DOORSTEP VISIT THREAT - MacKenzie Hall threat letter

Re: DOORSTEP VISIT THREAT - MacKenzie Hall threat letter

I expect that they might get something of a clue when water issued from the "barrel" rather than a bullet.

Knowing the way these people act, do you really believe they wouldn't play it for all it was worth? I can just imagine the scene; "Honestly officer, I thought he was about to shoot me!! How was I to know the gun wasn't real?" An "accidental" soaking with a hose pipe you might get away with. This all depnds of course on whether anyone actually turns up, chances are it's another empty threat.

Re: DOORSTEP VISIT THREAT - MacKenzie Hall threat letter

You are absolutely correct re: reasonble force. However how, exactly, do you think skirting a water pistol at them would contstitute reasonble force? I understand the temptation (wish it was legal to pour boiling oil on them) but think before you act. How will it benifit your cause to get yourself arrested? Well considering water is harmless whilst attempting to restraint someone can and have in some cases lead to serious muscle injury to the person, then i think squirting them with water is the lesser of the two forms of reasonable force, not only that it is commonly used in riots even in the UK and known as a water cannon

Additionally, if you point a "weapon" at someone, how is that person to know, or claim they know, it's not a real gun. Is it really worth the hassle that might come your way?

As for the term "weapon" well considering the vast majority of water guns are bright red/orange/yellow and have a container on the top/bottom of them where the water is stored, then it is pretty easy to distinguish between them and an actaul gun and lets face it, only an idiot would actually pull a real gun on a trespasser. Though you can use a gun (game keepers, farmers for example) to evict them from your land, so long as you do not actually fire with intent to harm them. Also new laws that are looking like they will soon be enforce actually allow for you to use certain weapons by force to protect your property - And before you respond with yes for burglars, i will point out that they are also trespassers.

Were the plods to send an armed response unit, one should meekly comply with their demands and, upon them finding no weapon present, the doorstepping dimwit would be charged with wasting police time.

Perhaps it would be better to use a well rinsed bottle that formerly held washing-up liquid?

People, we're all on the same side here, I hope. Lets not argue between ourselves and loose sight of the real enemy. I only suggest it's in no ones best interest to go beyond the law. Keep the moral high ground and don't let the buggars drag you down to their level.

I note that MotorMile seems to be using a trading name not specifically mentioned in their Consumer Credit Licence, no. 0628173, which also seems to be curiously absent from their website.

How interesting.

Do you know anything at all about Shelley McIntyre Ltd. which, although a "dormant" company, seems to have a legal charge against Motormile Finance UK Limited?

Its list of directors is also curious ---> link

Re: DOORSTEP VISIT THREAT - MacKenzie Hall threat letter

we found diddly squat about this shelly mcinyre ltd at all what gets me is how can you get a legal charge on yourself ????? I did queary this with TS and they seems to think its all above board Myself I am not convinced I just have a feeling that if anyone pays them that the money isnt towards the debt they owe but to his own personal debt to clear
