    Aggravated robbery is a very serious charge, indicating a use of force or weapons. It’s crucial that our legal system handles these cases with the gravity they deserve. The community needs to feel protected, and arrests like these are a step towards that.

    Time to consider the reintroduction of the cat-o’-nine as a first course for these wasted sperm, followed by the main course – a hefty jail term WITH HARD LABOUR – no dessert!!!
