Been told this by an ex cop - it can take the entire resources of a medium sized town to deal with one traveler encampment if they kick off - and if they do the ones out and about run amok on the back of it - so often its a deliberate policy to pander to the liberal nice nice they're harmless champagne socialist brigade and pretend their way of life isn't inherently incompatible with civilized human behavior, than be the town in the news that was burnt to the ground by them. Theyve killed a cop - they laughed when being sentenced , and police still go soft on them, plus the police get alot of pressure from local polititians to keep the peace. ShIIIII-t and theving are small fry to ransacked towns and assaults.

With todays police numbers and the paperwork that follows, the entire resources of a medium sized town are barely sufficient to deal with the occupants of a single caravan never mind an encampment!

Ive often wondered how small a force it would take to capture Lincoln and turn it into my personal fiefdom.

A couple of tractors with bale trailers and a telehandler or 2 to build a barricade of wrapped silage bales across the entrance of the car park. Then charge the illegal squatters £10,000 to leave.

sadly that would result in you charged with illegal entrapment and include a court order requiring you to pay substantial compensation to the "victims"

 

[teslacoils]

Given recent developments in Lincs rural crime, it seems they will accept any excuse to not prosecute

Nah, make it clear that pedestrians can come and go, but there is a release fee for vehicles. Same as clamping companies.

You could practice by capturing Paris on your own, apparently it has never been defended.

A bloke on my cricket team had his van stolen during a match by Pikeys with his tools in a few months ago.

He was told of a sighting of the van in a traveller site about ten miles away (power of Facebook). He broke into the site in the middle of the night and stole his own van back. He’s got bigger balls than me!

A farmer/butcher not far from here had a cattle box pinched. Traced it to a local camp. Him and a few other went and fetched it back included the pikies 4x4 attached to it. Got his trailer back and gassed the 4x4 up.

Like you say. Wheelbarrow required for his balls.

That ramps things up for a revenge return though

Not being harsh, but I'd not pee off a butcher.

That's what would worry me the most. This was a few years ago now and so far he's being ok (lucky).

 

[Dead Rabbits]

since the wider community is being failed by the police, maybe the same community should do some policing?

That’s third world sh!t. Not that I disagree with it. It’s also why we have guns

Indeed . Who knows what he would put in your sausages?

Only way in my opinion, to tackle all this and other large scale recent lawlessness, the luvvies, and wokes, left wingers will not like it? thats police zero tolerance to crime, come down hard on it all, stop and search etc etc. Dont get me wrong nothings "perfect", but years back in Newyork, USA, then mayor rudy giuliani, introduced, "zero police tolerance", to newyorks streets, in that time, it was reckoned, over 70,000 people, were saved that would have died as a consequence of crime, lawlessness, many of these by the way were black

As much as I agree where would the arrests from the zero tolerance arrests go? Prisons are overflowing.

I am sure there are spaces on the Government flights to Uganda.....

often when stood up too they will back down as ive seen in the past

Seeing this more and more.

They like to put on a show but noticed when challenged they tend to back down.

They want a quiet life and will go we’re life is easiest.

Yes true but it’s also easy / cowardly to torch your straw barn
