Do nothing Phil, you're right, no point worrying about it.

What do you want him to do? Are you picturing a "Liam Neeson like" hunt for vengeance across the rooftops of Leighton Buzzard? Crap happens sometimes. Move on and learn from it.. No point sitting there stewing in a puddle of your own frustration and need for vengeance.. Not for me anyway..

I dont think it would.

For example..
There was a group of children from the same estate who regularly missed school for no particular reason.
The parents were told on numerous occasions that there would be trouble if it continued.
Of course, the parents ignored all the warnings.
Then, the school wrote to the parents telling them that if their child missed school again for no reason, the parent responsible would spend a week in Jail.
The next morning, all the children were at school and no-one went to jail.

Where on earth was this? It sounds like an apocrophyl load of rubbish.

It's pretty much all over the country now - parents are being sent to jail for their kids continuously failing to go to school

My point was in relation to the whole exchange, never suggested any Liam Neeson vengance, just questioning if he would have the same attitude if it was his property that suffered 10-12K worth of damage, so I take you wouldn't be bothered either, as for me I'd be fuming and would like the scumbag to suffer, If I've parked my car and gone shopping and done nothing wrong, how do you suggest I learn from it, buy a lesser car? Don't shop?

At the end of the day it's a car , a bit of metal that can be replaced - would it be annoying - yes , would I like him punished - yes , has anyone been harmed - no. Getting angry and fuming doesn't make a difference to the end result - doesn't change what has happened and won't change any punishment. Life goes on - no point worrying about the small things

I'll just agree to disagree Phil, 10-12K is not a small thing to me

To be fair Phil, I'd want to key him - with a chainsaw!
 
Always the way in the UK nowadays.

Never mind the victim.

What about the poor guy who did the crime, how will he ever recover from this trauma :rolleyes:
 
Some little toe rag keyed my transit a couple of weeks ago, it'll probably be alright with a bit of t-cut but it's the principle.

At the time I as a bit annoyed and if I'd caught him I would've volleyed him everywhere.

The offender in this case should be made to pay for the damage he's caused regardless of reason for doing it.

Sending him to prison will only cost us the taxpayers,sorry you fine upstanding citizens :D

So you are standing by the first tee Phil, ready to tee off. A guy walks past, pulls your driver out of your bag and runs off with it.
You'd think "It's only a piece of metal that can be replaced" and calmly proceed with your game???
I somehow don't think you would.
 
Going off at a tangent, why have we got such a subculture of anarchy and disrespect in certain areas of the UK? Don't park your car in such and such area, it won't be there in the morning. Don't go into the xxxx pub, as you're not from 'round here... and so on.

50yrs ago my gran used to leave her front door open, quite literally open, not just unlocked, in the roughest part of Middlesbrough. Now, its not even safe to walk through that area in broad daylight without some scroat coming up to you and asking who you are and what are you doing.... no worries for me as the dark side of my family pretty much run the loan sharking and drugs in that area - or until he got put away for a long stretch last year, which only created a vacuum and gang fights/turf wars.

But why have we, yes WE, allowed this to happen in our society?

You tell me Brian.
Quite a few years ago, a mate of mine was doing time in Elmley prison in Kent.
I popped in to see him a few times.
The state of the majority of visitors left a bit to be desired, big fat lumps covered in tattoos, pierced noses and ears...and that was just the kids in pushchairs.
What chance have they got of growing up and becoming decent, law abiding citizens????
I blame the blame culture.

How does that make me any better than him ?

Or is violence more acceptable compared to theft

No one said it makes you better than him, but if you defending your property makes the scroat suffer and stops him doing it to someone else then yes, your violence in defending your property is more than acceptable, imo.
