to actually reply to the original point made at the start of this varied debate, i would like all those people out there who find it in there hearts to pontificate over criminals and there rights to live in society, perhaps allow said criminals to live next door to them and then let bygones be bygones!
i,m sorry, but it seems the police are out there to get as many soft targets as possible, ie drivers!.
as a good example, me and the wife were out for a drive and passed the gwent county police headquarters, whom were organising a open charity fete that day.
as we took the turning down the main road, there were cars,who had obviously been parked up on the grass to go to the open day, and there were 4 traffic wardens slapping parking tickets on these cars.
now this might seem justified to some, but to me it is outrageous!!
just another police trap to raise funds for there coffers.( i could start another 500 words asking why a so-called state financed police force have to raise funds in the first place)
is there a better way, any suggestions??
