I think someone pointed out to him that stating the economy is rigged when you are a multi billionare whose wealth stems from a multi milliion dollar loan from your Dad doesn't play well.

This is a normal post One of Trump's many gaffes that amused me the most
was during a candidates' debate he was arguing that the system was rigged and to illustrate his point he explained he had made numerous political donations and if wanted the favour returned a year or two down the line he'd give them a call and they'd simply do his bidding. To paraphrase "The system is corrupt. I know this to be true as I'm part of the corruption."

Anyone else get they feeling he's purposely thrown her under a bus to make a point about the legal aid system?
(, Thu 20 Apr 2017, 13:12, Reply)
This is a normal post Nah.
Reading between the lines she was clearly a habitual, confrontational and aggressive beggar. The euphemism "accosting" was employed and this breach of the court order was apparently mitigated by the fact she had not bean "aggressive" (presumably she has form for often being aggressive if that's all she's got for mitigation). As for the "fragile and vulnerable", don't take that literally. It means homeless/drug or drink dependence/mental health issues. It does not mean she can't look after herself on the streets or in the nick. Nor will it be her first trip to the nick. I do think it's shameful she had no legal representation, but it was a cut and dry case of a breach of a court order for persistent anti social behaviour, so I really don't think it would've helped. Nevertheless it is shameful. Absolutely everyone in the legal world hates any funding cuts to that world because that's where they make their bread, turkeys don't vote for Christmas. But yes, she ought to have had representation.

But we weren't told how many times she'd been let off with warnings, ASBO, etc, or just how aggressive her modus operandi was. The fact that despite all his bleeding heart hand wringing and her being so very fragile and vulnerable he only reduced the sentence by time already served suggests to me she is more than a little bit of a cunt. I mean if you get remanded for such an apparently trivial matter you must have quite some previous.

This is a normal post about £40k p/a, plus upfront costs like coppers and court. so maybe £30k for 6 months
she'll be out in 3 months on probation, desperate and poor, re-offend, then back in for another 6/12 months, £65k for a years custodial (inc costs). Then she'll be out, penniless & die in the gutter (£8k). Or she might go round a few more times.

So her last 2 years of life will cost about £100k, maybe lots more. (I work in the sector)

yeah thats what normal, balanced happy, healthy people do, rob and take advantage of the vulnerable

there is zero chance that she is also some sort of nutter in need of care & support

prison, prison is the answer. prison works so well, people go in, learn their lesson, come out, BOOM reformed, productive members of society.

thats why prisons are so empty, its a deterrent, a deterrent that works.
