Is that your stab at sarcasm?? Maybe you should think about it from my point of view, Both my wife and I, work in Security, we have unblemished records going back 20+ years, If we got a conviction for an assault it would probably mean both of our security licences were revoked, and ultimately that is about the only job that we can get around where we live, at least that pays a decent amount of wages. 2 security officers near to us got into a fight, that was caught on CCTV in the street and even though the Police never interviewed or found the guy who was beaten up in the assault, Both officers lost their licences, jobs and probably much more, because the attack was caught on CCTV. But after experiencing what british justice metes out to Thugs and bullies, Our minds have been changed, and at the risk of losing our jobs, I'd rather make the decision to defend ourselves properly should the need arise again, because obviously the justice system favours thugs and cowards and not law abiding citizens, such as ourselves.
