  • Confused why you're wound up about ACAB and also what that's got to do with "Why do you care about probably life numbers reducing". Also not sure what that bit really means TBH.

    key immobiliser and currently has three lock on it, none of which is much good if someone pulls a blade on you at a set of lights.

    Yeah but it would be one less moped jacked for jacking phones and other bikes. Maybe get a GPS tracker too.

  • The curse of auto correct and fat fingers. Im not sure why anyone who goes around posting all coppers are bastards would be concerned about falling police numbers. The point about the key immobiliser is my scooter already has about as much security as you can fit to a bike. GPS ain’t going to stop people knicking scooters.
    One of the problems with these arseholes going around grabbing iPhones and battering members of the public is theyre not in organised gangs they are in fairly shambolic low grade criminal groups which makes traditional intelligence gathering very difficult.

  • I think you can support the idea of policing but disagree with how its done ... no?

    And no, GPS won't stop it getting nickedΒ β€” but might help police locate stolen mopeds and the thugs you're so keen to see prosecuted.

    True they're low-grade, street thugs but they're usually directly or indirectly related to groups involved in broader and much more serious types of crime. What do you think they do with the phones? Sell them on eBay?
