Al Bundy Posted September 12, 2023 Share Posted September 12, 2023 (edited) This is how shoplifters should be dealt with. No surprise it's created a protest, what a toilet the boroughs of London are becoming. https://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-12509491/Crowd-blocks-busy-Peckham-road-social-media-video-appearing-shop-owner-hands-womans-throat-new-footage-shows-trying-steal-store.html Edited September 12, 2023 by Al Bundy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chekhov Posted February 8 Author Share Posted February 8 (edited) Oh dear, the CoOp are in on it now. https://www.mirror.co.uk/money/co-op-wants-attacks-shopworkers-32074785 Can we just remind ourselves : 1 - It is already an offence to assault someone and rightly so (but any accused person is presumed innocent until anything is proved, and rightly so). 2 - It is already an offence to threaten someone and rightly so (but any accused person is presumed innocent until anything is proved, and rightly so, again). 3 - Bat an offence "to abuse someone" ? I mean, really ? Seriously ? And who gets to decide what abuse is ? Typical of this pathetic society we live in when anyone being upset is the ultimate sin. If you have a job dealing with the general public it's not all a bed of roses, you take the rough with the smooth. Man up (again), or go and get another job, how about a computer progammer working from home ? No risk of anyone "abusing you" there.
