Brits Warned Not to Defend Property With Wire Mesh

In an attempt to defend their possessions from the rising tide of lawlessness engulfing moonbattery-ravaged Britain, some have been reinforcing garden sheds with wire mesh. But police warn that this only makes the situation worse — because if robbers cut themselves, they will use the deranged legal system to continue their thievery in court.
Thomas Cooper, of Tatsfield, Surrey, used wire mesh to protect three of his garden sheds after two break-ins over the past four years. He decided to take action after reports of a rise in garden raids in the area.
Mr Cooper said: "I reinforced my shed windows with wire mesh, but was told by the police I had to be very careful because thieves can actually sue you if they get hurt."
Another disadvantage of making it difficult to break into sheds is that the thieves might opt to steal the whole thing and break in at their leisure elsewhere.
Last month Samantha Cullum, a mother-of-three, of Brasted, near Sevenoaks in Kent, had her whole shed stolen when thieves lifted it on to a lorry.
She said: "We had some tools stolen every now and again, but this time they took the entire shed — I couldn't believe it."
With the useless thieves running the government stealing half of their income, what's really hard to believe is that anyone makes a fuss over a stolen garden shed.
Caution: if burglars scratch themselves, they'll sue.
