You are Roderick Spode and I claim my £5.
But seriously, I know where you’re coming from. If it’s not pure selfishness then they’re congenital idiots. I’m not sure which is worse.

We could always put more of these on the streets.
An Exocet missile would be more effective!It can when others can't,
It will when others won't,
It goes where others don't.

The gun on the roof of a UK police car has one obvious fault, it would require an occupant of that car to get out of it to use it, which is increasingly getting to be a rare occurrence, unless of course they are at a petrol station buying goodies!

sad to see a serious thread being turned into a circus by the same old culprits...cornwall and devon are being trashed at the moment by visitors that think they can do what they like as " THERE ON HOLIDAY"...
the litter crappo left on beaches dunes and the moors is unbelievable...ADD to that the travellers have arrived for their annual holiday and are happy to park up in city parks and recreation spaces..upsetting the local tribe.they stay for a week and leave just as the law gets up behind them to move 2 miles down the road and start the process again..weve lost control of decency

Loose a couple of Exocets at them and they would be gone for good It can when others can't,
It will when others won't,
It goes where others don't.
