bring back capital punishment for murder, if you carry a knife, you are out to kill someone, 10 years mandatory .
Simples... Won't bring this poor lad back, but if it saves one innocent life, it's worth it... Be interesting to see what colour the cowards were |
|
By:
I understand it was a group of youngsters that were attacked. Why aren't the police putting out descriptions. Don't try to tell me the survivors didn't see the three men that attacked them!!!
|
|
By:
We have been here many times before mobo.......i think we all know the reason why no descriptions are forthcoming.
|
|
By:
very odd on descriptions released
|
|
By:
Not odd -- probably all on cctv so the police know who they are looking for.
The odd part is the police keeping an open mind as to motive. Was there perhaps more to this than nicking bikes? |

By:
Gang fight?
Be interesting to see what colour the cowards were and I thought CMAT had left us |

By:
Sad young men carry knives now...it is illegal
|
|
By:
Why is it cowardly scum are the only ones allowed to carry knives while law abiding every day citizens concerned for their own welfare are not? And before anyone says they are not allowed to carry knives-THEY ARE DOING IT AND GETTING AWAY WITH IT, so it clearly is allowed!

By:
Agree with dambuster. You carry a knife you get 10 years.

|
By:
Doubt it was anything to do with a bicycle , more likely involving disrepect or being on someones turf in the liberal utopian disaster that this nation is becoming.
|
|
By:
Didnt the Blair/Brown government set a mandatory 5 year sentence for carrying a knife??
Or has this been forgotten due to overcrowded prisons, and the scaling down of 'stop and search' as it might be seen as harassment to the section of society who carry knives! |
|
By:
Nothing to do with turf wars......they just outnumber and intimidate who they perceive as weaker and steal their belongings . Been happening for ages in London . Know a couple of women who had their bikes stolen in a similar manner. Two of them mistakenly tried to nick my mates bike . He battered the first one who put his hands on the bike and then rode after the other but couldn't catch him......they are cowards , hope they catch them and they get life...

![]() The problem with knives is people do not display them do they Unless you do stop and search, then how can anyone know if anyone else have a knife???? But if the police do stop and search too often, that creates problems of it self |
|
By:
There is a school of thought which says these people who do such things tend to come from broken homes, they didn't get enough bitty, blah blah blah blah blah. Prison is an expensive business. Birch em.
|
|
By:
That's in relation to caught carrying.
|
|
By:
One thing I think we can all agree on is that things are getting worse so we have to come up with a solution.
Wish I had the answer but I haven't.Some tough justice needed though imho. |
|
By:
It is tempting Bigmo...but is really the answer
The more vindictive our punishments become, the more it tells me our society is failing. Our society has become incredibly vicious in all sorts of ways compared to say the 1960's and 1970's. Young men were aggressive all right then, it is what young men do, but nothing like the use of knives now. It is societies values which are failing I feel, the disintegration of our society, many causes, I wont go into here. |
|
By:
any descriptions yet ?
|
|
By:
THEY ARE DOING IT AND GETTING AWAY WITH IT, so it clearly is allowed!
WHAT utter nonsense. What do you suggest be done to prevent it? |

Mr Dude- my answering service picked up your message as you won't find me on duty after midnight as Capt_F correctly states. The answer is simple. Instead of providing this scum with benefits for being able bodied but too lazy to work, chop off their hands and provide them with benefits for being unable to work. Unless they are particularly adept with their feet, they won't be knifing anyone ever again! I though a Dude as Shrewd as yourself would of worked that one out!
I hope this clarifies the matter. |

Birching, chopping hands off, capital punishment. Saudi's the place for you m'boy.

By:

I hope this clarifies the matter. Your just as bad as the current lot. Allowing them to knife someone in the first instance and only taking retrospective action. Why are you allowing these people to carry knives? |
|
By:
The law states that people are allowed to defend themselves with EQUAL force. If there is more of a danger of being knifed by a s****, then normal law abiding members of the public should be able to carry knives.
|
|
By:
You been in the pill cabinet Dr? One minute complaining that people carrying knives illegally are being allowed to carry knives and the next saying everybody should carry knives.
The law states that people are allowed to defend themselves with EQUAL force No it doesn't. Maybe in America, but not here. |

By:
If a country is lucky enough to be modern, wealthy and have democratic freedoms, and it allows unrestricted immigration over a period of 50 years from anywhere in the world then thousands of these will be more brutal and savage than the established countries population..it will lead to a Darwinian struggle and the outcome cannot be guaranteed.
|
|
By:
Mr Dude- you are wrong. The Law in the UK permits defence using equal force! If someone breaks into your house and attacks you with a knife you are permitted to defend yourself with a knife. You are not expected to present yourself to the burglar so he can kill you.
|
|
By:
Well, not yet anyway until the pinko liberal human rights let em all in sandal and cardigan wearing Guardian readers come to power anyway.
|
|
By:
According to the BBC, the police now have CCTV footage of the attack.
It was originally by 3 men, now it's 3 youths. If they want them apprehended a.s.a.p why not make the footage public? |
|
By:
Check the law on Self defence Slicer. There is no such thing as equal force in relation to self defence in the UK. It is reasonable force that is a requirement of self defence which is very much different from equal force.
|
|
By:
No jury will convict if you use equal force because equal force is reasonable force! It is unreasonable to use a knife against an unarmed. But perfectly reasonable to defend with a knife against a knife. The attacked have human rights as well you know!

By:
sickening footage. poor kid didn't even see him coming or have a chance to give the bike up.
|
|
By:
Mindless violence.
No doubt the offenders will be known to the police and lessons will be learned. |
|
By:
The reason British law says reasonable force is because the force used does not have to be equal..but can be greater and still reasonable.
|

By:
Repulsive footage ,we need the death penalty back asap .
