Greyman 25,258 Posted March 9, 2019 Report Share Posted March 9, 2019 Funny coincidence Yesterday morning I turned up for a shift and one of the blokes was just telling a story how his mate had just been given 8 years for blowing up cash machines and the debate was, would you do 4 years( which he,ll serve ) for £465000 pounds as that was what he had earned from his crimes ???

I have utmost respect for the law and those who uphold it mate but judges,to a man,have no sense of humour,i could imagine anyone unfortunate to fall foul of the law treats those wig-wearers who hold your fate in their hands with reverence befitting the situation courts of law in many countries are theatres,act accordingly if you want to exit stage right 1 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

You especially wonder that when your facing them I suppose,they seem on a distant planet and that courtroom is their kingdom,their "life experience" is different from many of those they sentence Quote Link to post Share on other sites
