When we catch these balls of scum lets stop mollycoddling them and just throw them in a vat of acid.          Of course thats after they have been shot.     

Geoff, that would abuse their human rights!!

I would prefer alive. Corrected it for you

The EU can shove that legislation where the sun doesn't shine for burglars

I would prefer catch them, strip them naked, break their fingers, but fuck them with a cactus, lop off their balls with bolt cutters, stuff them in their mouths, rough up their skin with an electric sander, lower them into a big vat of salt, then vinegar then and only then......Shoot the feckers!

This really is a fascinating subject, no really,  these figures are the ones used by respective insurance companies to calculate their insurance cover rates.

Now, if you assume that insurance companies arrive at the 'high spots' for burglary by applying a basic calculation of, number of burglaries/population, there will always be a case where a low population area that suffers maybe 3-4 crimes per annum will appear as a 'hot spot'. BUT, if you apply the same formulea to a densly populated town/city then those areas may appear to be a lesser crime risk.

I reckon this theory is confirmed by the fact that Apperly Bridge is now considered a crime 'hot spot'.

There are less than 60 people living in and around my village...ergo 5 crimes a year would result in a ratio of  8.3r %  if that figure is then applied to a larger, densely populated town/city it would be tantamount to a bloody revolution.

I suspect that statistics can be made to prove any point you like.....or am I becoming more cynical

Huddersfield used to be a nice town to live in. It really is the gateway to the Pennines. Easy access to Manchester and Leeds, lovely scenery and not much going on really.

For whatever reasons over the past few years its just got bad. This isn't politically correct, but in years gone by the scum were kept in their own localities. Then the property boom kicked off and council land was sold off to developers who promptly built expensive houses, and the council rehoused the scum around Huddersfield. So areas with low crime now have high crime rates.

We've been looking at moving and you really have to be precise about where you move because there's just too much scum around you. Unless we move to the outskirts which we've been seriously contemplating.

We used to have a bit of a drug and drink problem round near the shops close to where i live, and there is a path that goes behind the house which is where the bike garage is and also my gym.
Now a lot of the little scotes that would hang about there, I knew from working the door, i had only just retired from 'bouncing ' so one evening i popped round to the corner shop, had a word with Mr Patel and 'asked' him to refraine from selling vodka to underage kids... he seemed reluctant at first but after some gentle encouragement agreed. Now you have to show your OAP pass to get so much as a can of shandy.

My next port of call was round the back and a gaggle of 'Yoofs' again i encouraged them that this was not a place that they would like to hang out, seeing as it was all dark and secluded and sometimes really bad things happen to people loitering in those sorts of places.

I am a firm believer that one should be responsible for where one lives, I even run the local niebourhood watch *snigger*... in these dark times, certain elements of society, understand just one thing... Fear... and i'm more than happy to oblige.

I was born, bred and raised in Huddersfield, its my home town, my daughters live there....the last time I took a drive through the town centre I just didn't recognise the place.....Bloody hell even Rushworths store has disappeared along with its distinctive round clock, it was opposite Burtons and the Starlight disco and ...and ....and

Most of the crime stats which are put out and made accessible to the public are manipulated and misleading. I wouldn't go drinking in Halifax where I work, it's a dangerous, volatile town rife with scum who wouldn't bat an eye at robbing or assaulting you after dark. We're told that crime has been reduced, but we all know that in reality it hasn't, the only thing which has been reduced is the number of crimes which are recorded, thereby statistically suggesting that crime has been reduced.

Old Coney, if where you live only suffers about 5 crimes per year, you are living in paradise. 


I was brought up here, why the hell we moved is anyone's guess!!

TBH I don't recall any crimes in this village in the last couple of years,....really..... the figure of 5 that I used was just to show comparison.

And Steve, I'm sitting here guessing that your reason for leaving that part of the world must have been a goodun  I too know Halifax very very well, as I worked there for eleven years


Gill and I are visiting Cornwall in June this year and we just can't wait

A typical 24hrs in Halifax consists unfortunately of multiple burglary's, maybe one robbery, more domestic assaults than I have fingers on two hands, alcohol related fights resulting in anything from a bruised ego to murder, so many suspected drug deals taking place you wouldn't believe it was possible. Thats just the crime related matters, then there's the multiple reports of anti social driving from some nuggets, it goes on and on. If you think about it too much it can really get you quite depressed knowing how violent our society is today. I've just become conditioned to it and unfortunately it's just the norm these days in most major cities and towns.
