If I were the owner I'd arrange to have the fence quietly removed, temporarily.
Pensioner arrested on suspicion of murder after a suspected burglar was stabbed to death.

Because what that homeowner really needs is to let everyone have full access to his garden.

Save a few bob on flowers, at least.

yeh. I'll have to tell the old blokes at the mosque that they are trendy when arrogant Englishmen barely have the common decency to say hello and ask how they are.

Nope, that isn't a fair comparason at all.
It would be the family of a burglar who killed a homeowner he was attempting to rob removing the flowers left for said victim of a burglary.
If the family of the victim of the burglary went out of their way to put a shrine up outside the home of the burglar even though the death didn't happen there you'd be on to something.
Why are you bringing travellers into it again? Besides, still doesn’t work. If a Traveler was burgled and they defended themselves. I’d have just as much Empathy for them and Discussed at those venerating the burglar. That’s just standard.

trendy indian buy to letters.
In fact, the local community should rally round this guy and his misses . This family from elsewhere coming in robbing one of theirs, the neighbour, fuck that shit. Look out for each other. That is the lesson to be learned here. Don’t tolerate this intimidation this antisocial shit. There is your class solidarity. Not going all Jerry Springer but seriously.

In terms of that bit, I thought so as well when there were the first reports of the tributes being laid. But from what I've seen it's really not been like that. No threats, nobody staying for ages, no blokes at all (afaik, but don't hold me to that). The things left there have been just the same stuff you get when anybody has been killed/dies young. Equally, again afaik, the fact that kids teddies and tributes to a dad have been ripped off the fence and stamped on hasn't led to anything. If there was some kind of attempt at inflicting psychological terror on the street that would have happened - but hasn't. I'm sure the pensioner and his family see it as intimidation - I would in his place - particularly as he will be traumatised himself. But in terms of intimidation, objectively, it's nothing like the genuine intimidation that really does happen to some people, in their homes in certain circumstances.
No doubt somewhere on facebook threats have been made, though to be honest I haven't heard about those either.

Instead of arresting anyone or taking no act at all and risking a violent confrontation, the police should use some common sense and simply restrict access to the street temporarily to residents only (plus postmen, deliveries, etc). And get rid of all those press parasites as well. It would soon calm down and this unedifying spectacle would come to an end.

"this guy and his misses"
If the auld bugger had just had the decency roll over and let them get on with their redistribution of wealth efforts, then there wouldn't be such a long drawn out thread, and continuous much ado about nothing in the media
But he had a go, and didn't ''miss'
Inconsiderate auld bugger, now the council/plod will have their previous 'shortcomings' highlighted at every occasion.
Whereas if he had "missed" his murder and robbery would have just been another weary 2 line story on page 2 of whatever paper that even bothered to cover it.

This is right. That's my immediate reflex, anyway.

You have a very good point, but "positively dangerous" ?...mebbes not the right adjectives? it's unnerving,and definitely worrying and I see where your coming from, but "dangerous" assumes an "imminent danger" where I see it as a slow cancerous rot, of everything that previously held communities together.

Because they are knowingly and deliberately sticking up two fingers to the general public.

Terry Prachett would have gotten at least two books out of this, Guards, Guards, episodes 1,2,3 at least, Sam Vines was created for 'incidents' such as this.

If the pensioner had been killed and his neighbours had laid floral tributes...this would induce a "moral panic"
Explain...please do?

Obviously, but if this place isn't about a bit of light amusement alongside serious debate, what is its point?

The bigger picture. A society that has rotteted from within, these people are a product of "Thatcher politics" the must have this or that at any cost mentallity/view, Greed, Deception, intimidation, threats towards elderly and vunrunable (sp). Including not just one burgulrary (I refuse to spell it correctly BTW) but many. So people are upset angry not just at what happened on that one night but the past 40 years or so.
Just my 2 cents

Nah. Cunts (and families of cunts) like this have existed forever. In the town I grew up in the Hanbury’s and the Johnson’s had been making everyone else’s lives a misery since the 50s.
