Firework throwing bastages


RedM

Recommended Posts

Driving thorugh Wakefield this evening I spot something burning in the road. Get closer and realise its a firework. I catch movement off to the side and some little arsehole throws a fierwork at the car.

 

Thankfully it bounced of the windscreen. Very thankfully in fact as I had my drivers window right open and had a been a few feet further along it would have come right into the cabin.

 

Anyway, we called the police before someone gets injured.

 

Why on earth are fireworks still for sale and how did they get them?

 

Little bastards. I'd love to start putting these wastes of oxygen into hospital.

You should ask Carl0s... He had a load of them the other week, emptied out the "gun powder" in his back yard and set fire to the pile with a lighter. Unfortunately he was a bit close when it exploded and came running in the house extactic about setting it off.

I kindly pointed out however he had half of his left scalp missing. I think 1 set of eyelashes had gone too. Not very cleaver and highly dangerous. Kind of a freaky buzz in a way.

Its the same every year.

My dog nearly has a heart attack every year because of all the a***holes setting of bangers. She actually crapped on the floor this year (the dog not the wife) :complain:

Fireworks are nothing but a pain, they create major noise pollution and are far too dangerous to be allowed to be sold to the general public IMO. I think they should be totally banned!

 

Kids put them into car petrol tanks, shoot them at cars and at houses, and aim rockets at cats!

 

Jesus, are you a middle-aged politician or something?

 

"I don't like this so I think everyone should be stopped from doing it!"

 

Football causes more death, destruction, and violence than pretty much anything else in the country. Did I hear a call for that to be banned...? Hmmm?

Ian,

 

On the news on Fireworks day, they mentioned that last year 1060 people were injured due to fireworks. What's the population of the UK at the moment? 60,000,000?? So that's like 0.00176% of the population you'll be upsetting by not banning fireworks.

Anyway isn't the whole bonfires night just a celebration of a 400 year old attempted terrorist attack? I wonder if we'll celebrate the recent terror attacks in a similar way in 400 years time?

Further to last night:

 

I now have a small dent in the bonnet by one of the washers. I thought the firework had hit the windscreen but it must have hit the bonnet first.

 

Its gone right through to the bare metal. Great. I'd have prefered to have been hit with a football TBH as now I've got to pay to get it fixed.

 

So well done those little wankers and their 'harmless' fun. Let's give em free fireworks next year. Maybe they'll blow their fucking hands off.

 

...and the police car crome unit never called back.

...and the police car crime unit never called back.

 

I've corrected the spelling, sorry.. but..

 

We've had wing mirrors smashed off both cars three times, and about six months ago Charlotte had her car broken into... that time the window had been smashed and the b@astards had obviously been all over the car - did the Police send out someone to fingerprint? no... but they wanted us to 'not touch the car' until they had seen it - what leave the car window open all night? should we leave the keys in it too? and they would 'call us at some point tomorrow' and tell us if they were going to come out... and if they were going to, whether it would be am or pm - so I'll take a day off work in case you can be arsed then?

 

So I basically told them they were useless, don’t bother logging it, why do you bother turning up for work etc. hung up on them...

 

The next day had a call from 'the nice police woman' who was very apologetic - from the Police?! I know I was taken aback to say the least - and she said she was very sorry they couldn’t come out and how sorry she was that blar blar other ‘crimes happening in Gosport that night‘, yeah right.... like in my street? to me? she said they would send out some forms and we must fill them in immediately and return them - basically listing the contents of the car... did the forms turn up? did I bother chasing them on it? what annoys me is we pay for this shit….

 

The last time we got a ‘victims support leaflet’ (I know…) from them was when Charlotte (again, sadly) had her wing mirror smashed off and her door kicked in, and on the envelope they spelt her name ‘Sharlote’ - does that say it all?

 

Sorry, bit of a rant but if I was doing 32 in a 30 zone you can bet your bottom dollar that little system would work like a dream… our stuff gets nicked… screw you… great country thanks…

 

Needless to say if anything happens to us now I don’t even bother ringing them.... they are a waste of space....

 

Half the time I wonder why we have jobs and pay taxes… claiming the dole and going ‘on the rob’ is just so easy these days….. I’m sure I could develop a healthy crack habit to pass the time…
