I was going to make a comment about car crime but then realised it was me who started this thread haha.
We live in a crazy world. A guy casually stabbing someone on a train. Good lord...
I remember that Fantasyland guy. Proper **** him.

Out of curiosity, what do you think is the root cause of drug use ?Maybe tackle the root cause of drug use and we’d see less crime
In the 90s it certainly wasn't because everyone had mental health problems and Im pretty sure a lot of the cocaine use these days isnt considering how much you see going up peoples noses on a matchday and in upmarket dining establishments.
Undoubtedly there are some who are using drugs to deal with very difficult circumstances in life and they deserve every bit of support possible.

Always found it ironic when a lot of the people moaning about crime in their area are snorting coke. Do they think it comes floating down the river in a basket?

I can’t think what show or film it was on, but I remember a phrase of run away from a knife and run towards a gun. I’ve never got my head round that.I'd strongly advise against going for anybody wielding a knife without a weapon of your own. That's one big knife and the fucker had no qualms using it. You could of course get lucky and knock him spark out but if you don't you've then got one big fit angry fucker to fight who's also got a big fuck off knife.

That's why I said it. The bloke turned out to be an even bigger **** than he was on here. 100% gammon.

I'm not testing that one out.I can’t think what show or film it was on, but I remember a phrase of run away from a knife and run towards a gun. I’ve never got my head round that.
You'll never get rid of crime or rise in crime.
The first thing is major crime has always been a problem (Serious crime) well isn't all crime serious,
The problem I still see is, that it's still gang-based, with drugs knife guns crimes and social media sites highlighting the so-called glory of being a gang member and kids picking it up as a way of life, Also Schools and what postcode area gangs the kids are from, I have 4 or 5 grandkids and they all go to the same high school, All say the same thing about kids from a part of Manchester don't mix in school and one wrong word can set the alarm bells ringing,

I won’t name him but one Mooner I met in a beer garden absolutely fucking hated him. I’d missed most of his shite.That's why I said it. The bloke turned out to be an even bigger **** than he was on here. 100% gammon.
From memory, he recommended Larnaca in Cyprus to me but perhaps he’d gone somewhere nice by accident.
