Sign of the Times ...

Early this year in February .. my wife came back from work as usual in the evening at about 9:00pm .. parked her car in front of the car as usual ..

.. and promptly had her handbag snatched by two assholes on a motorbike.

And of course she just HAD to hang on to her handbag (more by instinct than anything else) .. resulting in her being dragged on the tarmac for a good 50 meters or so before the two assholes gave up and sped off.

And THAT resulted in cuts and wounds and bruises and a nasty gash on her forehead.

LAST WEEK .. my 4 year old Proton Waja which I had parked in front of house was stolen.

And it was stolen on a Saturday afternoon - between 3:00pm and 6:00pm ... I know, cos the last I looked out at 3:00pm my car was still there.

And it was no longer there at 6:00pm.

We made police reports for BOTH incidents ... and you know what?

The officer taking our statements had the cheek to say :

" Biasa lah, satu hari banyak lapuran dan kes-kes macam nie ( it's normal, we receive lots of such reports everyday )"


Biasa lah ????

Doesnt that stupid guy realise that it doesnt look good on the PDRM and himself that there are so many such cases everyday ???

What in the world are the police doing ??

Why are criminals now so brazen as to snatch and steal stuff in BROAD daylight .. and IN FRONT of people's houses ????

Is it because they know that the PDRM no longer cares about the safety of the very people they are supposed to protect ????

I wonder when it's going to get better .. but methinks it's going to get a WHOLE lot worse before it even feels like it's gonna get better .....
