The driver should have punched him back in selfdefence scum like this need a good kick up the backside.

   12 month supervision order what a triumph for justice bet the fireman feels his efforts are worth the possibilty of attack just what do you have to do to get locked up maybe the courts should just be dissolved and local people hand out summary justice within a sensible tariff ie attacking a member of the emergegency services while carrying out his/her9s duty 4 years (not long enough i hear you cry) but i think the point is made

    sadly these occurances are becoming more and more commonplace. The do-good lefties have a lot to answer for. These thugs don't need canoing trips in Wales and days out at Alton Towers because of their "Disadvanteged upbringing" They need to know that if they start on a fireman, he will get a damn good thrashing, then when the police turn up he will receive a good kicking by a couple of well built coppers. And when the thugs in school just a dirty look at one of the teachers will earn him 5 lashes of the cane. Suond cruel? Not nearly as cruel as beating an old lady black and blue on her own doorstep for thirty quid

   He should be birched a few dozen times. I am glad I am out the the pits of Rochdale

   The sentence is a joke. 20 years inside would have been too little for the thug. It is time fire crews where issued with pepper spray and batons.
