The local "chav's" up here in the North of Scotland sit occasionally (whilst
not creating a mobile nuisance!) in a car park right next door to plod, the
only time plod takes any notice at all is if they are walking (very rare!)
past and the music is too loud.
They run around the town with either no lights, sidelights, or side and fog
lights under the misguided belief that it is cool. I nearly collected one in
the side of the disco a few weeks ago, he appeared out of nowhere at a
ridiculous speed (well over the legal 30, let alone a safer 20!) with
sidelights only, preventing me from seeing him approaching as I pulled very
slowly and carefully out of a blind junction in the middle of the town!
Plod allegedly introduced a no-nonsense get-tough scheme recently, according
to the local rag the toerags would get one warning then be charged and if
they persisted their vehicles could be confiscated. All the sensible locals
thought "about time", that was 2 months ago and nothing has changed, other
than the tea consumption rate in the piggery due to the colder weather
recently! I told the pigs about the one I almost collected, and the response
was nothing more than the standard "Ah well, unless we actually catch them,
there's not an awful lot we can do". He objected to my response of "Well,
get off your arses and get out there then and you might actually have a cat
in hell's chance of catching them!", attempting to have a go at me for my
attitude. My further response was "Do your bloody job that my taxes are
paying for then, if you don't like my attitude look in a mirror, what are
you going to do, arrest me for exercising my legal right to free speech?"
and with that, walked out the door. But it's comforting to know that if my
local pub serves me with a beer after the legally permitted licensing laws
allow, they'll take his alcohol licence from him in the interests of public
safety!!!!! And the coppers wonder why they get little or no respect
anymore..... lazy gits!
