I have zero tolerance to low life scum, particularly those who are active anywhere near me. I have a police caution for taking matters into my own hands against a sozzled drug taking tosser who thought he could get away with it. The meassage is on my steet, You won't get away with anything. Drunken tossers who leave supermarket trollies in the road for cars to hit or bend back windscreen wipers for the fun off it get threatened with physical violence in my neighbourhood. My neighbours and I may be seen as viglilantes but we have had no trouble for two years now. You can say they have just move somewhere else but if everybody said NO! then this poor lady would be enjoying the twilight of her life instead of living in fear for the rest of it.
There is no such thing as do gooders. There are do nothings and appeasers. Join your Neighbourhood Watch. Draw a line in the sand.
I'm with you Redruth, I too have a police caution for threatening behaviour! The social services decided in their wisdom to re-house a scumbag family of 8 in the old vicarage in the lovely quiet village where I live. Within days the local area was subjected to a spate of petty crime and theft. I actually saw one of these louts in my back garden trying the handle on my garage door, I went out to challenge him, but he legged it over my fence and disappeared. I'd had things taken before, just silly stuff like the milk was getting nicked, and a couple of garden items gone missing, so I decided to call the police, they more or less immediatly told me that they didn't consider it serious enough to pay me or the louts a visit, even though I could identify them. Fine I said if you can't be bothered then I'll deal with it myself and put the phone down. Within a minute plod was back on the phone warning me about taking the law into my own hands, I gave them a mouthful about being a victim turned villian by their inactivity. They decided after that
to pay me a visit, not to discuss the trespasser or the crime, but to give me talking to about my attitude.
After they'd finished their lecture I asked if they were then going to have a similar conversation with the "criminal", No there isn't enough evidence, and nothing of value had been stolen!!! WHAT, I've seen this person on my property attempting to break into my garage, and, if we now went to their house I bet we would find the things they'd taken from my garden. Still no action from plod, and I was now furious with them, so in future if I see this bloke on my property there's no point in ringing you then? I asked. No reply just a glare, so I said, to protect my property and my family I will leave a garden fork in the porch, and the next person who I find on my property uninvited will get jabbed with it.
Aha, this did get a response, a official police caution! Well done plod, I hope you're proud of yourselves.
I did end up going to where the bloke lived, and told him what would happen to him if I ever caught on my property again. He and his family had more or less totally trashed the house they had been given by social services, broken windows, door smashed and from where I was standing skirting boards and door frames had been torn off the walls, presumably to be used as fuel. The outside of the property was just as bad, junk everywhere, in effect a lovely old house had been reduced to a slum. We did eventually get these low lives moved on, and I suppose thats what will happen to them everywhere they go. I don't feel sorry for them one bit, they get given everything on a plate, throw it back in the faces of people who are trying to help them, and continue to rob, steal and break the law with impunity.
We need to wake up in this country, an old, helpless innocent lady has been battered to within an inch of her life by low life loose brained thugs, and I'm afraid that if they are ever caught will not be given the sentence they deserve. Why give them a 15 year sentence with a priviso that they must serve at least 7??????
