Getting angry about speed cameras

You'd think he was the Unabomber or something.

 

They seem to go on about it for long enough. I suppose it does involve
money gathering devices, which are _very_ important.

 

Using the patented Mavis Beacon "Hunt&Peck" Technique, tallbloke

"At an earlier magistrates court hearing proseuctor Wayne Lewis said
over the last four years GATSO equipment in north west London had been
targetted most suffering a similar pattern of attack.

Mr Lewis said: 'This involves forcing open the door to the control box
near the camera, placing an accelerant inside the box, lighting the
accelerant and closing the door.

The resulting fire causes considerable damage and is known to
permanently disable the camera equipment.'"

Well, that's nice to know, isn't it boys and girls?

You forgot to quote the bit about the firelighters.

 

"As part of his conditional bail ..... he was also told not to be stationary
within 100 metres of any GATSO camera."

Great excuse to run a red light !!

 

You could use a number of house hold chemicals to the same effect, and
have the excuse that you were just coming back from the shops if you
mixed it on site as it were.

You'd need to make sure the shop you just came from actually sold that
stuff though.

Given their intended "purpose", there should have been hundreds of
accidents, leading to death and injury to many millions of innocent
road users?

Falling Down BBC1 now.

 

"And, whoops, just happened to land on a patch of spilled diesel."

 

I think the pack of firelighters is easier and cheaper really.

 

Expanding foam filler, and a 6mm bit on a cordless drill.

No jury in the land would convict!

 

The superstores do.

 

You don't need diesel, or anything else. Just sugar and one other thing.

 

The revolution is starting up here )

Hmmm yes.

Make sure you get a receipt.

 

Me? Heh.. I'm just thinking about what people could do. Unless this sort
of thing is considered thought crime, like in the film 1984.
