Lack Of Police Support

[Tony de Wonderful]

I'm going to make a long story short... Had some punk kids (about 15 - 16 years old) on a bus abusing some old lady.

Saying disrespectful shit and spraying deodorant on her back while they where sitting behind her.

I roughed up one of the punk kids giving all the mouth "leader" and searched for ID or a phone in his bag. There was about 5 of them.

They where like "Mate, BRO, mate, you cant do that."

My reply was "Yeah and you cant abuse your elders either, learn some respect this is a f**king citizens arrest for disturbing the peace."

Anyway at this time bus driver stopped and told them to get of the bus.

I found a phone called his "mum" in phone book and told her what had happened...

She did not give a flying f**k so I told her no wounder why her son is a prick with a mother like her self.... End story.

That's about as much as I could do.... Some really retarded parents out there.

Reminds me of a scene a few months ago whilst waiting for the ferry at the bottom of Barrack Street.

A couple - both about 17-18 -, both drunk, being extremely abusive to an older couple; swearing, insults etc. Not sure why but something had been said. What was +100 times embarrassing was that the older couple had two girls with them ~6-8 y/o who had to endure the expletives from these two foul mouthed kids. Totally shameless behavior. The younger guy threatening to beat up the older guy. I mean WTF who says that to a guy who has his kids with him? It's cowardly.

Cmon 8:30pm on a weekend is hardly late. When I was a kid I was allowed out till 10:30pm and that was back when I was 11, a 7:30pm curfew would be a joke

Why does a child need to be out roaming the streets when its dark?

They are roaming the streets coz they have nothing to do....so they make their own fun which is normally someone else problem....basically, they will get up to no good.

[R DIRTY 3]

Kids have no respect for their elders these days.

When i was younger i was certainly no angel (I know that might be hard to believe but its true) but we were certainly taught respect and manners.

[Ehgriez]

comes down to bad parenting, plain and simple.

Not much you can do unfortunately.

[gersfan]

no it would be safe

because the majority of ppl under 16 that stay out past 7:30 are up to no good. eg spud guns, drinking, egging, tagging, and just being a general nuisance.

and if under 16yr olds still think it is bad when there 18 well they will have voting power and the law will be scrapped

and any way kids have MSN, facebook, myspace, SAU to communicate on so they dont need to be hanging out on the streets

a curfew would give power to the police and force parents to be responsible both good things

wouldn't work. Don't agree with it. 7:30 is very early you can't just confine people to their houses for such a long time.

Doesn't say alot about your parents to be honest. I think a curfew is a great idea, unless there accompanied by an adult.

[Ehgriez]

if i was out at 11:30 when i was 11 i would of been shot.

+1 ! lol

I've never had a curfew.... Never done anything bad either.

Quite the angel aren't I?

To OP, sucks balls though.

I bet if I told my teenage kids to hide in the bushes on Albany Highway and throw rocks at cop cars only, they would be arrested. Do you think they would let that ride like they did with Brad? I doubt it.

Why then should these pricks get away with it?

It seems like the paperwork would have been to much for them.

[Tony de Wonderful]

Why does a child need to be out roaming the streets when its dark?

To get drunk and have fun.

When I was 15 we used to go out binge drinking in the local park.

Part of growing up.

Never caused a nuisance like throwing rocks or anything.

Also caused by those who do nothing but breed continuously like a bug so they can continue to leech off center link child support payments.

Also, how much effort would they put in IF it was the policeman's wife and kid who the rock was thrown at?

Tony, i agree drinking way too much is all part of growing up and i accept that....but throwing rocks at cars which can and has killed in the past....that is way over a line.

TenFour....."Quite the angel aren't I?".....you can lie to your parents, but dont lie to us mate LOL

How the fk do people get off throwing rocks at cars, seriously...

[Passive]

Hey brad, sucky story.

It happened to phil and i a few years ago, im not going to go into details, but yeah, luckily the car wasnt damaged.

Some kids are up to no good.

But i was always extremely well disciplined as a kid, always had a curfew, always taught to respect the elders even with small things like giving up your seat on the bus.

Im only 21 and most kids these days make me want to throw rocks at their faces, they agitate me so much. Then again i still know plenty of people my age or older with no respect for anyone or anything

But hey Brad, least you guys are ok No serious injuries.

It's what groups of undisciplined and unsupervised kids and young men do...they egg each other on to more and more daring/reckless activities. On their own they probably wouldn't do it.

To the Op,

Next time don't call the police while you had them all sitting there, im sure you know this now. You could:

1. Rob them and search for ID... lol If you find ID, take it and give a "threat" if you see them hanging around again you will blah blah blah..

2. Also you could do the classic call there parents on the phone you find then smash the phone in front of them.

3. If they have a watch or some chains/rings or something just f**king take it and say "This is compensation for the damage you have caused to my car"

4. And if they had nothing worth taking just take their shoes... Lets hope there wearing there best trainers! haha

People should add to this list, "What to do when kids throw rocks at your car and get caught"...

Yes I'm a bad example but im sure they will be going home thinking twice about throwing rocks at cars.

Not defending the cops... in my experience they have become bone lazy... they use the excuse that pursue something through legal channels to justify doing nothing at all...

Going against the grain here, I was a bit of a lout in my younger days, like most of you probably... got drunk in parks at 15, being loud and obnoxious (no different to today actually)... We used to get hassled by the cops a bit, which just drives you to hide better... maybe what they are trying to achieve... go to a mates house instead of the park...

I know that then, if the cops called my parents and told them I had been seen throwing rocks at a car, or even if it was suspected that I did it, my parents would have crucified me... and I think that today most parents would...

I know that if the cops had taken legal action, the parents would have lawyered up, and the case would be shot down... but I reckon in 90% of cases, a call to the parents to come and pick their drunk child up who is suspected of thowing rocks at cars would have had the desired outcome... but the cops would rather wait until the kids get into break and enter, and then take action...

And if they call the parents, and they don't give a shit, nothing is really lost is it...

I used to have respect for GD cops, but now, I have little confidence...

Cheers,
