michael Posted September 9, 2009 Share Posted September 9, 2009 http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/uk/8244997.stm Mock muggings should be staged across the UK to test the public's willingness to aid victims and report crimes, a charity has said. The group Witness Confident says it wants to challenge a "walk-on-by" culture to street crime. "Don't be a have-a-go-hero unless you really know what you are doing" Expect reports of mock muggers being put in hospital and people who know what they are doing getting into trouble.

stupra Posted September 9, 2009 Share Posted September 9, 2009 Bit crazy really . I have been in trouble myself for stopping a mugging, and for slapping a women beater. Doesn't really make it worthwhile . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chris Wilson Posted September 9, 2009 Share Posted September 9, 2009 I got within a day of going to court after helping some dozy Bobby arrest a car thief in Manchester, plus a ruined pair of trousers and a jacket. Doubt I'd get involved again without very good cause, or being very sure I could bugger off into the ether without any awkward questions or statements. Sad, but that's the UK justice system 2009.

PeteA Posted September 9, 2009 Share Posted September 9, 2009 And now we have the notion of staged muggings, joe public has an even better reason to ignore scuffles. Maybe thats the real plan? The group suggesting it are probblay criminal masterminds. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
