Thread: stolen diesel

The thing with the forklift scenario comes under mantraps.
We can laugh about it as such but you never have legally been allowed to set traps for people like that.
That goes for electricity etc

Yep but placing a concrete block inside the door isn't a mantrap. Now the little old lady that got sick of getting terrorised and stitched fishhooks to her curtains and laced fishhooks around a baseball bat a few years ago, well... The cops and paramedics were laughing so hard they couldn't do anything to help the poor bugger. He was wrapped up in a ripped off curtain, tied to it with fishhooks, while she was limping along tweaking him with a baseball bat that he couldn't defend himself from due to more fishhooks. She couldn't hit him hard enough to wound but the entire scenario was just comedy gold. Me mate was a paramedic at the time, the little old dear was ex-WWII etc and taking no shite from no one. He was trying to get her into the back of the bus to check her out so she didn't keel over on them and she wasn't having a bar of that while there was sport to be had. A simpler more honest time!
