Bender Posted December 18, 2020 Share Posted December 18, 2020 Warning contains images snowflakes may find not compatible with having a nice day What the paper dosen't say was how much of a complete tool and full time criminal twat the thief was. No he probably didn't deserve his end date with Street furniture, but the system and courts are as much to blame, had he been dealt with properly on one of the multiple previous times he wouldn't have ended up where he was. https://www.thesun.co.uk/news/13508827/moment-vigilante-driver-killed-thief/ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Liveware Problem Posted December 18, 2020 Share Posted December 18, 2020 Clearly the red mist descended and he wasn't thinking things through. I reckon he was lucky to get manslaughter not murder really. 10 years in jail and taking someone's life though.. is a motorbike really worth that!? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
S-Westerly Posted December 18, 2020 Share Posted December 18, 2020 According to my Romanian colleagues if he'd been in Romania neither of the thieves would have survived and the police wouldn't have given a toss. Don't particularly want to live in Romania but I have zero sympathy for the thieves. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Richzx6r Posted December 18, 2020 Share Posted December 18, 2020 (edited) What has the world come to when the police are trying to protect thieves and the perpetrators of crime yet the victim of the first crime as in this case gets hauled through hell Common sense has to prevail in as much as if the bike hadn't been nicked then the "killer" wouldn't have chased them and both of the scum bags would be alive (sadly) to rob some other poor souls of any possession that hadn't been nailed down so no the owner of the bike is still the victim in all of this and the poxy "justice system" if we can call it that locks up the wrong people yet again Edited December 18, 2020 by Richzx6r Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
manxie49 Posted December 18, 2020 Share Posted December 18, 2020 I'm the same as s-westerly, no sympathy for thieves whatsoever. The way I see it, if you steal someone else's property then you take your chances. You may steal from someone who says "F--k it" I'll just write it off and claim on my insurance, on the flip side however you may steal from someone who says "I will look for them, I will find them and I will kill them" . The best advice I would give is, if it doesn't belong to you then leave it the f--k alone. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ian Frog Posted December 18, 2020 Share Posted December 18, 2020 I am torn on this one ! Imagine the headlines if someone was innocently turning left off a roundabout as he took it the wrong way round. Granted the scum who nicked the bike deserve no sympathy whatsoever but I cant help feeling in one respect the victim of the theft has actually got away quite lightly by not killing someone completely unconnected. Cheers Ian 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

KiwiBob Posted December 18, 2020 Share Posted December 18, 2020 (edited) No sympathy for the bike thieves! .. The one that died wasn't wearing a helmet! This is the sort of thing that happens when the Police and the courts don't take motorcycle theft seriously! Steal £10,000 from a bank and you'll get 10 yrs! .. Steal some ones £10,000 motorbike and get a slap on the wrist! Edited December 18, 2020 by KiwiBob 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

KiwiBob Posted December 18, 2020 Share Posted December 18, 2020 (edited) I had a car stolen while I was living in NZ. .. The police caught the pair and I was asked if I would like to meet with them as part of their "Resrorative Justice" system. I asked if I could bring my baseball bat and beat the crap out of them? The meeting didn't go ahead! Edited December 18, 2020 by KiwiBob 1 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
