littlebasher Posted August 31, 2006 Share Posted August 31, 2006 Oh dear This happened right outside the Thomas Tripp in Lymington, somewhere i used to go for an evening out. I dunno when it became so rough, although i do remember once teasing another drinker in there for carrying a knife - i told him to return it to his mums cutlery drawer... The following week the same knife was used to stab someone, i wont be teasing anyone with a knife again Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pig2Pugs Posted August 31, 2006 Share Posted August 31, 2006 What gets my back about this is that he got 9 years for injuring a copper, but joyriders get 3 years or less for KILLING people!!! The police are no better or worse than you or me! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The police are no better or worse than you or me! 9 years - this is modern Britain! He got a minimum four-year prison term for hitting the policewoman. He was also given a one-year prison sentence, to run concurrently, for dangerous driving and was banned from driving for six years. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The police are no better or worse than you or me! Maybe because of the intent to hurt the person on the ground, whereas I dont think many joyriders intend to hurt people. I would guess that's the distinction. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I would guess that's the distinction. Spot on. Someone who neglectfully (stupidly/carelessly) leaves a bathroom door open resulting in a toddler falling into a bath of scalding water deserves a slap for their idiocy, whereas someone who purposely drops the toddler into the bath for the hell of it deserves a good kicking - repeatedly - for the intent. Best analogy I can think of at the moment. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
