What the world has come to...

This was sent today via the mailing list and just about sums up the state the country is in....#
Hello Folks,
I have been a member of the Scorpio mailing list for about two years and although I was unable to offer any assistance to other members, the times that I required help a speedy and excellent response was always guaranteed.
Along with the Scorpio Websites exceptional mine of quality information and knowlege you just could not ask for more.
Well on saturday at 1.15pm a fifteen year old lunatic smashed a stolen peugeot 205 into my neighbours car which was then shunted into my 2.5TD Scorpio Ultima writing off all three cars. This lad was of such fine upstanding character that he amazingly ran off unscathed leaving his injured girlfriend behind in the wreckage. To sum up, my Scorpio Ultima TD was the best equipped and most reliable car that I have ever owned and it had at least another five years of life....what a waste.!!
Thanks to all who run the the site and many thanks to those fellow members who have offered help over the years.
Bye all
Neil Coverdale

How about neutering him then wiping him off the planet,no shame to anyone.
I've got quite a short temper and really worry what will happen if i ever catch someone like this little w@nker after doing something to my property/family. Funny that i'd probably end up in court and he'd get my Cossie as compensation.
How much more will this country take before things have to change

He'll get community service and loads of tax payers money towards helping him get over all his problems.
MAKE them pay for ALL of the damage, ALL of the costs incurred, police, insurance companies, court costs the LOT! and if they arent working then make them work for it.
Then put them in a room with Cossieguy

Think I've mentioned this before,
A number of us have towbars fitted so its a case of dragging the scumbag with a rope to his nuts. just far enough to remove big chunks of skin then put him in a bath tub full of cooking salt and scrub with a yard brush.
or the other method,
Two foot of barbed wire inserted in a length of conduit, insert the cunduit and barbed wire into any orrifice you see fit then remove the conduit leaving the barbed wire behind.
Just had a thought do the wire trick first then the towbar and salt routine.

It's depressing what goes on...
We had a breaking at our school on saturday early morning, must be current or recently EX pupils... 8 laptops stolen and assorted damage ot doors fittings etc... But it's all the other costs that mount up...
I have better things to do, but Myself and my senior technician spent most of the day sortign CCTV and insurance info on the stolen equipment. The bursar spent half the day sorting inusrance, the site manahger spent half the day sorting repair schedules, our contracter spent all day fixing doors. Staff spent the day not able to teach what they wanted...
And how much are the little g1ts going to get.. £50 per laptop max... and they cost the insurance company £900... Realy makes me dispare...
And whilst all this was going on, one of our main Computer Servers Keeled over and I spent a further hour on the phone to the Far east trying to tell the call center it was dead!!!

Taliban, It wasn't my car mate, it was a chap on the mailing list. I was just posting it here so people could see the hurt it causes when these prats drive stolen cars. Personally I would have dragged his girlfriend out of the car and made her tell me where he lives and then gone round and set fire to his dads car.... real justice. Revenge is true justice dispite what the liberals will tell you. Just read some of the replies above. Everybody wants revenge because that is the only thing that will work!
TT, I own a company and we have over 400 schools past and present as customers. One of the new areas we have gone into as an off shoot of the data cabling is network CCTV systems. We recently caught a lowlife stealing a projector from the school. He is in court on Wednesday and is likely to go down!!!! It makes me proud!! So much so we have just given the school a new projector and laptop as a thank you for being a reference site for us!

We have 74 cameras, but unfortunatly despite my mentioning it 3-4 times during planning/install... They never did a night survey and so night coverage is B.......x, apart from me being able to ID the MK5 VX Astra...
CCTV is catching lots of general problems though.
We have "SMART WATER" to put on equipment, I actualy started on Friday afternoon doing this as I had a spare moment.... Did not find the laptops that were stolen, the thiefs had a goood rumage in cupboard for them!!

We could start an online petition, then spread it round the other car forums to start with then un-leash it on the whole internet(Britain). Remember how quickly the insurance one from the Mazda site went round. W'ed have to tone down the
whole torture side of things but could certainly try and put the very valid point of proper punishment ie. As Highlander said make them pay for everything involved in bringing them to justice. Personnaly i believe we should go with the 3 strikes and you're out approach from the USA. 3 convictions for any offences and automatic life(Whole of life) in prison that'd sort them out. I'd happily pay a little more in taxes to lock these scum away forever.
So who has the knowledge to set up this petition in a legal (So we don't sound/look like crackpots) way.
Guy.
