Immature kids who shout “pig’s”, I can put up with.
People who argue over tickets “I’ve only been here I minute”, I can deal with.
These are all everyday occurrences and ones that although they can be slightly irritating, do not make my job nasty.
A 16-year-old who is pregnant with her second kid and has been slapped around.
Indecent pictures of children.
Elderly people who’ve been robbed.
These are the things that get me down.
Yes, nasty people should be punished, and badly, but kicking them in because it would make one feel better, some mini self-gratification that would in fact be punished by the same law that would get them, is not right.
Something Tony Martin said on telly struck a chord with me yesterday.
"Some people think that anarchy is a lawless society - that is exactly what we have, anarchy."
people can murder others and get just a couple of years in prison. burglars can break into peoples houses, get injured by their occupants and then sue them. People can molest children left right and center, then just get a short stint in the local butlins style prison, and be out before you know it. Two 10 year old boys can throw bricks at a baby boys head, gouge his eyes out, sexually molest him, then effectively cut him in half by putting him on the train tracks, and get a nice new life and identity, paid for by mister and missus taxpayer. What the hell?

Channel as in kick the hell out of them? No, I don't think that's right, at least at a personal level like this. 'If in doubt - unload'. Hmmm. So I've temporarily been blinded by disgust at what someone has done to a fellow human being, so the best course of action is to be just as vile and ound their faces in?
> Is everyone determined to kill people when something nasty happens?!!!
If in doubt - unload.
it's good to channel all your hate towards people that do terrible things, isn't it?
