Bangersanmash 4,109 Posted February 28 Report Share Posted February 28 It's getting bad when you can't even go on a bike ride without thinking someone is going to mug you for your bike. Then the wonder why some carry weapons. Loved how that woman came with spade Quote Link to post Share on other sites

But, not trying to convince you, it’s just an opinion I’ll also add that you could leave a bike or car outside my local train station for month totally unlocked and nobody ever touches it…..just won’t happen……that is what I regard as normal behaviour.

But, not trying to convince you, it’s just an opinion Mate, things like that have been happening forever. Back in the mid 90's a gypsy family moved on our street for about a year, the family had two lads a few years older than us. Me and a few mates started knocking about with them in a fashion but we knew you couldn't trust them as far as you could throw them. One of our mates bought a new air rifle and when mooching about we bumped in to the youngest of the gypsies, Simey. His eyes lit up like a magpie when he saw the gun, he begged to have a look at the gun and my mate foolishly handed it over to him. I think you can guess what happened next, he basically told the lad that he was having the gun off him wether he liked it or not. Rats are rats, they have been around forever.

The modus operandi might be different, but the result is the same. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
