- Possession of catapults, slingshots, or similar items without a legitimate reason
Was there an actual problem with widespread use of catapults in Spelthorne?
Ah, sure, the youths these days are so violent, they're always going about the place besieging castles and knocking down fortifications.
there is a perceived problem with them, and it's an easy win.
Honestly the amount of people I see, particularly in cities but sometimes in normal towns too, whizzing around on an e-scooter or e-bike on pavements/the wrong side of the road, or abruptly darting across the road without even looking, wearing a balaclava in the middle of summer is bizarre.
That absolutely cannot be comfortable. Why would someone want to wear a balaclava like that, other than to avoid being noticed by cameras or the police?
Fair do in the middle of winter, but it was 28 degrees and humid the other day, yet I still saw a few people like that.
