The Dangerous Dog Trial.

In London tonight that could actually refer to any one of three things.

It could refer to the people who been arrested in a series of police raids across south London following yesterday's (1/8/12) fatal stabbing of a 16.y.o black male in the London Borough of Lewisham. Well they will be the custody cases up tomorrow around 08:30 local. Really it's getting so routine I'm starting to think they're just letting it happen so that with half of them in jail and the other half dead they've don't have to explain why they can't be bothered to pay to educate for them or why there aren't any jobs for them. Almost makes you want to throw a brick doesn't it.

It could also refer to Simon Cowell's stalker. I can't remember the exact details but it was sort of dressed up in the clothes of the previous residents of number 50 in an attempt to promote discussion of how much access they're allowed to my property and what if any punishment they should receive.

It could also refer to the actual dangerous dogs trial where the police have been telling the court how they wept like children after seeing their colleagues attacked by a pitbull terrier while on-lookers filmed it on their mobile phones. This is actually an old story but it's come to court dressed in the clothes of a somewhat amusing story of an associate of mine. One morning he was lying in bed when suddenly a police "tornado team" (full riot gear, long shields) came in through the door. After they'd subdued him, handcuffed him and put him in the back of the van they opened his kitchen door at which point they were introduced to his dog. I can't remember the exact breed but apparently the Romans bred them to fight lions. After about five minutes the police had to get my associate out of the van, un-handcuff him and politely ask if he wouldn't mind help with removing the dog from the police officers arm because the firearms team weren't available

Anyway sorry for the early start but I've got a feeling it will be a long night because I've not even started on the iPod. I'm sure there will be fewer dead then the last time the man came around though.

20:20 on 2/8/12.
