IT looks like the youth of today have taken up a new hobby. It's called snatch theft. And wow, boys and girls, it's good fun, isn't it?

It makes you look cooooool and fashionable especially when you flash that mobile phone and I-Pod that do not belong to you and never will! Personally I'd rather be terrorised by a streaker any day - at least they're showing off what rightfully belongs to them.

Why can't snatch thieves take up streaking instead? It's far more ventilating and safer than riding on a bike and shoving innocent people to the ground. Right now, if it's attention that a snatch thief is looking for, forget it, babe. Those helmets cover a greet deal of face and those motorbikes tend to go a little too fast for the camera. The only attention a snatch thief gets is of a wimp who needs two wheels to do the job for them.

Who knows, maybe even their biking licence was stolen too. The original understanding of a thief was that some people were so poor they didn't have enough money to feed their kids or were starving to death themselves.

Robin Hood was a thief. Dick Turpin too. But they robbed people a step above their safety level. They would not maul anyone down with their carriages and four horses. They even asked first before they took anything instead of yanking women by the hair just to get at their handbags.

Giving bikers a bad name

Sorry, snatch thieves, you have no one to speak up for you. And as another victim falls to the floor, lucky to scrape away conscious, all we as a 'moral' society can do is shake our heads, tell our women not to walk at night and write statistical reports on a bunch of morons giving bikers a bad name.

Hmmwhat do you call a person who physically abuses people and yank their belongings because daddy won't give them enough pocket money for a spliff? Oh gee, I dunno, a fresh graduate bored out of their skull who grew up a little too spoilt? Do we pity these brats who refuse to start from a low salary like the rest of us do thinking themselves better thus turning

to crime?

How anyone can call themselves matured and classy by flinging their new Sony Ericsson in my face that 'fell from the sky' is way beyond me. I've been a snatch thief victim myself and so have my dearest ones and my friends too. It gets more common every year and it shouldn't.

While we focus on the 'worrying' culture of 'half naked' and 'immoral' youth, we fail to take notice of what other teenagers are doing. It is so easy to impose a bunch of rules telling us where and where not to go as victims. Why can't we do the same to snatch thieves? They're not even supposed to exist in the first place.

We introduce controversial punishments for rape victims in some states but as for snatch thieves? Nooo, they're too fast and clever to catch. Have we bothered to try and introduce harsher laws and a more negative attitude towards them? Would we make them part of the norm if they did a Robin Hood instead and switched from exhausted workers having no choice but to leg it home, to rich upper class males driving in their BMWs instead?

Just hate snatch thieves

Perhaps these snatch thieves are thinking of a sex change. I have never seen so many men chasing after a handbag. Sorry huns, you're an absolute insult to the transvestite population. Even the naughtier ones start from below to buy that Gucci number. And no way are you going to find them going after someone else's handbag because, ugh, second hand just won't do, darling. I absolutely hate snatch thieves. Yes I've made that clear already. I'm never stuck for ideas on what I would like to do to these bunch of losers who have made me look like a snatch thief on my faithful 150ccYamaha.

Had the law been really justified, we could have pictures of these caught offenders having their arms and legs ripped off. Can't do much snatching after your prison sentence then now, can you? Or how about making them ride their motorcycle with the brakes permanently taken off in a big room full of stakes on the walls? Weesplat. Or letting them do a jumping stunt without a helmet letting the wind fly freely through their hair off a 47-storey building? Or reuniting all the original handbag owners together and letting them thwack their mugger with their handbags all at the same time? How about introducing shit filled handbags easy to grab?

Maybe I sound a wee bit graphic but when you've got mugged by someone who managed to buy himself a bungalow with a Mercedes through a few years of, ahem, hard work, at the cost of someone's tears and even their life - whose blood would you find worth spilling?

So before I get my driving licence and fix my studded bullbars to my jeep with the interchangeable number plate and do my daily rounds at 10pm, someone better do something about these w**kers before I do.

Yaaywatch him fly off a bridge! Hey, isn't that my sister's handbag?
