Quite simply when I get my car, hopefully in the next couple of weeks, I am spending £100 on a blank firing replica, glock or something as small and strapping it to the underneath of my seat. If someone tries to **** with me then I am gonna fire it out of the window and see how fast they ******* run before I mow them down! I am not gonna be car jacked and let the ******* get away with it! Luckily I live in the South East so not one of the hot spots but still never know!I aint gonna bother with martial arts b0ll0cks, I wanna scare the ***** if it happens to me. Blank firers aren't illegal and I wont be carrying it on my person so hopefully shouldn't get nicked apart from if I ever fire it at scum! Perhaps Burr could tell me if I'm gonna get nicked for having it in my car if I ever got searched?

Living in Northern Ireland fortunately we do not see too much in the way of car-jacking off the street(lots of armed police and soldiers)but we may have the highest rate of "joyriding"in the UK.Lots of people have said "shoot the B**tards"but this is a reality in NI.These hoodlums are shot in the legs etc by paramilitary organizations for anti social behaviour but then claim off the Northern Ireland Office and end up driving a nicer car than you do.Alternatevly they end up in a young offenders centre learning how to get round more sophisticated security devices etc etc.The government in my opinion should take the american example in the case of car theft i.e grand thieft auto which I think is 5-10 in jail not fuc**ng community service(no time off for good behaviour).I could also tell you a true story about someone catching one of these sub-human scum trying to steal their car biffing him and ending up being charged with ATTEMPTED MURDER,but this makes me really angry

mick-s, valid point about NI, but without dragging this off topic the paramilitary shootings are only to protect the highly profitable trade that the paramilitaries have in stolen vehicles,drugs, extortion etc.

Agree with the FUBAR attitude of the authorities to car crime.
I happened to run into the cop who had taken my statement after a car jacking, after i'd told him i'd got an insurance pay out and bought a new Scoob his response was "well it all worked out well for you then". I daren't post my response to him on a public BBS. [img]images/smilies/mad.gif[/img]

Luke, is that a definite answer because u know the law? I know I would get done for firing it but I would only do that if I was car jacked and claim I was protecting my property and my life. Would I definately get nicked for having it in the car if the magazine was kept seperate to the gun is what I really wanna know? I know it sounds extreme/nutty, but if you pull a baseball bat or a golf club and they are armed you are probably still gonna get shot so I would rather have a stronger deterent because they will think about it more when facing someone who is already pointing a gun at them and has fired a shot in the air first, rather than someone waving a big stick at them! Plus the noise of discharging the blank should attract enough attention to add to putting the car jackers off. Plus u r very unlikely/unlucky to come across car jackers with guns and ones armed with baseball bats are going to be reluctant to take their chances with a raging big b@stard pointing a gun at them which as far as they know is real! The suggestions of just walking away I'm afraid dont work with me, if that makes me a lesser person then so be it but I can't stand by and let someone rob me and get away with it without trying to defend myself!
though i'm not so small and don't hang about.

Two points:
People do have the right to defend their homes against burglars, people have got away with kicking the **** outta them in the past I'm sure. Some guy (a farmer I think) even shot some-one, not sure if he got away clean though... Some cars are worth a **** load, why should it be any different.
Other point: For anything substantial to come from a Hijacking there would have to be witnesses. If there are witnesses, then it will be proved that little sweet Jonny got what he deserved. If there are no witnesses then the world is your oyster...
A wise man once said: "Killing someone, thats the hard part. Getting away with it, thats easy. As long as you're not there at the scene of the crime with a smoking gun in your hand."
I WILL NOT LET THESE KIND OF PEOPLE PUSH ME AROUND!!!
"Thud." -> sound of me dismounting the soap box... After strangling some-****ing **** **** after he ****ing tried to ********* me and my ***** car
Edited after I noticed you can't write sh 1 t when you mean chitt.

pslewis - wasnt there a P1 carjacked last year by a bunch of t055ers in an Escort RS Turbo in Guildford (Surrey), who hit the P1 then nicked it. It is not quite an epidemic, but its getting worse nd its country wide. It happens all over the place.
Edited to say that there was also an M3 taken from a lady on this BBS too in Surrey i think.

I know what you're getting at with the farmer, Tony Martin, was convicted of killing one and injuring a second career criminal.
It had not been the first time that the farmer had been the target of criminals and took steps to defend himself and his property.
The shootings took place in the farmers house, so no argument about the criminals being in his house.
Initially he got convicted of murder and got life.
After an appeal and huge public uproar the sentence was 'reduced' to 5 years and manslaughter.
Human rights, and all the other liberal soppy sh1te we have in the modern society, is all well and good but it's about time criminals had theirs revoked.
There seems to be a dim view by the courts that the police are there to deal with the criminals and members of the public are there to be walked over by criminals.
When the public turns the tables of the criminals, suddenly it is the criminals that are the victims of society.

Plewis were I live which is a nice typical suburban family area out of the city center we had in the last 2 weeks 1 car jacking and 6 houses broken into so they could get the car keys and take the cars.
The police officer I spoke in the Impreza said "If you get chance in this situation have a good go at them its thought by the courts to be reasonable force."
As for moving why, the criminals use cars to get to were they are going to commit crime and as for car jacking you might be in a strange area on business.
So to some up, don’t use you car, don’t be female, don’t drive at night, move somewhere were there are no other people and for that matter don’t leave the bomb shelter you bought from the government.
