"Apparently" there are shedloads of people heading down the motorway to Byron to stock up before the drug squad hit there.

Don't really know the full facts but apparently Nimbin cops needed a 5 month investigation to figure out people sell pot down there.

Potential criminals must be carefully studying the odds of being caught and punished against possible gains before they leave their Centrelink funded accomoddation on a spree.

One Gold Coast judge has had enough and says he is going to hand down sentences that are going to keep the court of appeal busy

Maybe they stopped getting kickbacks and free dope so decided to act.

Premier Bligh said today she is concerned with this current little crime spree and is considering options.

Had a meal with family at BarItalia on surfers paradise boulevard last night and a mass brawl kicked off on the street, the participants then started robbing peoples glasses and cutlery to use as weapons

Glasgows got a violent reputation, but I never saw that in 34 years there

Just to clarify that's the police shooting crims, not the other way around.

Sorry, not sure they could handle the GC! Can send you up some more 'underworld figures' though.

My family will not go out in GC in the eve as you get approched by drunks etc and my children feel affraid and its not a nice place to be with a family
Sorry, was that you the other night? I was pissed out of my head having just knocked off the local mini mart. I feel like I am really settling in on the Gold Coast now
