Another Reminder That Britain Has Been Taken Over By Idiots

Another Reminder That Britain Has Been Taken Over By Idiots

What happens when you are minding your own business playing golf--and defend yourself from hoodlums? In Britain, you get arrested for self-defense. From the May 12, 2009 Telegraph:

Golfers arrested after fighting off gang attempting to steal clubs

A group of golfers have been arrested on assault charges after allegedly fighting off a gang who attempted to steal their clubs.


Eight people were arrested following the incident at Sundridge Park Golf Course on Sunday. Two youths, aged 17 and 13 were also taken to south London hospitals with head injuries. The 17-year-old is in stable condition in hospital while the 13-year-old was later discharged and subsequently arrested.

According to reports, the players were about to tee off on the fourth hole of the course in Bromley, Kent, when they were confronted by a group of teenagers brandishing planks of wood.

Despite the group threatening to attack them if they did not hand over their golfing equipment, the golfers apparently fought back. An eyewitness, who did not wish to be named, said: "Everyone had a weapon and they were just trading blows.

"The golfers stood their ground, though.

"I guess because they had their clubs as protection."

As well as the 13-year-old, two other teenagers were arrested, including a 15-year-old boy from Downham and a 16-year-old boy from St Mary Cray on suspicion of affray.

A 33-year-old woman, from Downham, and a 49-year-old man, from Plaistow, have been arrested on the affray charges.

Officers also arrested a 53-year-old man, from Hayes, on suspicion of causing actual bodily harm and a 48-year-old man, from Keston, on suspicion of causing GBH, while a 39-year-old man, from Plaistow, was arrested on suspicion of disorderly conduct.
