Thread: Flogging to good for some

Lignum, I think you need to move to a middle clas neighbourhood.

These sorts of things don't tend to happen to one there.

Trust me, I'm speaking from experience.

(Like I've said before, I'm sorry about your loss)

One thing that has always concerned me is how well cars burn, I can see why the motor sport boys go to great lenghts to get rid of as much flamable stuff off the car as they can.

Well i was stunned at the severity and what little remained. Mine was a 82 Commodore so their was more metal but even then it was just a shell and that was it. All the glass had just melted into the body. Metal, plastic and rubber is now part of the bitumen. The only thing that was recoverable was about $15 in change Ill clean it up and get a Lotto ticket with it

Sad thing is i am Mordialloc is a nice beachside suberb and their is hardly any trouble here. I was just the unlucky one.

One of my mates has an interesting view of justice.

he recons that young lout that is proven to display vandalistic / arsonistic tendencies should have special delayed justice.

so young 15 year old burns your car down.... gets caught....normal ordinary jjustuce system operates.... then when he has owned his first decent car for a few short months... a man from the government comes one saturday afternoon and burns his car down in his own driveway...... while you watch.


in the short term perhaps they should be sentenced to wearing an ipod full of val dunican 24/7 till they see some sence or their brain explodes which ever comes later.

cheers

Sorry to see your car and router burnt out mate

Cheers DJ

Whatever became of the quaint old practice of chaining these little barstools in stocks in the town sqare then pelting them with tomatoes etc? Bring it back and stuff the bleeding hearts!

That of course would be after the poor victim had 10 minutes alone with the t*rd.

I too am sorry to hear about this senseless act - like the others, I would like an opportunity to explain to these idiots in a non violent way the error of their ways.

I might have to belt then around the ears with a piece of redgum 4X2 to get their attention firstly though so they hear the message clearly.

Is that the remains of a router?

Sorry to hear Lig. Hey, it could have been a lot worse, imagine if you'd left the Domi in the car after taking her out to see a movie or something!

My thoughts exactly - it would have been too awful if Lig's new SWMBO () was in the ex Commodore. The loss of a Triton (?) isn't good, but it's a heck of a lot less of a loss than a Dom...

I was away for a few days at the start of the week and Domi was in the boot as i never leave her home alone. The night i got back she stayed in the boot:eek: Never again

But it could have been tragic. I stuffed up the bin pick up day and had it pushed up againsed the window waiting for it to be collected. It was their for a week and i got sick of it and arainged an extra pick up on Friday. And it was full of all the goodies we throw out. Dry timber, oily rags, old thinners tins, newspapers etc. If the little pyropricks had tourched that, it would have been a matter of minutes that where i sleep was up as well. Having no car sucks, but as i said, thank god no one was hurt
