I hope now that Labour are ejected that we can start to stamp on this sort of behaviour, but it's going to be a long slog frown

One of the comments asks if the louts have anything between their ears.

"A bullet would be a good start" would be my response to that.

Absolute scum, at what point in their tiny minds did they think this was a good idea, no doubt they'll get away with a slap on the wrists as well.

Can't they map their brains whilst showing pictures of violent behaviour then inject a disabling agent into the relevant grey matter that is most active.

Hope they are dealt with properly by an unsympathetic judge and a decent jail sentence results.

I had what I reckon is a good idea for the punishment of this -

They are 17 and 19 years old according to the article.

How about, if they have drivers licenses, they are revoked until the full costs of the mechanic, and time of the air ambulance is recovered in full directly from them - I am assuming we are talking a minimum of £3-5k here. Plus a generous £1000 donation to the air ambulance. If they own a car in their name, car is sold at auction to cover some of that cost.

Until that is paid in full, no drivers license.

This would be on top of 3 months community service.


Reality -

Suspended sentence for 1 year perhaps - no fine. frown

A 9mm disabling agent.

FFS, what is wrong with these scum? I hope they get their names and pictures published so that the parents of that poor baby (and anyone else who wants to)can go "have a chat"....

Automatic 6 month jail sentence for anyone interfering with the emergency services.
Or (this may seem weird to some), dye their heads bright blue so everyone can point and stare and see what tts they've been. Aimed at causing maximum embarrassment. Some see community service or ASBO's as a badge of honour.
Like this vvvvvv

I suspect slap on the wrist.

Drowning in acid is too good for them.

I used to live around the corner from where this happened, never saw any problems myself, in fact it's a very well-to-do area, maybe they only come out when the rest of us are at work?

Kent Air Ambulance are not exactly squeaky clean themselves, they often use dubious tactics to generate charitable income.

Example - school child falls over and breaks ankle, air ambulance dispatched and lands on school field. School is then encouraged to perform get involved with charity collections on behalf of air ambulance.

Whilst I am sure the service is needed, they attend an awful lot of non-life threatening injuries if they can get money out of it.

Scum!

like the idea of reclaiming costs though I would be happier to see them with bricks tied to their legs and dropped in the channel.. Hey ho - wishful thinking again...

To be fair though, it is a good cause that hopefully none of us will need but would be very grateful of in an emergency.

If they have to keep up their profile with some strategic deployments, so what?

Our local mountain bike trail has had so many air ambulance landings recently, they've now cleared an area an painted a big "H" on the ground. laugh

I don't think that is too dubious really.

I mean, there is no shortage of charities using emotional blackmail in TV adverts and chuggers etc..

As a motorist, I think we should support this no matter what, one day we might need it.
