Egg my house - pay the price

[FenianEel]

I was discussing the other day, if you did the wrong thing to someone when you were a young fella, you would get your ass kicked, or the local sergeant (or provos depending where you're from) would almost literally tear you a new one.......but that's another story.....

At 18:00 yesterday, I was sitting at my desk, when I saw two "youths" about 15yo across the road.
(I mean youths as in the type you see on the news, generally being assisted into the back of a police car!)

Anyway, one had a carton of eggs. They stopped and proceeded to 'egg' my house! :mad: They obviously couldn't see me, as I was sitting at my desk, looking straight at them, and they proceeded down the road. The next few houses they gave a miss because there were obviously people there, and went the next house.

":censored: this" I said, and got in the car, went around the block, so I would be approaching them from the opposite direction.
They happened to be walking through the car park of the local pool, eggs still in hand.
I parked the car, walked calmly up to them and said, "are they eggs?"
"Yerrrr" they responded with attitude aplenty.
I then proceeded to grab the eggs and carton and redecorate their hair and shirts with a lovely "yoke n shell" pattern. :D
I proceeded to advise them, if they ever did anything like that to my house, or any house in the area again, they would be in a worse state than the egg shells on the ground.
I called the local cops and one threw a stick at me, then tried to take off. So, i grab offender 2 in a head lock, and at the same time, I was explaining the matter to the local constabulary on the phone, who said they would send a car around (must've been a slow day).
I end the call and offender 1 is screaming "that's assault, I'm calling the cops!" I said too late, already did ya DH, and I advised him & his mate, (let's call him offender 1), if he didn't come back here, his mate was in for a shellacking & I would beat his address of his mate (which I wouldnt) :D and they'd both find out exactly what assault was and how it felt:twisted:

"Cmon cuz" come back, offender 2 was welping and his heart rate was about 300 bpm.
(I did whisper to him that no one was going to get hurt, I just wanted his mate to come back).

Cue, the concerned citizens!:rulez::no2:

At this point, a few people had started coming over, one being an overly concerned "wednesday tennis lady" type.
She proceeded to tell everyone (about 4 people), that I was assaulting these poor young fellas, and she hadn't seen them do anything.
I thanked her for her concern, told the crowd what had happened, and asked does she see many men in suits randomly assault young fellas around here. :wallbash:
I assured her they weren't in any danger, we were just getting better acquainted, and the police were on their way.
At this stage, a fella in his running gear comes over to lend a hand. Just so happens he is a district police inspector from the area.
He tells "tennis lady" thanks and step off, asks me what happened, and told the "youths" to sit down over on the grass and shut up.

After getting my story, he immediately gets attitude, and whole load of "sod off - we didnt do nuffin -we're outta here" from the lads.
After telling them they can DNA test the eggs :D:D:D, they cough up their "confession".
Police car comes, :coplight:takes their details, informs them that someone from juvenile aid bureau will be having a chat to them and hop in the car, lets go talk to Mum & Dad. :oops2: Now they're starting to apologise and quiver...:D
Cops thank me, and said they'll get the stern talking to thing, and the wind put fair up em.
I said that's great, didnt want to hurt them or get them into strife, just explain what they shouldn't do, and wanted to set em straight and give em a fright.
Job Done & a good laugh in the process ;):thumbsup:

[Psimpson7]

Nice work:)

[dullbird]

nice one mate :D

[spudboy]

Excellent story. (I could have said eggselent I guess - but it seemed too obvious ;))

That'll teach the little buggers a lesson.

[Treads]

:Rolling::Rolling: That's great mate! More people should take a stand and make sure people like this learn a lesson from their actions. Good stuff!

[Scallops]

Ha - legend! :D ABTW - I saw your disco Saturday morning turning right into Waterton Street from Ipswich road - near the Maccas. I was on my pushbike (with Kat) and was pointing your rig out to her.

I'm glad you don't have a problem with the lycra set!

[Xavie]

lol. it was rather humerous, i enjoyed that story. Have to admit a similar thing happened to my house recently. I was rather torn because the kids parents treat him like crap and he is seeking attention which is fully understandable. I also did not want to make it worse so I deicided I'd let it go till next time.

[duncanw]

nice one, had a good laugh over lunch so thanks for that.

[Shonky]

hahahaha! That's classsic!

Little turds... glad the local smokeys were good about it too.

Tennis Lady - I know the type. Whiney do gooder Johnny-is-such-a-nice-boy sorta thing...

[stevo68]

Mate, well done, I think it is high time people took a stand. A cuppla yrs ago was on a train over in Perth. Little turd comes on and starts hassling this smaller kid, my ex at the time could see I was getting worked up. Then this brat hacks up a big golley and spits it on the seat. Thats it, I saw red, stood up, walked over to him and screamed, "WHAT ARE YOU...A ****ING ANIMAL" right in his face. "NOW CLEAN IT UP BEFORE I MAKE YOU"........he almost **** himself and started using his t-shirt. Got a round of applause from the rest of the train and at the next stop told him to get the F off the train, he started whimpering...too late.

No doubt some of the namby pambies will have a different perspective but so be it, top work mate,

Regards

Stevo

[Pedro_The_Swift]

nicely done Fen,,:D

it might make them stop and think,,

[martinozcmax]

Good onya mate, well done. That'll teach em to mess with a Mick !

[loanrangie]

Yes well done, its a shame that it takes a good citizen like yourself to do what the little darlings parents should be doing !

[Phoenix]

there should be more of that kind of thing, although you were lucky to get some police attention so quickly!

[SPROVER]

Haha great work.Would love to have seen the expression on there faces when you had a go at them.:eek::eek: Now if that had been my place it would have been done a little differently:p:p I would have brought one or both of them back home and made them clean the mess all while my Rottweiler would have been barking at them through the fence.And then it would have ended with " Now fellas if this happens again, your both going to be dragged through the back gate and left in the back yard with the dog". :wasntme::wasntme: Not that i would but it sure would scare the living daylights out of them.:Rolling::Rolling:

[noodlemac]

Good on ya!
If more parents disciplined their brats, they would have more respect for society in general. I'm so sick of do-gooders!

[samuelclarke]

Good to see people prepared to take an active not passive role! Most young people think they can get away with anything...and sadly mostly they do.

I'm 22 and I greatly appreciate my parents disciplining me as a kid - and no it wasn't just go to your room...I got a few good straps, but always in love not rage and I always knew why I was getting it. Too many parents have bought into the rubbish that is "reward training" and that it's abusing your child if you ever smack them.

Anyway, I'll get off my soapbox. :)

[EchiDna]

and mum probably came home and didn't think twice about the missing eggs no longer in the fridge...

[Hucksta]

Absolutely fantastic. this the sort of justice that the weak as @#%& courts should be handing out.

i vote you for the next Police Comissioner ......

[awabbit6]

Excellent afternoon's work - well done!


and mum probably came home and didn't think twice about the missing eggs no longer in the fridge...


What makes you think the eggs came from home? Most likely pinched them from the local shop!

It's good to know that none of us would have done anything like that when we were kids! ... :angel:

[Captain_Rightfoot]

Proper Job !!! :D:D

[2 rocks]

Top stuff! And there should be more of it! I'm pig-sick of people simpering away about "poor so and so", seeking attention, misunderstood blah, blah, blah. God it makes me sound like I'm 90...Maybe I'm getting redneck-itis, dunno. Respect - if I didn't show it to my parents or to others or their property I got my *** kicked - and rightly so!

It's like catching an intruder on your property - you may defend yourself with equal or lesser force. Be buggered! If you break in to my place and I'm home, look out out, common sense says you forfeited your rights by breaking the law - it's not yours and you don't belong there and you know it. End of story.

what a ripping yarn,
can just imagine the sight

been there done that, ( on the pickup side of course)

aside from the what iff factor more of it should be done, if anyone knows of ex nyc commissioner brattons 'broken windows' policy they'll know why.

[Richard O]

lol

DNA in the eggs.....thats gold !!!

Given the size of you, some real silly boys !!!.

Good work mate !!!

Richard

[JohnE]

just an update
if you haven;t been watching CSI. las vegas miami new york and beyond, NCIS, everyone else does, even matts offenders
dna is everywhere from your hair to the dander that comes off your head even the spit that comes out of your mouth when you sneeze.
the sweat you leave behind on the seat of a public lavatory.

and even on the eggs,

each day you learn something new,

and yes i can say all this with a straight face.( but its hard)

[MinniTheMoocha]

Don't flame me too much but I was involved in some egging.

I was over at a friends place (abouy 4 years older than me) and he was shall I say a cheeky type of guy.

We pinched some eggs out of the fridge and proceeded to egg bomb the house down the road from the 2nd storey verandah. Probably two dozen!

The house was absolutely plastered. The owner on return looked at the direction of fire and concluded it could only have come from my friends house or their next door neighbor. The neighbor wasn't home so comes a knock at the door. My friends mum does the "I don't think my kids would do that" and said goodbye.

That wasn't the end of it though as the inquisition started. Missing eggs hmmm. Suffice to say that huge disiplinary action was taken and the house was dutifully cleaned better than it was.

Lesson learnt!

well said Mike , I totally agree with what you have said.

[ATH]

I chased some yobs one night with my 56kg Rottie and they whimpered with fear as he snarled around their ankles. Actually so would I if it'd been me he'd chased.
The cops duly arrived after a neighbour phoned and I got a bollocking for chasing them and carrying a large torch which could have been used as a weapon.
"Why didn't I wait for them"? the cops asked, " 'cos your response time is too slow and they'll only laugh at you anyway" I replied.
So off they went after chastising me but I never saw the yobs back again, thankfully.
When will the courts start imposing meaningful sentences again?
Alan.

[Basil135]

When will the courts start imposing meaningful sentences again?

That will be when all the bleeding heart, pot smoking, dreadlock wearing, unwashed civil libertarians have their family attacked in their beds. Then maybe, one of the judges will have the bollocks to impose sentences that the community find acceptable.

longer sentencing does nothing to deter crime just look at the stats for usa and youll see that all it does it cost us tax payers more

I agree with mick but , remember it doesn;t happen without photos or funnier matt wearing them, that would be better than the feather duster heading to stevos place.

[ATH]

Longer sentences may not deter the recidivist offender but it'll keep them off the streets and that's what most of us want.
Build more prisons and bang 'em up for longer! And make them break rocks for road fill while they're in there.

for a while some of the local youths thought it was amusing to lob a few rocks on my roof every fortnight or so

one weekend, the little sods snuck into my yard and turned my power off and opened fire

local cop wad uly called because i was fed up with it by now, and i was told "go after them yourself, give them a fright and they'll **** off and leave you alone"

i wandered out, turned the maglight on and banged it on the verandah rail..... followed a few seconds later by the cane knife..... very fast footsteps followed heading anywhere but my yard...... fine by me

next afternoon i happened to walk past the local police station/residence, casually mentioned what happened, and informed him that if i had to chase them, i WOULD catch them, and i WOULD scalp the little ****ers

funnily enough it never happened again

[CraigE]

I totally disagree. These bludgers know they are going to get lenient sentences so do not care. Mandatory minimum sentencing is called for not discertionary sentencing where I get 6months and you get 18 months for exactly the same offence. Also accountability needs to come into effect and repatriation made to the victims, personally by the offender in monetary terms. When they know it is going to have an effect on them and cost them in real money terms other than a holiday at HMs bed and breakfast.
Rehabilitation is fine untill you are on the receiving end of someone who re offends straight after being released early.

Public Floggings :cool:


floggings we have but not public....

but even as they say here, "low crime doesn't mean no crime"


IMHO, being flogged with a rattan is overkill - it's a bunch of 4 foot long split canes tied together and slapped across your back just below the shoulder blades... the spreading out of the canes as it hits the skin just tears it open... 4-5 strokes and there is no skin left, 8-10 and bone is exposed - it's pretty full on stuff.

The best bit is for you massochists - if the "floggee" faints or whatever part way through the sentence, they take em down, heal em up and bring em back for a second go to complete the sentence! :o

[Randylandy]

Bring back chain gangs and let them try breaking rocks sure that will sort a few of them out.

ATH had a similar thing happen to me when got home one night to find someone had broken into my house and was in process of pinching my toolbox, in my case my 56kg rot wheeller was my 7kg jackrussel, I bet they wern't bragging to there mates about being attacked my little rat wheeler when she took a chunk out, bet they kept that one really quiet.

[thrower78]

I'm a teacher and have had the egging thing happen before by some young turds from my school. It happened 3 times and not once did the hit my car just the house and everyone else cars. By this time i figured that they must know who i am eg. from my school to hit my house only. But as per usual with these things the dumb asses can't stop talking about it at school, so needless to say I found out pretty quick who it was. They were bad kids in one of my classes anyway so i arranged a meeting with parents about school work and just decided to talk about the egging at the end of the meeting. Sorted it pretty damm quick when parents were there let me tell you. By the time i got home the turds were waiting there with their dads in tears apologising.

As a side note i have now moved to an area where less students live.
