“What makes you sick is the whole thing will be referred to the police 'complaints' commission, as if the police are by default responsible for the actions of the animals thievign and driving like lunatics. A**e about face system-it should be more like the US where the cops can ram the lowlife off the road to ensure the safety of the rest of society.”

“Thiefs are scum. Most of us work hard to earn money to buy things and scumbags like this just think they can take it. Hope he spends a long time in prison but knowing our justice system they will give him community service so he can carrying on being a scum bag”

“If he'd rolled it into the path of an oncoming vehicle and an innocent driver had been killed, the police bashers would have been out in force.”

“Is that because the police and HDM are always to be believed?
Not saying that either are wrong but you never know.......”
