    Default Police won't chase thieves....

    in case the little dears hurt themselves...

    A teenager was shocked when police refused to chase joyriders who had just stolen his moped - because the thieves were not wearing helmets.

    Max Foster, 18, called 999 when he saw three youths take his machine in Bath in the early hours of Tuesday.

    An officer told him they could not give chase in case the unprotected thieves fell off the bike and sued the police.
    linky

    There are times I wish they’d just ban everything- baccy and beer, burgers and bangers, and all the rest- once and for all. Instead, they creep forward one apparently tiny step at a time. It’s like being executed with a bacon slicer.

    “Politics is the art of looking for trouble, finding it whether it exists or not, diagnosing it incorrectly, and applying the wrong remedy.”

    To learn who rules over you, simply find out who you are not allowed to criticise.

    "The purpose of a university education for Left / Liberals is to attain all the politically correct attitudes towards minorties, and the financial means to live as far away from them as possible."

    Surprised ? ? ? No.

    The stupidity of modern policing has reached the stage where nothing will shock me anymore. Criminals are innocent until proven that there is no possibility of a law suit against the police. Even people in prisons are sueing nowadays because they claim the conditions are innhumane - I suppose they would be the expert on what's innhumane, afterall they have bludgeoned their families to death with their own shoes.
    Cowardice is to run from the fear;
    Bravery is not to never feel the fear.
    Bravery is to be terrified as hell;
    But to hold the line anyway.

    So seatbelt laws are irrelevant?

    Anyways should'nt they have gotten a ticket for riding w/o a helmet?
    When a fox kills your chickens, do you kill the pigs for seeing what happened? No you go out and hunt the fox.

    You can't really give them a ticket if you don't chase them cause then you don't know where they went.
