There is something seriously wrong in the UK
I am not sure what is going on here, but how some people got to think that this is ACCEPTABLE is really beyond me.
Spiked by INJECTION: Women 'needled with date rape drugs' in nightclubs in Edinburgh and Liverpool leaving them facing HIV checks as police arrest man in Nottingham after three attacks there in two weeks
@zleap wow this is a new level of attempted rape/attack I havent heard before. Quite disgusting of course.
@freemo Yeah, up to now drinks have been spiked, so people became more aware, you can get covers for glasses for example, there is cctv, people are perhaps more aware / observant.
this just takes it to another level now.
Problem is the UK is WEAK and PATHETIC when it comes to handing out sentences, so people are doing this with impunity, low chance of getting caught, lower chances of getting convicted and if caught and convicted you end up with a low prison term.
Not sure but in Rochdale the local authority was so scared of being branded racist they didn't step in with regard to Asian gangs grooming and raping young girls.
Not the same thing, but a concerning pattern. I will admit it is common for the news to play race politics in how they report to such a degree as to lead to absurdity.
I remember a british friend posted an article about this "racist" old white lady who was racist because she called the cops on a black guy for breaking and entering into his own home. I mean he was locked out and breaking into the home through his window. It seems a reasonable response for her to have and to assume she must have just been racist because the dude was black was laughably absurd, yet that seems to be how the news spins it quite often.
jail as a form of punishment is not at all effective at preventing crime really. There is a much bigger effect in preventing crime by simply providing good living conditions for the population and good mental health access.
