UK Acid Attacks Law Change
 

Thugs who throw acid can now be given a life sentence, even if they miss their victim - Crackdown by prosecutors to see thugs handed up to life in jail, and four years for carrying acid


Thugs who carry acid on the streets will face up to four years in prison under a new crackdown announced today by prosecutors.

The Crown Prosecution Service said it would in future seek to charge offenders caught with a corrosive substance with possession of an offensive weapon. The crime carries a potential four year jail term.

Prosecutors will be told to bring even tougher charges ? carrying a maximum life sentence ? against those who throw acid, even if no harm is caused to the intended victim.

It said the move was a response to public concern about a spate of horrific attacks and a recognition of the life-changing consequences that can be inflicted by acid and similar substances.


The announcement came as details were released of the most recent acid conviction in which a burglar admitted inflicting 24 per cent burns on a 69-year-old woman by spraying corrosive liquid on her after breaking into her home in Ilford.

The man also threatened a 90-year-old woman with acid during another break-in and used corrosive substances in other attacks. He will be sentenced at Wood Green Crown Court next month.

Unveiling the new crackdown today, Alison Saunders, the Director of Public Prosecutions, said she was updating her guidance to prosecutors to ensure that the courts had the ?widest possible sentencing power? to deal with acid offenders.

Good - About time - Those cunts are the scum of the earth...

what the media does not say is this is mostly asian on asian attacks but put it across as racially motivated,

as for the white 16 yr old in east london who done a few attacks, he done this against heroin dealers who have plagued his family, the media have said its racial, its not and you will not hear anything more about it as the cops do not want the real reasons to get out,

there is so much afghan heroin in the uk, the gangs can not shift it fast enough, so they are fighting with themselves, and the authorities know all this

WTF are you talking about? - That is total BS - I lived in the middle of this for 20 years - Fucking idiot...

cheapest attack

you keep telling everyone you live in spain, new zealand and mummy's house, which is it then, you are the complete bullshiter

people are using acid to rob, cheat and steal. They use it like using a gun or knife for a hold up :(

Wankers huh!

I lived in London for 30 years on and off - Hackney in fact - Before that I was 0 -16 in Southend, Essex...

During those 30 years I have also lived in New Zealand - Australia and now in Spain - London is still 'home' though - Although that is changing - Spain feels more like home these days.....

Talking of bullshitters - I thought you (DVTimes) had left GFY for good?..

fucking stay in spain we don't want you back, croydon batty boy

Seek and you will find.

Who is 'we'?..

You and your imaginary friend?....

The ol' peaceful 1/5th of humanity at it again.

What is wrong with Croydon? Just curious....

Ban acid ...

Actually, dipping the convicted attacker in a vat of acid until he (she) is dead sounds about right ....

You're such a racist Paul :1orglaugh

Acid (Vitriol) attacks started in Western Europe, UK & America back in the 1800's.

All you racists acting like this is an animalistic minority concoction , or evil Middle Eastern muslim drakonian practice :1orglaugh

You're either completely ignorant and a racist, or you know what you're doing and are racist. Neither option fares well for you going to heaven Paul :1orglaugh.

Four years isn't enough

they are not using industrial acid dipshit they are using bleach and other cleaning products and have been using acid on many of their own women for decades for not complying with arranged marriages

but hey people who point out the wrongs of certain people are racists

You didn't read my link. Vitriol attacks started with whites. Fact.

Why do facts piss some people off I don't get it? A simple link to facts triggered you.

The funny thing is, he defends the same people that want to throw him off 5 story buildings for being gay..go figure :helpme

You know that's not true :disgust You know how I feel about nuking the ME.

Facts are facts. Acid attacks are evil no matter who does them :2 cents:

Oh wait, you said don't nuke the .00000342% that don't want to throw you off a building.

Fuck that, nuke them all.

Wherever there is islam there's no peace.

i second that the religion of peace has always been nothing but death and destruction, i wonder where it says in their great book lets destroy all the ancient sites to wipe even more evidence of human existence

and bladeonfire that fact is for that type of acid you fucking batty boy

Religion is evil. Not all religious people are evil. A lot of religious people are only that way because of social or familial pressure and don't believe the shit stuffed down their throats.

So when I say some muslims are good people, I know this from personal experience growing up. I have a deeper understanding of that particular niche of people with a couple immigrant families in my rural neighborhood in Vancouver, Washington.

Life in prison for battery? Might as well kill them.

Religion is evil? You are dumber than you let on.

How can something that gives people hope be evil?

Did it reveal a common factor in the attacks?

Why all I did was link to the news stories. Does it show a common link?

Very true. People who fail to point out the failings of certain cultures based on colour are Racist.

Would they denounce this if it was the Far Right or White?

So is it now predominately White People?

If you allow religion to run your life you soon find the religion sets new boundaries to what you must do to be "faithful".

We saw this in Europe during the centuries prior to the 19th century. We see it in communities in America. We see it in the ME.

So your good muslims will soon be told to do bad things. Worse than they do today. Which is do they marry non-muslims, would they accept a gay son or daughter, etc. All religions are used to control people. It's the level of control we accept that makes the problem good or bad.

False hope isn't worth a damn.

The amount of hope it gives people is soon outweighed by the evil it has done.

Looks like you ignored what I said and spewed your typical propoganda.

A lot of people are christian/muslim/Jew in name only and only attention for cultural and familial reasons.

You love saying all of this group are this or that and that's not reality Paul. Just like all pornographers are not (fill in the blank)

all pornographers are (fill in the blank) prohibited from filming or taking photos in london

Paul is an expert on Islam and webcams...his combined experience in both fields is zero, but he knows Islam better than anybody because he googled a bit LOL also the economy LOL

Just because you7 know a few muslims doesn't make them all nice. It makes the ones you know nice. Then there are different degrees of niceness.

In Europe, most muslims communities have given up all attempts to integrate and for them, multiculturalism means living separately.

Four in ten British Muslims want some aspect of Sharia Law enforced | UK | News | Express.co.uk

Do you see how they want to live in the UK? They want to enjoy Western benefits while living under their Dark Ages religion. That doesn't allow them to marry outside their religion, has extreme punishments for being gay, a more extensive list of what Sharai Law is. SHARIA LAW â?? LIST OF KEY RULES â??

But no worries, you know some muslims who were nice to you.

But back to my other posts. Did the link show the Acid Attacks were carried out mostly by a race or did it show that they were evenly spread?

Or did Bladewire immediately assume it was a racist remark? When all it was was a link to the news.
