Buzzin Disgrace

A sickening video was released today of a gang caught on CCTV camera, assaulting an innocent man in Bolton town centre.  The man was knocked to the ground and kicked unconscious before a girl robbed the victim of his money, and anything else she could find, while the thugs continued kicking the man in the head.

At Bolton Crown Court today, it was heard that GEMMA STAFFORD, 18, was the gang’s initial ringleader, she was the one who ran to the man in an aggressive manner before the thugs surrounded him.

Two of the yobs began to punch the victim in the head and then he was repeatedly thumped and kicked until he fell to the ground and was knocked unconscious.

One of the thugs, STUART SHAW ,20, continued to kick the man around the head while the evil bitch rifled through the victim’s pocket, stealing his money and cigarettes.

Just before they ran off, Shaw gave the man a running kick to the head before leaving him for dead in the street.

The other thugs were, ANDREW HARBOURNE, 19, from Burnley, who was given four years after pleading guilty to causing grievous bodily harm with intent and violent disorder.  He’ll be out in a couple of years, and still only 21, he can then return to the streets with probably a lot more knowledge from other criminals.

JOSHUA McERLEAN, 19, also from Burnley, and was also given four years after pleading guilty to causing grievous bodily harm with intent, robbery and violent disorder.  Same goes for him!

A 17-year-old, who’s name has not been revealed, was sentenced to 18-months in a detention centre after pleading guilty to causing grievous bodily harm with intent, robbery and violent disorder.  The public need to know who these thugs are, they should not have the right to remain unnamed.

What a complete waste of time and taxpayer’s money, it is a total embarrassement to be British when you hear of the sentencing other countries follow, we are just a joke to them, a country of thugs.

Fortunately, the victim, a 27-year-old man, only suffered minor injuries, but I am sure he is now fully aware of the injustice that has been done.

Stafford, the evil, sadistic female, was sentenced yesterday to just eighteen months in jail, after admitting to violent disorder and robbery.  Can you believe it, the four other gang members were given a total of thirteen years and six months last month.

Stafford had pretended to be a passer by when the police arrived, that was trying to help the victim as she was concerned!  Shaw just claimed to be too drunk to remember what happened!

How can these thugs get away with it, that was attempted murder, just one kick in the wrong place, it’s happened before, but as usual they are offered the lighter option of grievous bodily harm with intent.

What a bloody joke!  When is the government going to start listening to the people of it’s once great country and address the violence and yob culture we are now labelled with.

A policeman said after the case,

“The scenes on the CCTV are absolutely disgraceful.  The girl thought she would just help herself to the guy’s belongings as her mates give him a good kicking.

He could have been dead or dying yet she could not give too hoots about him.  His money and cigarettes were more important.  There’s just no such thing as the fairer sex these days.”

There probably would be more of the fairer sex, if we didn’t have to put up with these thugs being given menial sentences and then released back onto the streets, where we do not feel safe.

We want safe streets, where we can walk with our children, we want to feel safe in our own homes, we want to be able to know that our children can play outside safely.

Violent Crimes must be punished with sentences that fit the crime.  Our children are being beaten, stabbed and murdered on our streets and these thugs are getting away with it, it has to stop!

Over the past few years celebrity drug use has been at the forefront of public attention due to high profile stories.

In 2005, Kate Moss was, photographed allegedly snorting cocaine as well as Pete Doherty with his crack cocaine and heroin dependency. Now of course, we have Amy Winehouse who doesn’t care who knows she’s an addict, a great role model for our children, but it’s not just celebrities any more.

Today the heir of Tetra Pak, a multi billion pound business fortune and his wife have had the charges against them dropped, how can that be justified I wonder!

Hans Kristian Anders Rausing, 45, and his wife Eva Louise Rausing, 44, were arrested in April, when Mrs Rausing allegedly tried to smuggle crack cocaine and heroin into the American Embassy in London.

A search was then made on their £5 million house in Chelsea, where it was claimed that 0.2oz (5.63g) of crack cocaine, 0.1oz (2.9g) of heroin and nearly 1.8oz (52g) of cocaine were found on April 8.

Scotland Yard investigated the case and the couple were charged with possession, however, at the Westminster Magistrate’s Court, District Judge Timothy Workman has said that the charges against the couple would be formally discontinued at a hearing in August.

The couple actually met in rehab in the US, and the wife admitted that her drugs problems were not over.  The most ironic of this case is that the Rausing’s have been at the forefront of the battle against drugs, trying to steer young people away from taking the wrong path.

Unbelievably, Mrs Rausing, is the patron of a charity called ‘Mentor’, who’s mission is to prevent drug misuse and promote the health and well-being of young people.!

Why have they just been let off with a caution, could it be anything to do with his wealth?.  Surely the drugs laws are there to apply to everyone, but apparently not, celebrities and the rich do not come under the same rules as the rest of us it appears.

A grandmother, who was also a former policewoman, had been woken for the third time one evening by a group of drunken, loud students.

She got dressed and went outside and shouted,

“Why can’t you go back to where you come and make some noise there?  I bet your families and neighbours wouldn’t put up with it.

You don’t care about us and do just as you like.  What gives you the right to frighten my elderly neighbours, cause damage and keep us awake at night?”

The woman reported it to the police who came and moved the group of students on, but, it didn’t end there.

Four months later, the lady was arrested and accused of being a racist, as two of the students were Asians and had made a complaint to the police.

The lady was charged with using racially aggravated threatening words or behaviour under section 5 of the Public Order Act.

She denied the charge at the court hearing and eventually the Crown Prosecution Service, dropped the charges last week as there was little chance of conviction.

The grandmother is now filing a complaint about her treatment by the police, and good for her, this country is unbelievable.  I saw no mention of an arrest for the students for the disturbance they were causing!

I think everyone is getting a bit sick of the ‘Racist Card’ being used every time there is an incident, seems to me this is what is starting to make people racist.

Ryan Acaster, 17-years-old, was killed on Sunday when he rode his trail bike through woodland near Crossens in Southport, Merseyside.

A wire had been strung between two trees, about chest height on the disused track and Ryan ploughed into it.  The youngster was not wearing a helmet and suffered fatal head injuries as he was thrown from his bike.

Ryan had gone out in the morning and when he hadn’t returned about lunchtime, his father became concerned and went to look for him.  Ryan was found unconscious near his bike and a emergency helicopter was deployed.

Ryan was treated by the air ambulance crew and then taken to hospital but died without regaining consciousness.

Detectives are now trying to piece together the incident to see if the wire was a “booby trap” preventing youths from using the area as a racetrack.

Apparently, there have been several confrontations lately between the local farmers and trespassing youngsters.

The other theory is that the wire had been holding a sign warning of private property, but the sign had fallen off.

I know the youngsters can be a pain, riding unlawfully on private land, but I do hope this wasn’t put there deliberately by some disgruntled resident.  This sort of “booby trap” will either maim or kill, and they will have to live with that for the rest of their lives.

While the streets of the UK are in turmoil with daily stabbings and binge-drinking yobs, a 12-year-old girl was held at a Boots store on suspicion of shop-lifting after testing out a nail varnish!

The young girl, painted one of her finger nails at the Boots branch in Folkestone, Kent. She had opened a bottle of the varnish as she could not find a tester and was caught by a security guard.

She was then questioned by THREE police officers and held until her parents came to collect her and pay for the product.

Her parents were told that their daughter could be forcibly restrained as she was over 10-years-old despite her making no attempt to leave.

The parents have rightly, complained about the “heavy-handed” treatment and are demanding an apology from the police.

The girls mother said,

“(Her daughter) was scared and crying. The whole approach was very heavy handed.

I find it incredibly hard to believe this was the most serious incident going on for the police.

Frankly, this country has gone crazy. This is the sort of thing that just makes me want to pack our bags and leave as soon as (Her daughter) finishing her schooling.”

The 12-year-old said,

“I went into the shop and saw a nail polish which I thought looked alright. There were no testers so I put a tiny bit on my thumbnail. The security guard walked up behind me and said I had to pay for it or it would be theft.

I was really scared. I had no money on me so he said I had to come into the office.”

Her mother said,

“She was kept for an hour in a small office with the security guard and a manager and the police were called.

The security guard who caught her was grinning like he had caught a big fish. It was ridiculous.

At first there were three officers there and when we got there it was just one. The officer told us our rights.

One officer even told me that if I didn’t pay they would take (her daughter) in a police van to Folkestone Police station and charge her with theft.”

The girls parents paid £6.29 for the nail polish stated that she would never return to the store in question.

Maybe the girl was wrong to have just used it, but she had not tried to conceal it as far as I can tell, she seemed to have no intention of stealing the product.

We are forever hearing how stretched out police force is so were three police officers really necessary, how much did that cost the tax-payers?
