A friend of mine recently moved into one of the new houses at the end of Statham road in Bidston and the whole area is being targetted by a number of youths.
In the last 10 weeks there's been at least 6 break-ins and a several examples of things being thrown at houses. Some of the locals who have been there longer have assured him that it's only a couple of families and that it should calm down but obviously he's not happy and it doesn't feel like that.
Anyone any ideas how this can be solved, - getting the local counciler involved? - find out who's the top policeman in the area and constantly call them? - Getting it in the papers?
use a camera, video and stills, or get a cctv set up and get video evidence along with written/diary evidence both documented with times/dates mate, build up a file and take it to the council/housing association and the police...
As Jonah said, video them and document what they're doing and ASBO the b*stards

Just sort it yourself... I know I shouldnt say that, but get ya mates together and give the little pricks a hiding to remember, this government has no intention of sorting out the criminals, our justice system is getting more and more pathetic every day, an ASBO is just seen as an award, a qualification by these ..., going to prison is seen like a grand expedition, and praised upon.
If the government wont get tough with these pricks, I think the public should and its only a matter of time before there are murders as a result of the general, hard working, decent public majority taking the law into their own hands!!
All the taking diaries crap and CCTV crap is nigh on useless, an ASBO isnt a deterrent, it just makes them worse, and the courts seems to regard CCTV, photos and diaries no higher then you making an accusation nowadays, because of the constraints on the legal system put in place by this criminal loving Labour government!!

if only it was that easy matty, and we all know that the judicial*sp* system protects the criminal more than the victim, so by giving them a hiding himself he is lowering himself to their level, yeh it might be all they understand but he could wind up in trouble himself for protecting his own property ,or maybe even worse, just look at the trial on now, the 5 yobs up for mudering a father of 3 from warrington who approached the gang for damaging property... is it worth taking the law into your own hands if that could be the consequence ?? on occasions like these, i'd have to disagree.
I know what i say is wrong mate, just does my fookin head in so many ppl being terrorized/victimised by these ... and labour not giving a toss.
They shud stick Gordon Brown in an ASBO area for a week see if he likes it!
i'm not saying ur wrong matey, far from it, think they should be dealt with like that too, but just dont think its the way to deal with them, as they are the ones(the victims) who will end up being punished by the law...
