Re: enough to make you sick
 

I have a friend who lives nextdoor to my parents, she is a copper, we were talking this morning, I mentioned the name of a particular person, but that is not what they are belive me!! I and they 2 are on the same track as what my colleagues at north tees are. I hope it is this person, as it is one less peice of **** to deal with.
Teeside used to be a lovely area Flub will tell you this, but sadly since the council idiots decided to knock down certain parts of this area for so called 'progress', they have been dispersed into our community with the various problems that they have and they have caused nothing but trouble.
When Paul gets his compo I am sad to say we are leaving this area, as Paul is sick of me getting attacked at work mainly by druggies I may add and the way this area is becomming I cannot stay as I will end up having a breakdown. This story has affected the whole of the teeside community and everyone wants this person brought to justice. This person who attacked the elderly lady is a coward and is evil. But what will he get 10yrs/5yrs with good behaveiour. I wanna be sick

Re: enough to make you sick
 

Me too

Re: enough to make you sick
 

That is just totally out of order.

So, what label would you have for me? Am I one of the "do-gooders"? I know what I am not and that is one of those who comes in, shouts "cut their heads off" and then ****s off back out of the thread with no useful contribution whatsoever. In fact, don't answer because I don't care for that kind of non-argument and I don't want to take it further off topic.

Re: enough to make you sick
 

me283, you seem to know an awful lot about the legal system. Either that or you are just typing what you read in the Sun.

Let me make one thing clear. People that do things like this TO ANYONE are ****. They should be imprisoned, or made to do National Service.

BTW, as I have said before, from what I have seen, prison ISN'T the holiday camp the press describe.

But the one thing I do think we need is proof the people accused actually did it.

Re: enough to make you sick
 

Well I have said it before in other threads and my opinion still has not changed. The sooner this country starts treating criminals like criminals not charity cases the better off we will all be, including the criminals.

Re: enough to make you sick
 

I honestly have no label for you.

I work with a do-gooder who says if someone raped his wife/killed her etc, he would "turn the other cheek"

He thinks however everyone else should have that view, because people who carry out these sick crimes are "human beings" :mad:

Re: enough to make you sick
 

:notopic: But, that did happen to me. My then girlfriend was attacked by an ex boyfriend of hers, and, although I wasn't there, I certainly didn't "turn the other cheek" when I did see him (she had told me who it was). The only thing that saved him was the fact he could run faster than me.

Re: enough to make you sick
 

Shall we say, I have possibly a different knowledge of prison and the legal system than you do, and it is most certainly not based upon what I read in ANY of the newspapers I see (why do you mention the Sun? That tells me something already...).

"Proof" will be determined by the courts; punishment too, although the latter tends to be ridiculously weak these days, in my opinion. Personally, if this were a relative of mine, I would make sure that regardless of what punishment the court gave them, I would meet up with them at some stage. I swear that they would never then so much as stare at anyone in a threatening manner.

And yes, I might end up in prison... but I could do with a holiday.

Re: enough to make you sick
 

Why be cryptic?

Re: enough to make you sick
 

You want details of my criminal record? The number of times I may have been in a cell? The number of people I know well who have done time? Or would you rather I said "actually, it's OK, I read in the Daily Star that..."?

I don't ask about your basis for opinions, do I?

Re: enough to make you sick
 

It's based on you telling me in a previous post that you'd been known to read the Sun..

Re: enough to make you sick
 

Would that be the one where I said that I read many papers, including The Sun, The Independent, The Times, etc etc?

Re: enough to make you sick
 

Go on then - it's been a very long day :p:

Re: enough to make you sick
 

Possibly, but I am pretty sure you didn't mention the others.. Might go off and look later..

Anyway, I think we are all getting a little off topic here.. The topic is an old lady being attacked?

I think we can all safely agree that the perpetrators (if it can be proved they did it) should be punished severely?

Re: enough to make you sick
 

Thousands of comedians out of work, and you're trying to be funny...;)

Absolutely; but I think a major issue for some of us here is that they probably won't be punished anything like severely enough.
