By the sounds of things, what you would do to them,
You don't have to look far!

I suggest mounting razor blades under expensive hifi/AV equipment, as long as you rarely move it. :strange:

I am sure that the comments above are a little tongue in cheek, but residents do need to be aware that under the occupiers liabilty act 1984 states that you have a duty of care over non visitors i.e tresspassers and therefore if they are injured at your property you may be liable.

You just (still) need to be very careful about what you say afterwards.....

Read this CPS Statement.

What is 'reasonable force'?
So long as you only do what you honestly and instinctively believe is necessary in the heat of the moment, that would be the strongest evidence of you acting lawfully and in selfdefence (sic).
Is it possible to instinctively pre-mount razor blades under expensive equipment in the heat of the moment?

I'd have a duty of care over anyone who breaks into here. I'd care enough for them to call the ambulance after i'd finished with them.
An officer of the law, in another jurisdiction, once told a friend of mine who had proclaimed that he would take similar action - "If you do that, then ring me before you ring us."
I'd rather be tried by 12 than carried by 6. I've armed myself in preparation of intruders........I married a redhead :)
And what does that mean? "I married a redhead?"!!!! Utter barhooks redheads have tempers,just ask my EX husband!

After i'd enjoyed mesen belting 10 ton of shite out of them,i'd hook them up to the mains and send a few volts thru where they keep their brains,assuming they have any. Then and only then,would I let my 2 lads have a go. I've worked hard to get the little hovel I call home,no-one is coming in here and nicking owt.


(By the way,LOVED you in Happy Days,can I have your autograph next time you're in Blighty please? xx)

I looked into the security paint and nail strips to put on top of our fence as someone kept using the garden as a shortcut. I didn't bother in the end as I got the impression it was very hard to cover yourself legally.

I'm redhead and have an amaaaazing temper - just takes a helluva LOT to make me lose it. Some shitheel breaking into my house however, is guaranteed to do this. It's their own fault what happens after that. Yeah. *nods*

I live on Parkside and was burgled on Monday night.

Shovel to the patio doors...

They were on foot, so definitely local.
They were disturbed/startled by something as they ran off with many things including the 42" HDTV, but they only got 20 metres before they dropped it, so they kindly kicked in the screen so we have a lovely Airwalk size 6 foot print in the middle of the (broken) screen.

Watching the news is interesting as the presenters are on crack now :)

...and on a related note, the same night a few doors down some bugger(s?) decided to run a brick all round one of the neighbour's car, thus requiring a new paint job.

What's happening to Parkside...used to be so non-violent lol.

That's shit...really sorry to hear that mate. As you know, I've suffered the same and it wasn't a nice experience.

A few years ago Parkside didn't register at all on my radar as far as trouble was concerned. Worrying times.

the longer we tolerate this the longer it will go on.....
Can we get a bulk buying Forum Discount on baseball bats? :D
haha no i don't mean that - i mean the longer we allow people to raise their kids into these scumbags / we have such a liberal attitude to the biggest failure of the 20th century - the rehabilitation of offenders act.

Still I think in light of recent incidents/court cases that if most of us caught a scumbag in our houses now they would be leaving on a stretcher needing a respirator at the very least without fear of reprisal.
