Stupid and dangerous

It never ceases to amaze me the number of criminal knuckleheads who consistently underestimate the long arm of the law.

They told you they would be out in force, and yet still, the number of netted numbskulls caught by Operation Whiskey Legion continues to climb.

Among the notorious is a red-plater clocked at doing more than 160kph on the old Bruce Highway, a DV druggie rapist nabbed by the dog squad, a gun and explosives nut who is also a rock-spider, and scores of drug and drunk drivers.

The sheer lack of intelligence by these people makes me think we should just remove the warning labels on everything and let nature sort it out.

The only problem is, that these stupid people could take out a fleet of innocents, as well as themselves.

Want to make your life better?

Just don’t break the law, morons.

It’s not rocket science.
