Thieving scum in Leeds.

[SirKit Breaker]

Hi all,

Just a warning for anyone in the Leeds and surrounding areas.

2 vans i know of in my street in Morley were screwed last week.
I know of someone who knows of another that got done in Tingley recently, and my mates was cleared out on Saturday night in Aberford.

So keep your gear safe.

I take all my expensive kit out nightly, and used to leave the van on the street outside the house. I now park it in the drive backed up to the wifes car with the side door against the house, so getting into it is nigh on impossible. What i dont want is an expensive bill for damage cos some pikey scrote has broken in to find nothing to nick.

If i catch anyone trying, then their fingers are coming off with the rip saw, and stuff the consequences. Anyone caught trying to nick my stuff on my property looses their human rights, and as far as i am concerned it is my human right to rip their fingers off for the good of everyone else. I have taken the law into my own hands before and won't hesitate to do it again.

No fingers, they cant go thieving.

Cheers.............Howard

Do you think its pikey's nicking electrical tools so they can then nick the HV cable from the train tracks? Probably just after the drills and tranys, times are that hard these days even the dealers are offering buy one get one free.

tbh I dont think it is them most of the time. its just thieving scum that would sell and mug their own grandma for a bag of drugs. we had our house turned over a week before we moved in after working on it every night after i got home from work. to say I was least impressed would be the understatement of the year. 60 hours a week put in to make the house nice and 5 hours a night till i nearly fell asleep doing it for the family for some scrote to break in and help themselves. You hear them on telly when they are being interviewed, they call it "Grafting" what I call grafting is me going out and getting caked in soot and splintered up for a decent job for someone, these scum bags call it grafting when its someone elses graft that they feed their nasty little habbits off.

sorry peeps rant over my keyborads nearly broken now cos I was banging the keys in anger

 

[mattmoo1974]

Move down south, I leave the keys in both cars(Otherwise id never find where the misses has left them) and never lock the doors on the house.
The dog mite lick anyone to death! Iv worked in some right choice area's and was told, take anything of value out of your van and leave it unlcoked or they ll cause £100's of damage just to find it empty.

Always makes me laugh the 'grafting' - A year or so back some thieving little scrotes pulled in in a transit tipper, cones up on the road behind them and lifted up the stone paved drive on a house. Makes no sense that they would do the hard work of mauling the stone/flags about as they wanted he cash, but CBA to do it on a daily basis, they probably got a lot less than they would if they were doing a real job.

Hopefully the lads (and lasses) in question are insured and can get back to doing their full craft withough too much loss of earnings, I know if my van was ever to get done over my gear isn't insured through the company, so would take me god knows how long to replace test instruments/power tools etc.

you can get van tool insurance, as long as the doors are locked and the tools are in the back you are covered...

And the filth will continue to do it, mate, because they have NO incentive NOT to do it. Once upon a time the fear of retributive justice would of halted all but the determined scumbag. Nowadays they have no fear of a liberal justice system.

Just heard on the radio that a 16 year old from Leeds has died after trying to steal cable from a sub station!

 

[Guest123]

Just heard the same, will these people never learn.I have very little sympathy for them.

Oh dear, what a shame!

That's one less dumb nut that can breed and pass his moronic genes onto the next generation.

 

[Des 56]

If these deaths continue,it will be time that they started teaching the dangers in the schools,or alternatively teach them how to earn a honest living

 

[mayfair]

At least he didnt get to prison, they'd a taught him how to do it properly, whilst he brushed up on his pool skills

Yes I know, just the company work for only have insurance as required by law for the vehicle, contents (either personal on not) aren't covered.

I had a bloody good laugh as well.

Unfortunately you are probably right, there will probably be some technicality that the warning signs were not 12x12 foot and not clearly visible when illegally climbing the barbed wire or palisade fence.

Leeds teenager killed by power cable - Latest News - Yorkshire Evening Post haha thick ****

 

[Mark_Burgess]

With any luck it was one of the lads that SirKit Breaker was trying to avoid!

Idiots. only about 3 weeks ago there was a lad on the news from Leeds who was badly burnt from it. they just don`t learn. they know the risks and are just stupid my only concern is for other people who may get hurt as a consequence the idiots doing it deserve no sympathy imo

I had that a few years ago outside college. they cost me a fortune with what they nicked and none of it will have been any good to them. glasses sunglasses and a gun cleaning kit, oh plus the cost of a new window and months of finding the dam stuff when i was vacuuming up. only good thing is the coppers had turned up about two minutes afterwards and to be fair he sat with it for nearly an hour to make sure no one came back to it. just got there in time as he had aranged a recovery that would have cost me another ton or so on top.

My car was broken into in Leeds in 2004. All they took was the spare wheel out of the boot. Car was deadlocked so they had to get it out of rear door window. There was a few quid in change in the ashtray, designer sunglasses in the door pocket and DVDs and CDs in the glovebox. All they wanted was the spare wheel. The car was 3 months old. it would have been far easier and attract less attention to jack it up and just take a wheel off

Imagine how sick I was nicked, all my books so of I go to amazon, two days later read on here about impending green book!!!!! , if only they could have waited a few months I could have got the newer ones!!! :banghead:

Alex do you need any paperwork, notes, hand outs from LCT? I still have all of mine, maybe a bit dated now (16th ed) but if your short of anything just give me a shout. Another thing you could do is ask Woody or Richard at LCT if they can reprint anything you need, I'm sure they would.

Ta paul, I'll keep in mind, managed to get through rest of year without to much bother, could have been a disaster though.

 

[theJMan]

I sympathise with you, I can not stand these scum. I had my house burgled not too long back, it is not a nice experience. Maybe they should make drugs legal, hence making it not cool anymore to be on them. It annoys the hell out of me that drug dealers make so much more money than most hard working professionals and just to take the cookie, it is all tax free for them!

Scumbags.

 

[gooner1984]

how do you know it was a pikey?

 

[Newsome3]

Well they scum hit kippax last night too!Only got a bit expecting them back tonight!! Trying to convince my mate to let me borrow his rotty so sleep in van so at then thell get a shock when they open doors!!!!Why can't you have anything anymore with out some scum bag raking it and selling it on for next to nac all!!!!

Do you really expect anything else when we live in a society where EVEN the chief constable of whatever police 'service' thinks that these scum are just misunderstood??? How the hell did we ever get to the stage where senior police officers empathise more with druggies than people like us...

 

[Joanne]

I can beat all that!!!

4 months ago we had out van broken into for jackets outside of home through smashing the window, took them literally a second as we heard it and ran out.

Two nights ago whilst we were asleep and in pouring down rain!!! Thieving scum cut off my partners exhaust system and catolic converter (excuse the spelling) from his van using a saw!!!! He noticed in the morning when starting the engine. Went to look and the whole system had gone!!! £3000 pound it has cost!

Apparantly this is a new craze going round, I warn you to park carefully. Our van was directly behind our house and in view from our kitchen!!! It looks like it was a professional team that did this and must have taken at least 30minutes to do!!!!:annoyed: I have heard this is happening alot round Morley, Tingley and Farnley area!!!!

Pikey scum after the expensive metals in the cat. The other week the local plod had a big crack down for half an hour at the local scrap merchants in Morley just up the road from me, it appears they had more interest in the dodgy vans than the stolen scrap they were carrying. No mention of anyone getting done for handling stolen metal, but lots of vehicle defect notices etc given out. By the sounds of it, most of the vans were scrap.

Chap who we know from allwoodley....he`s a joiner and VERY overweight. Well it was about 5 weeks ago that he was at orange shed and only in for about 10mins. They had been sat in the car park in a van watching to see who came in and who would be an easy target so realising that this guy couldn`t run for toffie and had no chance of catching them they waited till he had gone in to orange shed then drove up next to his van and transfered about £6000-£8000 worth of tackle then they were off.......took em about 5 mins they reckon.....they were very proffesional (for thieves) not of course like us..........
