ALL your rights are forefeet.  END OF STORY.

The law must think more about the victim and less about the one who wants to hurt or even kill some one.

Yeah, that's my interpretation of it.  You can have someone commit a crime against you and if you dare defend yourself or your property then you risk charges being brought.  It's fair game for a criminal to have a go at you or your home, because even if he/she gets their ass kicked they can sue for assault and make cash out of you that way.  Easy money.

The Police are at an all time low in this country when it comes to public support.  I hate to bang on, but you can count on being under the full weight of the law if you speed or have no TV license (£1000 fine), but stand little chance of getting a conviction and/or your property back in a burglary, despite the myriad CCTV cameras we have in our towns.

Actually, an interesting case a while back.  A guy had returned home from an archery competition and was about to dismantle his bow and place it back in it's case.  He heard a noise, ran to the window and saw a young chav putting a brick through his car window and clambering inside to get the stereo.  He opened the window, drew the bow and fired a carbon arrow right into the chav's arse, causing a lot of damage in the process.

The chav of course complained to the authorities, who ruled that because the man happened to have a weapon in his hand, his actions weren't premeditated and therefore didn't constitute assault.  He was cleared of charges and best of all, it took surgeons a full hour to remove the (hopefully splintered) carbon arrow from the chav.

An extremely rare, but welcome victory for common sense.

Me getting hit over the head with a bottle.

Now I know i'm screwed.

As my father and I was walking back from our local, after watching the England V Scotland under 18's which was actually played in my home town of Hartlepool, a friend was passing by and offered us a lift home. I was telling him about what happend on Friday 10th Dec. He asked me if i knew who he was. I said, "Yes his name is John Paul Smith." His reply is, "I know him. He's a smack head."

The only other time i've ever had dealings with the police was when i had a visit/many of visits of a smack head. To cut a very long story short this smack head called John Robert Jobling came up to my place of work and threatend to snap my legs and flicked a fag end into my face. Granted i lost my temper came out of my stall and said, "come on then." He ran off and told the police that I chased him out of the market with a 8" carving knife threatning to kill him. When the police came and explained his acusations I just laughed. When i explained to the policeman that i am disabled and can't even catch my 4 year stepson. His reply was, " Er we like er sort of know of Jobling. But we have to act upon his aqusation's. However if you come to the police station tomorrow at say 8 o clock i'll arrest you then instead of now."

What choice did i have. I went to the police station got arrested, got bailed and after a month it finally got a NFA (No Further Action) apparntly.

This scum Jobling was sentanced to 1 year in April. Drugs related.

It just goes to show you can be a law abiding person but if you come up agianst a smack head. Then yer screwed

@Andy
