Burglars are always ok to grass up. Drug dealers are almost never ok to grass up.Broomhall wrote:http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-england-devon-29723404
Would you have grassed this guy up? or is he not a "proper" criminal...eg nonce, rapist etc
Are burglars and drug dealers also non grassable? I think we need some proper guidelines about who we can and who we cant grass up as I am finding it all very confusing.
I wouldnt want to to grass a murderer up and then find I had gone and grassed up the wrong class of criminal.

Re: Dangerous driving by the IFL clown
Good point. A drug dealer who was also a nonce is definitely ok to grass up. And if a burglar who has been caught & is about to be grassed up then turns around and grasses up a nonce, it's ok to let the burglar walk away as a thank you (the rarely used 'Nonce Get-Out Clause').Counter-puncher wrote:remember the Nonce ExceptionBoxerbeetle wrote:Burglars are always ok to grass up.

Re: Dangerous driving by the IFL clown
I've wondered what I'd do with a burglar. I'm not gonna detain some sorry-looking, addiction-addled chappie for 45 minutes I'm too soft and would only end up releasing him - on the understanding that it would be better if I didn't see him at my, or anyone else's house again.Boxerbeetle wrote:Burglars are always ok to grass up.

Quite so, and is often not used enough. I have done some serious research on this and I can draw a graph which shows a direct correlation in the rise in anti social behaviour to the decline of the mustache.
I now am getting a handle on all of this. It would appear we have levels forms of criminal and delinquent into which we can begin to formulate code of conduct. We would have in short two types of recalcitrant. The Grassee and Non Grassee, with a range of punishments ranging from mild admonishment, to a good thrashing to a spell in chokey or dare I say it a combination of all three.

I may get all this stuff tattooed somewhere, so I have it to hand at all times.
