Isn't that the PWC that was stolen by ramming through the doors?

I suppose a public flogging is out of the question?

That's not actually a bad idea, expect the human rights tree huggers would be up in arms though, a bit of corporal punishment is just what this country needs right now.

I think that you are all being a bit harsh and insensitive with your comments on this poor guy!!

In his youth he probably was from a broken home and had no father figure to look up to, his mother had to work very hard every week signing on for her benefits so she could feed him and his siblings, all who probably have different fathers who they have had very little contact with, but have seen a lot of uncles coming and going in their lives.

I'm sure that he is very sorry for doing what he has done and all the upset he has caused to the people he has stolen from and that he would welcome community service as a punishment so that he can give something back to society.

Please do take this into consideration when judging scrotes.. I mean those less fortunate than ourselves

Surely keel hauling would be a suitable punishment given the crime?

Absolutely, this week we have seen 15 years for child abuse resulting in the child's death and leaving the poor little mites body for TWO YEARS....15 YEARS its a bloody joke.

Unbelievable, I hope I am alive for the revolution...

The scrots don't understand this idea of punishment.

It has a certain poetic justice to it.
