Everyone receiving a benefit in your world is a lazy, bludging criminal or potential criminal. Thanks, until recently that included me. Suck it in old chap, My point wasn't that receiving a benefit made someone filth, Though If you want to get your boxers in a twist and consider yourself in that category then by all means HAVE A BIG FRIGGEN CRY. Muhahahahaha. As for grovel at WINZ, I did once quit work for a summer, Then I rented a flat above my favourite pub, Then I spent 6 months drinking beer, eating burgers, sleeping for days on end and COLLECTING FREE MONEY EVERY THURSDAY. w00t w00t. |

| 498893 | 2006-11-17 03:33:00 | Theres a whole lot that goes on in Hamilton that people don't hear about. That gang fight that happened at my house ..... saw some guys running around my newly brought car in my driveway, at about 2pmish on a Sunday afternoon, so first thought was to go out and tell them to f**k off. After running outside and yelling at them i took stock of what was actually happening. Two younger guys about early 20s was standing by the front door decking and about 5 other guys standing at my driveway. The two younger guys looked scared out of their mind and the other gang (wearing patched jackets) looked pumped up and agro. The gang guys had a baseball bat and a 4 foot cast iron candle stick. One of the younger guys came up to me (i was still standing outside) and said omg can i borrow your deck chair, and without waiting for a reply grabbed it and held it out in front of him. That was when the gang guys attacked. I ran inside and called 111 and was told police had been rung a while ago and then they hung up on me!!. (Women and child inside while gangs fighting in my yard). So not impressed long story a bit shorter. All the guys ended up at the side of my house and all hell broke loose. A lot happened before the actual fight, involving a car and them crashing on a different street before running to my yard. The younger guys had gone to several houses asking to be helped and let in but no one did. I was told after forensics and the detectives left that this was a gang war that had spilt over from a different suburb. They caught about 5 of the guys but unfortunately did not catch the members wearing the gang jackets. I'm still not sure what happened to the two guys but i know it was quite bad because after calling 111 i went back outside (not sure why) and saw 2 guys covered in blood trying to run away. about 1/5 of one side of my house had blood on it and most of the clothes on my line as well as the neighboring houses driveway. Luckily the weapons had been left where the fell so the police could take it away, but i couldn't give any i.d because i was too freaked and stupidly enough could only concentrate on the fact that i had the exact same candle stick.:groan: |

An old story, Cicero, and not the way the system works today - or so I'm told. No way can an able-bodied person collect unemployment benefit that easily now. They must turn up for interviews & have good reasons for not accepting one. And even living in an area with no jobs available won't do.... ..... or so I'm told. (Steps aside from the rush of people who know someone who..... .... turns out to be getting a sickness benefit) |
