mugging
« on: 13 January 2010, 01:02:14 »
today I found out that one of my work mates left work friday night, went back in shop did shopping got £50 cash back , left the shop and was mugged by a hoodie wearing little bxxxxxd. I would love the little twat to have a go with me because from now on I will be carrying a sharp object at all times and I hope to blind any of the little gits that dare approach. will it be legal no, will it be premeditated yes, do i care no. I have had enough of a country that if they catch this pig, will smack him on the hand and send him to mummy.
This girl is now living in fear, because the evil shxt, took her bag and her house keys ect, she lays in bed at night and dares not to sleep in case this praxx, comes to her house.
I dont suppose for one minute that the peice of shix, that did this knows or cares that this women he has,harmed has just got through the worst year of her life. (ie) her mum dying and 3 days later her husband collapsing and going into a coma, nearly dying and has only now started to learn to talk and walk again. I want to grab this thug and beat the living daylights out of him, then chop his thieving hands off and thats just for starters,I want to see him crawling on the ground begging for his rotten life. And I wouldnt bat an eyelid as I finished it for him. I hope he rots in hell.

As there's no deterrent to stop these scumbags from re-offending it makes it very frustrating for the ordinary person.  I would make the punishment so severe that only a complete idiot would turn to crime or re-offend but the law can't seem to grasp this simple solution.

I hope your Workmate has changed the locks of her house, cancelled any Credit Cards and informed her Mobile Provider of the theft otherwise she may face some huge Bills

Unfortunatly she wasnt insured for anything in her bag, and can ill afford to lose even a pound.we have started a collection at work for her, and the police have rang they are going to see her again tonight, we will find out why when I see her again.  :halo:

OMG, that's awful dreamer. 
Are you allowed to carry MACE or pepper spray rather than a sharp instrument?
Anyway, don't let the bastards intimidate you.  That way, they have won.  And that's not good.
I guess there's something to be said for living in a car-dependent society.
That way, you just get car-jacked!

unfortunatley pp in this country now, no matter what you carry someone would say their human rights had been interferred with, the perpertrator always comes out on top when they go through our courts,.it is definatly against the law to carry a so called weapon, as in sharp instument, as for mace sprays im not sure but i bet even then the criminal would sue the victim for hurting his eyes. the laws of this country are a joke.years ago when the ripper was on the loose we all carried steel tail combs as weapons, but i bet nowadays with all the do gooders that would be an offence to carry too.

You could carry a can of spray on BRUT 33
It's not an offensive weapon (in the eyes of the law)

Another one in a handy sized container is "burn-ease" for spraying on burns but hey don't get it in eyes or on an open wound.
Is in a small pressurised tin and will fit into the palm of a hand so it is easy to carry if your concerned about a person following or near you Have it ready and the distance it will squirt is quite large so they should not get too close

well just an update in this sorry saga, when the police went to my friends house it was just to tell her that the only so called female witness, who saw it all happen, cannot give evidence if the attacker is caught, as she is known to them and is awaiting her own trial for theft and fraud, and the prosocution would rip her evidence to peices as she is a criminal herself !!!
It just gets worse and worse, I feel so sorry for my work mate. :halo:

It makes me cringe to think that the courts go out of their way to discredit the evidence given by whoever witnessed any crime.  The court in fact uses every intimidating method available to them and it insults the intelligence of the General Public when they do this but it seems quite acceptable in court procedure.  It takes a strong willed person to give evidence at a trial, as it’s the Lawyers intention to rattle and make them feel as insecure and uncomfortable as possible, as these Lawyer know that they've got the upper hand because the vast majority of witnesses are simpletons when it comes to the Law

A torch is a good thing to carry, a large one like a 3D cell or bigger mag lite. Not classed as an offensive weapon, hold the torch from beneath.
I bought Jackie one mainly as a self defence object, but obviously handy to see where you are going. I believe she has used it to light up a certain area where stitches were involved. lol

Coming back to offensive weapons, we were always told to carry a small pepperpot, easily kept in hand and easily applied.      On one job I had we were issued with the high powered alarms and Gawd are they ear piercing!    Just a small looking spray type can of about 4 inches tall, you'd never know they could make so much noise!      Cheaper to buy pepper though!

If the Law did their job properly, there would be little need for anyone to carry a weapon of any sort.  If these 'Muggers' were given a bit of PAIN, I think they'd think twice (or even 3 times) before they did it

What's needed is another strong willed activist like Emily Pankhurst.  All we do is sit on our bums and complain amongst ourselves
