After collecting my local news paper today and having a quick scan of the front cover i have come to the conclusion that the place i live in just isnt safe any more. For proof i have attached the 2 front page stories as JPEG images below.

I don't know who's committed the worse crime, the involved parties or the publisher for wording.
 
Meh, some bloke got his arm and leg severed with a machete in a local town near me last week. Weekly occurrences of vandalism, burglary and assault too. It's not just your town mate, our local rag is a wealth of depressing stories too. :(

Our local paper is a disgrace, rid with poor printing quality, miss worded paragraphs and boring stories. I feel ashamed to call it my local paper.

Joey Barton, the footballing thug went on what can only be described as a 'happy slapping' spree down the road from my apartments. What an ignoramus.. wish he'd hit me... would have been the last thing he did for a while.. but the police got him before he had the chance.

By all acounts - he was just whacking people for no reason! How odd!?

Last week some poor lad got seven bells of doodoo beaten out of him for not heeding the demand of a hooded youth who wanted a cigarette..

And the week before that somebody was stabbed to death outside a nightclub...

Quite a shocking state of affairs we live in. If only the police had more powers. And i don't mean 'Move along now, or you might be cautioned.' It should be a case of 'If you dont get out of my face, I will smash your kneecap with my extendable brolly nightstick.' Bring back the stocks I say - it'd soon deter them...

All local papers run these as fillers. When I worked for one, one of our journalist would phone an automated police line that's just someone reading out all the crimes that had happened recently. He'd just sit there for twenty minutes with a notebook, then go and write a load of fillers to use up spare column space.
