Old time proper gangsters viewed arrest as occuptional hazard& didn't attack police for nicking them. Why can't fuckwit protesters do same?
@Peter_Kirkham Isn't it also assault under common law? I'm starting to see statutes as 'man-made laws'. Some devised from vested interests.

@C7RKY media, etc. The problem is NOT our laws, it is our politics, where Parliament is being treated with contempt by Govt & Parties. -
@Peter_Kirkham Indeed. Seems to me the law has become almost a product of our politics these days. No wonder it's such an ass sometimes, eh? -
@C7RKY A small amount maybe. Not the vast majority. Need to be more precise in your targeting if you want majority to take notice! -
@Peter_Kirkham I know where my sights are set. It's just hard not to look around on the journey sometimes too. We have much to fix imho...
