    Had been a situation in UK where cops couldn’t chase scumbags on mopeds involved in robbery and mugging and it was rampant. If you had no helmet they could not chase you as I understood it. The law changed and now they can ram these scrotes off the road

    Something very satisfying about watching this !

    Yep, I'm all for the cops running these fcukheads down.

    Just a note of caution though. The cops would want to be very very sure that they had the right person.

    This is so refreshing to see given the kid glove culture that has developed in the UK (more so in Ireland) in relation to scummers.

    :D

    If you're refusing to stop for the police it should automatically attribute blame to you if you get hit. Whether you commited the crime in question or not.

    I'm always amazed at police footage of joyriders crashing.
    They're never hurt, a millisecond after the crash they're at full gallop for the hills.
    And it always seems that anyone they ram always gets badly injured.
    Ram the fcukers!

    I'm all for this, but it's only a matter of time before they seriously injure or kill one of the scumbags, then you'll have the bleeding heart liberals crying and the family suing.

    Why do they slow down after knocking them off? If you’re gonna do a job...

    :D


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 24,036 ✭✭✭✭mickdw


    Surely the scumbags will be claiming injuries and cleaning out the state?

    Bowling for a new generation.

    Of course we know that will never happen in Ireland.
    If the Gards can't be arsed for this, they won't care full stop.



    Work colleague of mine in Limerick once told me that there were some guys going through his shed in the middle of the night. Several calls to the Gardai "oh, so terribly sorry old chap, see we haven't got anyone in your area, terribly sorry, just lock the door and hope for the best".
    Next call "right, I caught one of the fcukers and hit him a good belt, he's out cold on the floor and I'm not sure he's still breathing".
    5 minutes later several cars arrived with lights and sirens. They must have materialised out of thin fcuking air he said.

    They need to do the bait-car thing here to reduce thefts

    Unless I missed something they were all wearing helmets?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,131 ✭✭✭GottaGetGatt


    If this happened in Ireland, the guard would end up in Jail and the scumbag would sue for whiplash.

    These guys on the mopeds are modern-day highwaymen.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 1,288 ✭✭✭Wheres Me Jumper?


    have any of these morons suffered concussion or perhaps spinal injuries?
    maybe i'm asking for too much...


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 1,288 ✭✭✭Wheres Me Jumper?

    could end up with a few ministerial resignations and a tribunal of inquiry?

    Saw this on sky news earlier today, fvcking hilarious stuff.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 1,288 ✭✭✭Wheres Me Jumper?


    i love the way a couple of them seem to remonstrate with the cops as if to say "wtf! this aint fair"
    can somebody put music to it? any suggestions for appropriate tracks?

    Nearly 20,000 moped based crimes, just in Ldn in under 1yr, shocking stuff.

    Of course there'll be daytime ads in-between episodes of J Kyle for "have you been knocked off a moped" call 0800-mopedclaims4u.

    If the moped lads actually stop rush hour traffic, as they did last year (to 'borrow' a 20k+ BBC camera) there's not much you can do to get to them*.

    * Didn't the Met do a fancy PR stunt showing off their fancy n$w BMW F6/7/800GS bikes a while ago,
    they likely haven't been taken out of their storage shed since being bought it would seem.

    What they need is one of those drone-based net-thowing enforcement things to sweep up the moped crews.

    There is a revolting level of lawlessness that has been allowed to rear it's ugly head in a place I grew up as a young adult. Only last week a young lad was stabbed to death by Clapham South Tube station where I used to live. I'm shocked by this because that area was never considered a 'bad area'.

    I belive the reason for this is because of the constant moaning by politicians like Diane Abbot about racism by the police and society. And look what has happened. The police stopped stop-and-search and violent crimes within the lower social demographics in London increased over the last few years.

    And what do the do-gooders say about this? "Oh - lets ponder the reason why these young ppl are behaving this way". The reason is obvious. The lower social classes are being protected for fear of racism and since they now know they can do what they like and surprise surprise they do what they like. Some commentators say the reason for it is 'because of a lack of youth clubs'. Of course it naturally follows that if one doesn't have a passtime that it's completely natural that one would fall into a life of criminality including stabbing ppl to death and you get a smartphone into the bargain. 'Cause if you own a few smartphones and have a reputation for being the hard man and wear the best trainers - what else does anyone need in life. Sorted.

    I have been low level assaulted by the predominately black lower social demographic multiple times in London. Once by 2 black lads that thought it fun as I was walking towards home to hurl homophobic abuse at me. In Brixton as I was with friends taking some cash from the ATM at night a tall Jamacian man stood behind us and as the cash came out he reached from behind us and grabbed it. That easy. Another occasion in broad daylight a Jamaican rastafarian type kissed his lips behind us and muttered 'batty boys batty boys batty boys'.

    It sickens me the level of lawlessness the lower social classes who are predominantly black in London have gotten away with because of this protectionism I talk about and it is in my view directly responsible for the increasing level of knife crime in London.
