Amen to that!

Have to say, hope they've caught the right guy for a number of reasons.

Blue, another thread putting yourself in hot water? Personally, I've known hard drug users in the past, and despite not agreeing with what they do, it's their life, and some hard drug users have their uses. I've also known (and been friends with) prostitutes in the past. I wouldn't touch them with a barge pole, but that doesn't mean they're necessarily bad people.

I wonder if the headlines were reading "Vigilante WVM knocking bikers off!" Would your thoughts on the subject of vigilanties be the same? Or are you only wanting to turn a blind eye when it doesn't directly affect you?

I am all in support of a bit of vigilantism if targeted at the correct groups myself!!

I ought to point out here that I am not a secret serial killer in my spare time!!! But I’d tend to turn a bit of a blind eye if I was the law on this one … I certainly wouldn’t direct much effort at solving it in a prompt manner … I think the limited resources they have could/should be directed at much more important cases …

hmmmm. Conroversial to say the least.

Geez Blue......

What this case should do is prompt the legalisation of Prostitution and Brothels.

Then the girls working would be safer and healthier.

Taxman would get his cut too.

Dont have time to go into it in detail right now, but hey it works in other parts of the world.

Eradicating these associated problems is what the police force is trying to do isn't it?!!? ... I know it is controversial ... but as I see it this chap is giving them a helping hand that is further than the law can stretch!

Everyone has been quick to jump down my throat, but no-one has said why these views are stupid?! :P

Because you are condoning the killing of someone's daughter/ sister / mum. The term knobfaced knobster springs to mind.
