Rough justice/just desserts
I’m always amused by tales of criminal stupidity, and in particular doing something really dumb while committing their crimes and inadvertently delivering themselves a “do it yourself” punishment.
The latest one occurred on the Gold Coast last night. Two men, held up a man at knifepoint at the Stockland West Burleigh shopping centre, and stole his car, a Falcon XR6. The thieves drove on to the Pacific Motorway and headed north towards Nerang, at high speed. Within 10 minutes, they’d managed to lose control of the car and crash head on into a truck travelling the other way.
Result. 2 thieving scum dead. Fortunately in administering their own death sentences they didn’t take anyone else with them.
I suppose I should feel some sympathy for the families and friends of the 2 dead men …. but I can’t say I do. In fact, good riddance to bad rubbish is the sentiment that comes to my mind.
