suggestion :

1 catch the little ******s

2 take out 10 miles to sea and chuck over the side with a mobile phone which will only call RNLI

3 let them listen to the recorded message " you call is important to us but some ***** nicked out money and we can't afford the fuel to come out to you - have a crap day "

simples !

I object to the assumption that the thief is British  >>:-(--- that collection box has been there around 50 years and no British thief has touched it so far!!!  <*<

The thieves when caught, should be made to eat the coins they left, if they want money, feed it to them.

we could also chop off their hands ! having had our daughters car broken into this monday we are well aware of the damage these low life forms are capable of ! thankfully ive managed to repair the damage to her back door , and fit a second hand drop glass bought from a local salvage yard , it still cost her a days pay , plus 18 quid for the new glass . yes id love to chop their hands off & tie them to a break water for a few high tides , maybe then they might just think of the hurt and damage they cause to the law abiding members of our society ? ?  <*<

unfortunately unlikely to happen.

1. would require plod to log off facebook and actually do something other than just give out reference numbers for insurance companies [unless of course a TV film crew is around]

2. would then require C[riminal] P[rotection] S[ervice] to decide to prosecute

3. would then need court to convict and sentence [ say you're sorry]

4. then of course the human rights lawyers would be in like a shot

realistically the best option is find the little sod yourself, and then introduce their kneecaps to either Mr Black & Decker, or to Mr Browning.

messy -- painfull -- highly effective !

...Hi guys...

A shocking crime indeed...But who is the lowest of the low...
Is it these despicable thieves or is it the lawyer who will stand up in court and defend them...
My Family were involved in a court case involving a local low life junky who was continually shouting threats and abuse at our kids as they went to school each day...
His lawyer done a deal with the court in which he pleaded guilty to Breach of The Peace and was given a 6 month suspended sentence...2 days later we were back to square one and the abuse was continuing...
I regard his lawyer to be every bit as low as the low life junky himself...

...Best Regards...Norry...

Yes, it was a despicable act. But queuing up to devise supposedly more and more appropriate punishments doesn't really help does it? At what point is somebody going to suggest stoning the culprit to death?

Our mate....Captain Jimmy   {-) ...& thats no pun......said ...

But--   - Who ever the Thief is--- it's a good case for a keel hauling

The only problem with such actions..... 'keel hauling' is that the scoundrel did not die from lack of oxygen.... >>:-( but much later from blood poisoning from the toxins in the barnacle encrustation's under the hull  inflicted to the persons body.......O0 ....Derek

I know the very BOX as I have passed it many time during my holidays in Poole where we used to have a caravan.

You can actually hear your money drop into it  (being metal) and viewing the problem from a different angle, I wonder how often it is emptied.

It is rather tempting fate to have a container of money outside of a building in today's climate, no matter how good the lock might be.  I do hope they work out something better as they are dependant on these very contributions to help save lives.

Scum bags are not just a British  problem, we have them here too. Few years ago, a child fell into a gravel pit and drowned, passers by pulled her body out of the water and a woman who worked in the ER of our local hospital got to work and revived her before the Medics arrived, after the Ambulance had gone with the girl to the Hospital, the nurse discovered that someone had stolen her handbag, a short time later after the police had left she found her car was gone and after a taxi home that she had been burgled. The crooks more than likely had a good laugh, can only hope they OD on the drugs they bought. No such luck.

You reminded me Derek,
My brother in law is a paramedic,last year while treating a casualty,some low life,stole the sat nav from the ambulance.
Last year my sat nav was taken from my lorry,whilst i was on the back operating the crane,but to steal from the emergency services who we depend on is deplorable.
If these scum need their services,but cant make it,there is no one else to blame

This has happened here in Grimsby a few times.
Not a case of the crew leaving the vehicle unlocked, the scum
have broken into it causing damage needing repair so they are off
the road until such time as the damage is repaired

I hope you sent it to the Local and National Papers and a letter to the local council ???   Is it possible that the man was just doing his job and didn't know you were engaged in a life or death situation ???   Don't get me wrong... I don't like the people or the job ...I've had 2 undeserved parking ...and after putting the circumstances to the council they were reascended ...   But sometimes (But not often) you have to give people the benefit of the doubt even if it is a low life  traffic warden.

Hi Derek its probably because you were using language so foul and dastardly like "parking infringement notice"
More likely digit trouble on  his keyboard.

Years ago, in Folkestone, Kent, in the days when you could renew your car Road tax at a Main Post Office, there was a female(?) Traffic Warden who used to stand outside said Post Office and put Tickets on the cars outside for not having a Tax Disc displayed in the windscreen.That went on until someone complained to Southern News, they did a bit on the evening News bulletin and the scam stopped. Off subject I know, sorry.

If anyone knows who the thieves of the collection box are, they can bring them to my home and i
will try to convert these back into nice law abiding citizens.

Im not a priest, or any sort of do gooder, but i do own two fully grown Bullmastiffs , and a Baseball bat  <*<

im sure i could make these people understand why they should even think about robbing charity boxes.
