Thieving Bastards......

Whilst reading the messages of sympathy from other members I was reminded of the fact that one of the board's members lost his daughter this Christmas and I didn't see many messages of sympathy for him. Perhaps you missed it in the midst of other postings, or perhaps you sent him private messages of sympathy but at first glance it seems that the loss of material goods seems to be more important to many people than the loss of a life.

Hey gobsmacked that it terrible, can you tell me the name of the thread and where to find it so I can offer my condolences to the person concerned. I have searched all over the place and cannot find.
 
as much as i feel sorry for the people of asia and realise how lucky we are its still damn annoying to spend most of your life working and then for some useless waste of society to walk in your home and take everything you ve worked for i got in today about 7ish to find my patio door handle and my backdoor handle completely bent like someone has been swinging on them to try and get in .This is now the second time since ive moved up the top end of ossy in the last two years but they did more damage last time .I ve lived in ossy for 28 years and never had any bother living near the rhyddings park end think i ll be moving back down there after xmas .Im now sat up all night in case they return except this time the damage will be to there heads
 
What terrible news. Nothing it seems is sacred to some people. You work hard and try to make a difference and get kicked in the teeth for your efforts. You must be absolutely sickened Roy, I know I would be.

The really annoying thing is though, that the Police are probably aware of who the likely culprits are, but cannot touch them for lack of evidence. I think the time has come for a root and branch overhaul of the way drug related crime is dealt with. I am sick of hearing of criminals getting off scott-free on technicalities. It strikes me that it is the legal profession, who are adept in in finding loopholes in the law, who should be held accountable for the fact that there are so many thieves at large in society.

I didn't realise this, how tragic. You never expect your children to go before yourself, can't imagine how anyone copes with a death of a child. Must be a nightmare.

It makes me sick to think that your stuff will probably be sold to get enough money for 2 £10 bags of heroin and a £5 rock of crack.:mad:
your being robbed at these prices !:D
 
shoot, well that's no good. I've just been up to Accy for Christmas and perhaps an indication of how it is is that a friend of mine up in Bash had his sons snowman stolen from the front garden. Move, most of us find that the upheaval is worth it
 
This kind of thing just justifies why I moved away. I never had to deal with a house break-in but I did have a car, van and motorbike stolen. I have some fond memories of accy but would never move back with the way things are going.
 
Sorry to hear it Roy!
It was the Tuesday before Christmas that there was a program on TV about Druggies in Burnley nicking to feed drug habits that was very interesting insight.I suppose it's like this all over the country in Accrington etc.many of the people are very unintelligent - it is like this all over the place only way to stop it is via security etc

Every timt i go into my local chemist early morning there will be 2 or 3 people given a bottle to drink in front of the staff containing methadone, a substitute for heroin that is more addictive.
 
even with security they ll get in if they want how many times have you walked past or heard a house burglar alarm going off and no sign of the police people just dont bother neighbourhood watch is out the window .My works was robbed xmas eve and we d just fitted a new solid steel door on the safe where all the tools are somehow they still managed to get it off and must have made some noise yet no one on the nearby street heard a thing or just wasnt bothered more like as with what they d taken must have took them ages carrying it all out
 
We had a burglary once - well almost. The alarm went off and must actually have deterred them. The police were waiting outside of the house when we got home and asked us to go in and check if anything was missing. Afterwards I thought maybe they should have been the ones to go in first because the burglars could still have been in there and armed but at the time that didn't dawn on me.

We went in and found a Sony walkman still playing in the dining room and a hacksaw on the bathroom floor - nothing missing at all. The policeman laughed and said we might as well keep the walkman and the hacksaw and it was the first burglary he'd ever known where the victims ended up gaining something.

I can't help thinking times have changed. Doubt the police would even bother about an alarm now.
 
I'm sorry that you got your goods stolen Roy. It's not so much the cost, its loosing what you had, especially the photos and personal things.

Come back over to Deutschland. It's not that bad at the moment, but the thieves are on the increase over here too.

There's no justice anywhere currently, and no chance of you getting your kit back either!

Comiserations mate!
 
Yeh Bob the Methadone is supposed to wean them off the Heroin but it's just a ongoing situation few get off the Heroin....this poses the Question - "Should Drugs be Legalised?"
 
Or you do what my sister did.She sold thze methadone to get some other drugs.Party drugs legalised yes! eg. Pot or hash.Hard stuff no.But guys we had this on the forum about 1.5 years ago and it led to a lot of bad feelings
 
I think that's why they now have to stand in the chemists and drink the methadone so they don't have the opportunity to sell it.
 
Not all have to,I know someone who gets a weeks supply of it in a bottle and takes it home.

Yeh the drugs debate is very controversial - people should be able to do what they like bla bla

I had heroine twice and I knew it had a vice like grip so I left it alone!
