Husky Posted May 14, 2010 Share Posted May 14, 2010 personally i would have left the guy to it if it was just cash he was after, it's only money, but good of him to help http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/england/west ... 681357.stm Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rich5259 Posted May 14, 2010 Share Posted May 14, 2010 He's 20, so why did they send him to a Young Offender's Institution? What's wrong with grown up prison for a grown up criminal? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

zDan Posted May 14, 2010 Share Posted May 14, 2010 Personally I wouldn't get myself caught playing the fruit machines in a bookies, but that's another matter... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
maz0 Posted May 14, 2010 Share Posted May 14, 2010 Guy's an idiot in my opinion. If that gun was real and he got shot, for what? a few quid from a bookies, who are robbing bast's anyway. Fair enough if it was a poor wee granny, but putting your life on the line like that is just daft. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

maxi-glasgow Posted May 14, 2010 Share Posted May 14, 2010 I don't think the guy done it to stop the robber, I think he perhaps took offence to being threatened by the masked gunman as he looked like he wanted to give him a bleaching.... Or perhaps he knows a replica gun when he sees it. Reminds me of the scene in Snatch where Vinney Jones is sitting in the pub and they try to hold him up, he says "the fact that you've got Replica written down the side of your guns, and the fact that I've got Desert Eagle point-five-oh written on the side of mine.....", "now F off". Brilliant. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Brilliant. Haha, great scene, love that film. I was in a Mcdonald's in city centre one night when an argument between 2 junkies kicked off, I dunno if one of them had more chips than the other but he jumped up and pulled some big serrated looking kitchen knife out his jacket and was screaming something at the other junkie. Everyone panicked and all the girls were doing the usual screaming, folk went for the door and the people at the counter started trying to get behind it, the dumb till workers didn't even think to call the police, they just stood there panicking! My friend at the time phoned them and within about 2 minutes some guy in a black leather jacket and denims came through the door, swaggered right up to the guy, flashed his badge and pulled a baton out his sleeve and shouted 'police, drop the knife' to which the guy didn't comply, he got smacked on the wrist and then cracked behind the knee and forced to the ground within about half a second, cuffed and dragged outside. I wanted to shake the guy's hand, in a situation were everyone was screaming and folk were running for the doors, this guy confronted it head on. Pretty brave stuff, but he made it look like it was just an every day occurrence. When he came in the door he was huffing and puffing, so I assumed he was some undercover guy who just runs around the city centre being the local Batman.

maxi-glasgow Posted May 14, 2010 Share Posted May 14, 2010 Haha, great scene, love that film.
