Three quarters of the Uk adult population need vision correction.
About 80,000 of the UK's population are in the clink.
Apart from a few notable exceptions, these are two mutually exclusive groups IME, a point I'd often considered at school while getting my head kicked in yet again because I was a speccy four eyed tw*t.
So what is it that makes spectacle wearers on the whole, law abiding, upstanding members of society and non-spectacle wearers, murderers and rapists?
It's a tricky one but I think it's a sound basis to generally treat anyone with 20/20 vision as highly suspicious and ban them from doing anything cool or exciting like driving a car or drinking beer (for example before sfb starts) until a lengthy series of unpleasant and intimidating profile tests are carried out on them to determine their predisposition for kicking off or nicking stuff.
At the very least, in instances where more than one men be accused of comitting a crime, we should always consider the non-specky to be the guilty party unless proved otherwise through the use of 4 different high definition CCTV sources and a signed deposition of good character from the queen.
Now, where's that web page where you create a petition to parliment? I know I'll get a good response because most of us are speckies.
Im all for stereotyping people, but I just dont think this adds up.
Far more likely all the bully's didnt have 20/20 vision but refused to wear their specs because this made them look uncool. The resulting migraines+poor sight lead them to get low marks at school this probably made them so angry they felt the need to take their aggression out on people who actually wore specs.
Ie "Those who shout the loudest are probably the most guilty" I think this a far better statement to start organising a lynch mob from. (probably cos I dont wear glasses)
so who are the notable exceptions?
is it Andy Dufrain and that guy Dustin Hoffman plays in Papillon?
hang on, they're not real
Sometimes the opposite is true, when Clark Kent takes his glasses off he becomes superman!
Andy DuFresne ends up wearing glasses though, is that a way of pleading innocent?

Speccy freaks! You're all just attention seeking ginger wanabees.
I like what you are trying to do, being a speccy four eyes myself, but I'm not sure if it's got legs. Whilst it is undeniably true that more basic thuggery is done by knuckle-draggers with 20/20 vision, I would say that crime requiring more intelligence and cunning is often done by double-glazed individuals.
Does your post, Coffeeking, suggest that Harold Shipman was ridding the world of speccy crims...?
That Facebook child murderer who was locked up this week was a speccy runt. They probably called him Penfold at school.

Aah but they're too smart to get caught so the crimes never even happened.
bananaworld - 'll let you draw your own conclusions!
can't we just round up the chavs and dump them (and their staffies) in the mid atlantic?
