Bus driver sacked OMG

[pete01]

That's a one-sided opinion.
It's the industrial investigation that informs, not the media. The media simply presents their opinion.

Yes from the person on one side, id love to watch an interview with the thief.

The loonies would agree with him and award him with a new diamond necklace and train him up as a bus driver.

 

[Mottie]

Perhaps he'd have to pay back the £26,000 fund raising money?

Blimey, I never thought of fundraisers for bashing a thief. I should have started one for myself when I bashed that yob over the head with a scaffold pole when he and his mate tried to nick my motorbike. Perhaps @ellal could start a fundraiser for me, he knows I’m struggling

 

[ReganAndCarter]

Of course Himmy would be happy to see some poor bloke doing a thankless, shoite job who made the mistake of doing the decent thing in the heat of battle get crucified.

It would have no value to the disciplinary process. The outcome would have been the same.
Would it have satisfied your curiosity?

Your febrile imagination needs a reset.

The outcome is ridiculous don't you agree?

I'm not aware of the circumstances you describe. Were you in any danger of injury or was there any threat of violence against you?
Were you attempting to detain someone until the police arrived? Had you called them?

No, you cannot "violently beat" a thief. The law generally permits the use of reasonable force in self-defence or to prevent a crime, but it does not allow for excessive or gratuitous violence.
The key principle is that the force used must be necessary and proportionate to the situation:

• Self-Defence: You are allowed to use force to protect yourself or others if you are in reasonable fear of immediate harm.
• Preventing a Crime/Citizen's Arrest: Anyone can use reasonable force to prevent a crime from occurring or to detain a suspect until the police arrive.

The bus driver wasn't charged with anything by the police, he got sacked for leaving his cab door open which cctv shoes he shut it

I was gonna drop that out a bit later

Who was crucified? He was sacked for failure to carry out his primary task. He was given only one task, and he failed that one.
Doing a thankless shoite job is no excuse for gratuitous violence despite the apparent desire for it among a few on here.

 

[King Billy]

The outcome is ridiculous don't you agree?

He was given one primary task, and he failed to do it. He preferred to chase a thief.
Sometimes doing the noble thing is not doing the right thing.
What if the end result of his fight with the thief had ended badly for him?

Weak people like you would happily standby and watch innocent people being robbed, beaten up etc, lets hope you never end up as a victim whilst people standby and watch you.
