Just had a hectic night trying to console my girlfriend after some scrote nicked her handbag. It had her car keys, house keys, mobile, money and cards in, leaving her unable to get home from London to Southampton (travelcard swiped), unable to get into her house, into her car, call her landlord (his number was in the mobile) or generally do anything.
Consequently she now has to change all the locks on her house, wait days for new cards, get a new phone and lose a day of work.
There's some real cocks in the world. Castration with a rusty pair of shears is too good for them.

It kind of stops everything if a girls bag is nicked at least for a guy you will normally only lose or have nicked 1 vital item , keys, phone, wallet , for a woman it must be a nightmare having to replace all of these at the same time ,,, feckers why dont they get a life

It's a bugger that you can't have some kind of booby trap in it really.

There was a news paper article a while back and it said that on average a woman carries around £500 worth of stuff in her handbag and enough things to have her identity completely cloned with bills cards id and other things.

Bastards if they ever get caught I would put my pointy boots on and kick them in the nuts hard and repeatedly.

Have a look at the thread about the bank robbery - some people think stealing is cool.

Are you at a loose end on Saturday by any chance,Stacey?










Seriously though,wife and the girls where she works had a free safety advisor type visit not so long ago,come in and give them a lecture.He advised to not put all your things in one bag to avoid just this sort of thing.Most of the girls couldn't see the practical side of that though.It really is a bit of a problem for women isn't it?I hate the way it makes them easy targets.I'm always worried when the wifes out shopping on her own,or even when she's out in company these days.

That's the same logic a people who commit insurance fraud use. It doesn't harm anyone but a 'faceless corporation' either, except we all have to pay higher insurance premiums as a result.

Theft is theft, not matter who you stealing from it will hurt somebody.

Apologies to PhillT.

I should have started my post by saying how sorry I was to hear of this incident. Suffering any sort of crime like this makes one angry and can also lead to a very unpleasant feeling of vulnerability. But once the practical issues have been sorted, that feeling normally goes fairly quickly. I hope so in this case.

I was just thinking that....

Nick a woman's handbag and credit cards and the PH hang 'em and flog 'em brigade come out in force...

But armed robbers kidnap someone, and gag and tie up several terrified workers again at gunpoint, steal £40,000,000 and that's OK because there's no harm done......


It's a strange world....

Sorry to hear about your girlf's loss. What a pain.

I am actually firm believer of the Arabic punishment. Caught steeling? Easy, just cut their hands off. That'll teach them.

God, scrotes really get me going...

Cheers for the sympathy. She's feeling better now, having JUST managed to get back in to her house and change her clothes/get cleaned up. Major pain in the arse tho. Ladies - guard your bags!

Unless it's downloading music, in which case you're just making a copy and not removing it from anybody.

So that's that whole argument laid to rest forever!


Back to topic - sorry to hear this PhillT. We need Police on the streets and tougher punishments for criminals I say.
