When is a crime not a crime

when it doesn't happen here

Which goes a long way to explaining why the police are so reluctant to chase after hit and run drivers,vandals,break-ins...they have too many false claims to already deal with.

hhhhm, I bet some of these people will be the first to moan in public when the police do not have time to attend to a real crime...

Maybe If everything wasnt so bloody expensive. Maybe if they stopped. Brainwashing The Public. Oh here comes The Weekend. Texting. Mobile Phones . Drink Drink Drink. Ect Ect ECT. Then Maybe. There wouldn't be this problem

Agreed!

It was suggested to me in the washed phone thread that I claim on my insurance for the phone concerned..I wonder how many would have made a false claim to the police to get the reference number so they can claim for a 'stolen' phone on the insurance?

I have had such suggestions made about my no fault car crash in 2003 and when our wall was damaged by the council last year about over egging about damage to me and my property.In fact my husband wanted me to over do(over act)the mild necklash injuries I had to the doctor so as to raise the claim...tsk,tsk.

I of course refuse to go down that avenue.

So I hope that those found out are given very strong sentences by the courts because it is time to nip this attitude in the bud.
