As opposed to myself, you sir, actually have talent!
Yes, you’re supposed to provide tea and a handy carrying sack for any burglar you find redistributing society’s wealth.

“Sir, did you push this man out your window?”
“No, Constable. ‘E’s, uh, ‘e’s restin’.”
Pinin’ for ’Er Majesty’s Prisons.
“Strangeways, here we come.”
“But England never had a constitutional right to bear arms.”
Well actually they did, laid out in the English Bill of Rights of 1689, capstone of the Glorious Revolution. It was just that right which the Americans demamded be set out in their own Bill of Rights.
Strangeways have found us,
Strangeways have tracked us down ...
Actually saw a bunch of British military families at Seaworld and Disney World last September. They were very nice people.
Who says the guy was thrown out? He probably slipped. Nasty accident, that.
Hi mate,
This is another reason why the Daily Mail cannot be trusted. The police arrive on the scene with a bloke knocked-out on the pavement having fallen out of a window. It stands to reason that the homeowner would be brought in for questioning about what exactly had happened. What if the man hadn’t been a burglar and the homeowner was making it up? What if the man had been a relative and a disagreement had occurred? What if the burglar had been restrained and the homeowner had then taken vigilante action on the burglar and hurled him out of the window when he was already caught?
The key point in the article is that the homeownwer has NOT been charged with anything. Therefore, where is the story in this?
Such articles do not paint a true picture of law and order in the UK. I remember people on this website predicting that John Smeaton, the baggage handler who gave an attempted suicide bomber a good kicking in the UK would be arrested. Instead, he’s being honoured for his bravery. I implore people not to use notoriously biased, unreliable newspapers like the Daily Mail as a proper source on life in the UK.
Cheers
A haiku is 17 syllables in three lines- 5,7,5.
Traditionally, the first two lines are observations, and the third line universalizes the observation. Like this:
Burglar in Manchester
Crumpled on lawn by owner
then owner crumpled

You mean to say that your media distorts the truth? I’m Shocked, Shocked I tell ya!
