Nothing about what the 'little angel' got for threatening staff.  >:(
The little s**t had been up before for several assault offences so why did the judge describe him as "vulnerable"?

It will not be long before this country is full of vigilante groups because everyone is getting sick of the way the judicial system supports the 'baddies' and the victims of crime get NOWT.

Neighbourhood Watch schemes are now getting more heavy handed, and who can blame them!

Unc, & Anyone else,

How to use Tinyurl, (only if you didn't already know)

To put the TinyURL on your toolbar open this page:
http://tinyurl.com/
Scroll down to where it says ‘Add TinyURL to your Tools bar’
Click and hold then drag the blue ‘TinyURL’ to your Links toolbar or Bookmark toolbar and drop it.
That only needs to be done once and then, you are cooking with gas.
~
Whenever you want to shrink a long url to send to someone:
~
Open the web page that you want to refer to.
Click ‘TinyURL’ in toolbar.
The Tiny page will appear and the url will be displayed and the shortened version, which will be automatically copied to the clipboard.
Go back to your post where you want to paste it and set cursor then right click and select ’paste’.
~
So it is:
Click ‘TinyURL’
R click where you want to put it
Select ‘Paste.’

Gawd,  what happened to the days that if you got a clip round the ear by the local bobby then you wouldn't dare tell your parents cause you knew damn well youd get no sympathy and probably end up with either a clip on the other side or a sore butt.

The lad claimed he had a gun, and had a history of threatening and several previous convictions of assaulting adults... yet its the 999 response officer that ends up in jail for 12 weeks.

Quote
His barrister Bernadette Baxter has said he will appeal today's conviction.

Ms Baxter described the incident as a "profound tragedy when one weighs it against the positive good character and contribution this young man has made to society".

I hope that that they do appeal and that a judge and jury with common-sense are in attendance.
This could totally ruin the life of a previously unblemished career and have a huge impact on his family...
whilst the 12 y/o no-mark learns that its ok to carry on drinking vodka and assaulting adults.
