Great Idea
- Moped crime in London has more than halved since tough measures were introduced to allow police to ram suspects from their bikes, figures reveal.
The Metropolitan Police said the number of moped crimes had fallen by 53.7% in the year since they were given the new powers.
The force said there were 20,973 moped crimes between July 2017 and June 2018, but that fell to 9,723 between July 2018 and June 2019.
Police were given powers to knock suspected criminals off their mopeds in November 2018.
"Powers" meaning "ramming motorcycles."
We'd like to see this instituted for not just motorcycles, but Divvy bikes and those fucking scooters, too.

Wow they gave their police some power? I wonder if London is as litigious as the US?
Why even police that city anymore? Look at what they deal with
Ramming? As with a vehicle? Oh wow. That wont happen here and I am surprised it is there.
But I do like the ideal. Run their ass over but if you hurt their feelings you are in dutch...
I used ta like throwing a metal rod in the spokes.
Try it and laugh
They don’t even want us to have foot chases.
Heh...
Just like opening the door to the ol' box chevy
when dude tries to make good his escape...
>Running His Ass Off<
"Pant-Cough-Wheeze! I can WIN!"
>Skidding tires - Green unmarked Chevy Police sedan with one
whitewall tire and 4 mismatched hubcaps from Maxwell St. for
5 dollars gettin' up on the sidewalk into the vacant lot....
Induction howl of a Chevy 350 right behind his running, stupid ass<
"I... CAN... WIIINN!"
>Gear selector dropped into (1) for dramatic effect...
Dude expels "carbon build-up" into his pants and runs
even harder<
"Hey! Stupid! Ya wanna stop or what?"
"Uhhhgggghh!"
"Ok then..."
>Give the gas a stomp, give the door a good shove,
cut the wheel/hit the brakes<
>THUMP! SOMERSAULT!<
Lots of maniacal laughter coming from the sedan.
Keeping an eye peeled for weapons, contraband (and
other sundry items) flying from fleeing felon's ass
like the pixie dust from Tinkerbell...
Good Times giving street criminals
the absolute terrors in the name of the law.
Who said Policemen had to fight fair?
Other than white-guilt liberals and Dude Inc.?
We LIVED to play dirty tricks on
dirty. criminal m/fers.
"Why da Poleece ovah heah so damn WILD?"
That made coming to work the most fun
you could have with your clothes on.
We miss the days of The Police being free
(while adhering to very necessary legal constraints)
to fly the m/fin' "Jolly Roger" in this town.
And the law abiding quietly nodded their assent/consent
to the artfully targeted ass-kickery by The Police.
I just returned from a trip to London, first in a few years. Wow! How the City has changed, especially the residents. Immigration has converted London into Epcot Center.
The refugees ride the mopeds and commit unspeakable acts against random Londoners- there are no guns, so they throw battery acid out of water bottles on people- it is horrific. The fellow I eas visiting lost his girlfriend to an acid attack- was fatal! He said she didn't know the attackers who were Somalians on a moped and they were never caught.
The media is eager to paint a picture of harmony, but the Truth is the refugees refuse to integrate and have sections of the City that are no-go zones, even for the Police.
Trained in Harrison in the late 80’s and stayed there til the early 90’s...
Anyone remember “Squad Car Soccer” in 011?
No cell phones. No GPS. No camera on every freakin’ building. No one claiming “the po-leese done run me over”!!
And now that we’re reminiscing, ask an old timer about the “Payphone Car” on first watch in places like 010, 011 and 015.
HINT: when Ghetto payphones met bolt cutters, 911 didn’t receive the lions share of Ghetto bullshit drama. Dope sales were temporarily crippled. Hypothetically speaking, of course ;-)
Watching Dude running to a payphone while fumbling for change, only to reach for a receiver that was no longer attached? Priceless.
Fucking good times.
Maybe the British Politicians in charge of the police have finally realized that they have emasculated the police too much?
Should have bumped Laquan!
Didn't they have push bars on the squads in L.A.?
We will fight them on the streets, the sidewalks, in the parks,
in the square, on the lawns, on the pitch, at dawn, at dusk, and
at high noon. We will never give up. Never give up.
Vote for William Conway.
Communist asshole Bicyclists next!
"Should have bumped Laquan!" Said that 1 second after I watched the video the first time. Wow what a difference that would have made.
The only way you will get me off of my Divvy bike is if you let it from my cold, dead legs.
Now, kees me you fool!!!!

Your skills as described earn you the prestigious title of ‘The Pelé Of Squad Car Soccer’, my friend.
Today’s skinny jeans wearin’, backwards bb cap sportin’, nappy beard donnin’ know-it-all tactical superstars and beat car millennials will never know the joys of being able to use such methods of force “necessary to effect the arrest”. Rarely did Dude complain when he knew he was caught dirty. And if/when he did???...
Turn Key: “Yo, my man...you sick, hurt or injured”?
Dude: “Yea, my ribs hurt from da Slick Boys runnin’ me ova wit dey car”.
Turn Key: “Muthafucka, please!!! Yo ass would be dead if the po-leese ran it over. Now walk dat ass to D-3 and get your nap on... the bus to County leaves early. The Dick Doctor be waitin’ on ya”.
The preceding tale being a hypothetical dream sequence, of course. From a time when the police were much more respected and absolutely feared when necessary. And as aptly stated: “... the law abiding quietly nodded their assent/consent to the artfully targeted ass-kickery by The Police”.
Today?? I’ve had the stomach turning opportunity to review BWC footage of Dude calmly walking away after knocking a fully uniformed Kiddie Kop flat on his ass. Said newly-minted member of ‘The Baddest Gang in Town” responding only verbally with “Back sir!! Halt, sir! You’re under arrest sir!” as he picked himself off the ground, Dude with an ear-to-ear grin.
Sooooooo glad this Shitshow is just about over...
Dear sirs, we have a “mope” problem here.. not moped.
After being corn holed by obamanus anti-police policy since ‘08 and then been getting Rhammed for eight years, only to end getting up finished off with an angry roto-grooting for at least lease 4 more, the last thing we need is getting more involved with lawless.
Only in Sanctuary City-CookCo.
We can’t pull a roscoe out on the violent feral without creating a report. Can’t imagine just all the civil implications of running into a violent feral when even probable cause is being challenged. Chase anything and it’s all your fault, even if joe hits one of the many of Groot’s budget constraint unfilled potholes.
I don’t believe Loondon mayor Saddick would allow such.
Does London have the same unchallenged reparations settlements as the we do ?
Don’t think so.
I’m willing to bet there just aren’t anymore scooter mopeds to easily steal in London as the reason for the decrease of the increase.

“Anyone remember “Squad Car Soccer” in 011?”
Think it evolved to the same principle as bowling.
Ah the 80’s.
Farewell and adieu to you, mid-eighties.
Farewell and adieu to you, law and order.
– had an aimless community member speeding out of the alley on a likely fancy stol’t bmx bike as I was turning into the alley to park for check-off.
Little joe ran right into the chromed steel bumper of the Box Chevy, flipped over to the side, bounced up and around, jumpt back on the bike and took off like a bat otta’hell before I could even get my seat belt undone. Parked, checked off, goodnight.

Whutchusayfella?
"NYAAAAAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!"
Laughter from that mysterious green box chevy shrouded
in magical ceegar smoke with two rather curious occupants
and one whitewall tire, 4 mismatched hubcaps for $5.00 from
Maxwell St. and a dry cleaning bag taped over the back
window to mimic the window being busted-out...
Random sightings had been known to occur throughout A/4
and that's ALL we're gonna admit to!
But this though...
The steel cable of pay phone receivers had been cut
all over town right?
Why was Dude so adamant about STEALING them?
Hence random Dude running up to the phone and:
>Laugh Track<
Heh...
Some form of broke-ass simple-mind m/fer reparations we reckon.
Although we HAVE heard of some misfortunate (or richly
deserving) person catching a bad case of the "tater-head"
with a payphone receiver as the weapon.
We imagine THAT would royally hurt in the magnitude
of Dude that got his noggin laid open with a "princess"
phone.
Don't go botherin' "Princess" when she's on the phone
with her "OTHER" man...
Trust and Believe that during our Law Enforcement Sojourn,
we did our share of Looking, Pointing & Laughing and Leaving.
Hail Fella!
A salutatory cuppa "bus'(bust)-head coffee"
raised in your general direction.
Hope all is well good sir...
Police Like You Have No Friends.
Bring it on.
Fucking good times.

Yes, you are so right. And, there was more, much more but that can't be printed on this blog for the public to read. The West side had all of the fun. And, if you know Scotty you know what I mean.
Squad car soccer..indeed.Recovered 2 guns by running dude over in 011 back in the early 90's. Shit happens when you run down the street with an automatic rifle...I can still here the thud he made as he ran into our bumper and hood.
Was in Indianapolis over the holiday weekend, and those scooters were everywhere just laying on the sidewalks and and dropped anywhere people chose fit. I dont go downtown for anything these days, I can only imagine how our fine city fares with those damn things.

I remember a story told by a relative —- he worked for the park district and was on scene when some private company dredged one of the lagoons in a west side park (Garfield?? Humboldt?). Said they came up with over 100 payphone receivers, pieces of cords. He had no explanation at the time, now it all makes perfect sense. I imagine call volume dropped substantially until phones were repaired. Brilliant on the part of the officers if you ask me.
You have to hand it to Boston PD, this is brilliant

I vividly recall leaving 011 one night when dude bailed from a car on Sacramento and the bridge over 290. He ran W/B on Harrison, pretty much down the middle of the street. I pulled over on the south curb as I saw the responding units rapidly approaching hot on dudes ass. That’s when a coworker pulling out of the garage behind me, seeing the same thing, precisely timed Dudes zigzag to head south on Albany and nailed him with the full chrome bumper on his early 80s Ford sedan. Dude cartwheeled over the hood and passenger fender coming to rest in obvious pain about 40 feet from point of impact. Coworker never batted an eye, didn’t stop to grab ass and high 5, calmly driving off as if nothing happened. I guess he didn’t wanna be on the arrest for the armed robbery/PSMV, LOLOLOL!!! No beef, no lawsuit, no NOTHING. Different days of policing indeed.
It sure ain't the London of Mary Poppins.
Lotsa funny shit from 011 back in the day.
Gee... Wonder what happened to Policing
in this town since some 25 to 35 years ago?
Ohhhhhh... That's right...
The Police are the enemy now according to the perpetually
aggrieved demographic and their white guilt addled liberal
democrat progressive sjw/aclu/#blm supporters and enablers.
Ok... Just checking to see if things
might change for the better.
"If you Cops weren't so mean, unfriendly, "RACIST"
and were nice and didn't use dirty, mean and unfair
Police Tactics, we would consider supporting you..."
Police Like You Have No Friends.
Look.
Point & Laugh.
Leave.
634pm. I remember hearing about that. Never saw an early 80s Ford daily driver work car detailed to look like new circa 1995-ish. LOL.
Really think this is Bobbies on foot patrol can push some criminal off a moped(or maybe just help push start their moped if it stalls after they stab somebody so they can be on their way. If you think they can use a police car to do so, that doesn't sound like modern day Londonstan with its ugly non-British pro-terrorist mayor.
If you don't believe it look at the YouTube videos.It's there to see: Criminals rammed off motorcycles by police cars. Now question where you are getting your incorrect world view from. When the public get sick enough if certain crime they eventually demand action.
https://youtu.be/K1Sre8iS1XU here's an example, don't believe everything your (politicised??) news source speed.think for yourself.
