Default scum....

Its true, only stupid people are breeding...

Girlfriend and i bought our first house late last year, in Clifton springs. Nice quiet part of town, beach down the end of the street etc etc, real nice. Anyway we finally got round to having a bit of a housewarming. had probably 20 or so mates around havin an awesome night.

Then about midnight i walked outside to find 3 blokes walkin in my yard, ИИИИed as. Asked them nicely three times to leave, they were just being smartasses, anyway they finally got back into their car, a 84-85 white corolla and peeled off nearly slamming into each side of the road. Me n a few mates waited out the front for about 5mins to see if they were coming back, didnt look like so we turned back inside. Then we see em walkin back up the street yellin, abusin all hell out of us, but then the real trouble started, about 3 cars pulled up, out of nowhere even a VS ute with about 6 blokes in the back. All of a sudden ive got about 25 ИИИИed teenagers, brandishing bats, poles u name it. on my front lawn. Did the first thing anyone would do. called the coppers.

These scumbags started yellin out everything under the sun, threw empties at our fence said how they were gonna come smash the living daylights out of us, then more cars pulled up. it was turning into a nightmare. I dont know what happened, but all of a sudden they began leaving. sure enough about 5 mins later the cops rock up. 40 mins AFTER we called them.

It was supposed to be a fun night. turned into one of the worst. I just dont get it. DO these kids parents know what they're doing? do they care? we were about 5mins from having a stampede of drunken morons turning my house upside down.

40mins it took the copers, 40. its shocking.

Ay, I know. Society's turning in to ИИИИ eh? Teenager's/young adults mainly think they can do whatever the hell they want these days, and the scary thing is, they can do it, and get away with it.

It's total lack of respect for other human beings.

American culture is here and corrupting our youth. No care or respect for anybody seems to be common these days.

Haha for that they'd send the bloody tactical response people. Haha.

But yeah what's with these deadИИИИ morons getting about nowadays? Maybe we should start selling them Skyrines with dodgy tyres and let the whole thing work itself out :evil3:

Damn thats not good to hear at all Keldo. I hope all goes well in getting everything back to the way it was and should be. Do you have any idea why they came? Old tenants maybe?
But that is shocking to hear that it took 40 minutes for the coppers. If they didn't rock up in 10 i would have just kept calling them

Nope, kids are just like that nowadays. Think they rule the world, and generally their parents don't give a stuff (or don't care enough to know)..

Trust me, i'm apart of this generation, lol. One of my *old* friends used to go swimming in strangers backyard pools with a whole group of mates, when the owner came out, all they did was threaten him with home made weapons (ie clubs etc) until the cops came, then they'd drive off.
Like I said before, people don't have respect for others anymore..

Actually, they don't think they own the world. They know they own the world, the government has given them way to many rights and taken those of the parents away.

Yeah, when you think about it like that, it's true. Like I said before... 90% of the time there's nothing the victim can do about it.

Seems like there is a reasonable price to be paid for living in a big city these days - putting up with this kind of ИИИИ.

That is really shocking.... last party I was at, we had a few crashers rock up, me being the biggest generally gets singled out. There's something in the mentality of a drunk that makes him think he can take on the tallest guy at a party? Anyway... the cops where called and they arrived pretty quick, some stupid kid had threatened to run thru the house and stab one of the other guys.... some people have no idea..

scum bags like these have too many rights and not enough responsabilty
its time the government made these dirt bags accountable for their actions
we had a simaler event happen in our neighbourhood a local got bashed (mid 50s
)for no reason police said sorry nothing can be done as the offender was only 16 years old

Ive been in a few situations like that and being 18 everyone blames you.. But i have always been in your situation where somehow it gets out of control but if i had said this everyone would be thinking "He wouldnt of just asked them to leave.. he woulda been a smartass.."

Like last year at the State of Origin, me and a few mates were playing cards and having a few drinks after the game. Then about 11:30/12:00 we hear a massive crash at the door. At first we thought it was just a cat jumping on the screen door but then we heared some noises. So we all went outside to see what was going on and as we walked out we saw broken glass everywhere and saw a lad down the road. So one of my mates went up and asked him why he threw it (and that was it he didnt say anything or be violent) then were on the street and all of a sudden lads are running out of bushes and up from cars with baseball bats and sticks trying to flog us. My mate that went up to the lad had a gun (dunno if real) pointed at him and was smacked around so we all ИИИИ bolted inside and locked then door. After that the guys ran around the house and they were banging on windows and trying to get in.
We rung the police and told them and they were there straight away (because we mentioned the gun) and they were saying that we probably provoked these boys some how and that my mate must of been talking trash to this guy.

Im not saying that you made these kids do this in any way, but if i was in your position people would be blaming me for it.. I know its kind of off topic but that was just my thoughts when i read you post.

Mate if I called the cops with a bunch of yobbo teenagers in the front yard and they weren't there in 10 minutes I'd be on the blower to 000 screaming about how I think I saw a shottie. 40 minutes? Bugger that for a joke!

Should have told them you were already back from the hospital and could they please hang up as you were waiting for your lawyer to ring back about legal action for police incompetence.

Oh, and you were not paying the speeding fine you got as you rushed to hospital with a 4 inch knife wound.

The only feedback I ever hear about police is negative. I feel sorry for those blokes. From the way nearly all people talk about them on FFA they are a bunch of incompetent lazy slackers who do nothing any where that comes near to work. If only some of the couch potatos here could come out in a div van in the western suburbs of melbourne and find out what really goes on we might get some positive feedback here. I will cop some negative comments about this but I dont care. I have had enough!!!

Yes there may be a few who see things that way, but there is if not as many and more who appreciate the work not only the police but all emergancy services do.

a few lone voices do not speak for everyone here and i think you would find that support for the guys and gals doing the hard yards is and never has been in question.

one of my best and oldest friends is a copper.. has been for over 10 years. I'm well aware of what they do. My biggest issue is that the "foot soldier" is sent to stupid, irrelevant or even pointless jobs while those in charge "back burn" more importing and urgent jobs.
Seriously, being sent to deal with a "parking issue" and not being told to forget about it for the moment and get over to a job where an innocent person may be shot/stabbed/beaten senseless is a joke.
Its not the cop on the beats fault, they are jsut the frontline, its the way the police service had been decimated of skills, senior positions and decisions made by incompetent fools and the whole thing being turned into a revenue service that has my back up.
Individual police do well and are usually rational and fair....police management and policy is complete horsemanure that has got its priorities and ideals totally screwed up now.

Had this problem a few years ago at a party. About 50 people of a different race (the reason I say this is because cops around here are scarred of them) gate crashed the party trying to pick fights with anybody that looked at them and trashing the house. We called the cops about 5 times and still nobody turned up for about an hour. All it took was a friend who turned up who knew a cop and once he called them they were around in about two minutes.
