Old man mugged, beaten, at Belconnen Mall

While we’re advocating capital punishment for drug dealers and assaults can we put in the cyclists that ride two abreast?

Everyone is avoiding the main topic here but this man!

Of course there would be high quality CCTV appropriately positioned in the Westfield carparks in order to deter the low life from resorting to brazen,vile behaviour, wouldn’t there?

Crucifixions are to the left.

We are of course assuming that this person took drugs, however this could be the unfortunate consequence of flaunting wealth in front of someone from an oppressed minority. If there were sufficient services, education, social welfare, and money put into this community there would be no need for people to act out their frustrations. [/sarcasm]

Actually, you will probably find that an educated person with employment and an income is highly unlikely to commit a buglary/assault at 9am at Belconnen Mall. 1am in Civic for the educated person’s assault.

Probably goes out with the other female of aboriginal appearance that had a spate of muggings at the bus interchange/mcdonalds last year.
There is a sect of people of aboriginal appearance in belconnen at the govie flats. So were paying for them to be close to go and mug people.

Good thing we’re spending money on cycle ways, soon the muggers will be mobile.

Its not about deterrence its about eliminating violent criminals off our street!

Well yeah – I’m not in favor of the death penalty at all, but there are clearly some people who need to be incarcerated for a very long time.
Not necessarily to rehabilitate them.
Not necessarily to punish them.
Simply to protect the rest of society by physically preventing removing from them all opportunities for further offense.

Hope the victim is ok, but if he happens to later die in the next few years from the injuries sustained i’d like to see this prick done for murder. 75 years olds dont heal like the rest of us, a major fall and you could be gone.

Where is the CCTV capture? obivously hanging around the bank.

Is that you Chief Justice Higgins?

Nah, he’s just pre-empting IP! 🙂

Aren’t the Ice dealers, at least the ones manufacturing or importing the stuff, all Bikies armed with 9mm pistols, courtesy of a Sydney post office and possibly also corrupt Customs staff?

This robber should also be sought for crimes against fashion – mixing a brown top, black pants and white shoes.

Seriously though, this was a nasty crime and there’s only one place for the perp – Hume Hilton, Monaro Marriott or whatever we’re calling it today. Where he’ll be bored to death for four years while Justice Refshauge decides what to do with him.

This is unbelievable crap. It makes me feel sick and furious. I was walking into the door from the top carpark with two of my boys exactly as this was happening.

Sinking the slipper into a bloke that age is an act so disgusting that words can’t describe it. My Dad is 78 now. He’s a bit doddery and I can easily imagine how this went down, with my old man as the victim.

I hope the victim is OK, and may the perp rot in hell.
