It is really getting silly now, the authorities just keep giving more chances even though evidence and public opinion is stacking up against them. Its as if the Penal Reform crowd are making the call.
Gers - eh, we got lifted by the Police
'The Man' - they make mistakes all the time.
Gers- well, we told a white lie
'The Man' - ok, don't do it again
Gers- well, we actualy stole some sweets
'The Man' - Sorry, have some free sweets and don't do it again.
Gers - when we say stole some sweets, they happened to be in the glovebox of the car we stole.
'The Man' - have you got petrol money?
Gers - we beat the guy up to steal his car, but it wasn't bad
'The Man' - I'm sure he deserved it.
Gers - it wasn't 'bad', it was fatal
'The Man' - NHS these days huh
Gers - we drove his car to his house, raped his wife, killed his kids, painted his dogs balls blue and torched the street.
'The Man' - Everybody deserves a second chance and you don't even need to say sorry.I will put you in the Rehabilitation Scheme, and a change of name will see you able to carry on as before. You didn't deserve all that spite, a little mistake was all it was. It is me that is sorry.
Well, I wish in true hippy spirit, that someone would stick it to 'The Man'
