ONCE again we read about two Asian taxi drivers, one being killed and one kicked unconscious.
Also many English drivers have been beaten up. All this for the small matter of £2.
I cannot believe that incidents like this are occurring in the year 2001.
I myself have used taxis for many years and have always found the drivers to be decent, friendly people, who don't wish anybody any harm.
Is it not time that scum, like the people who have committed these dreadful attacks, should serve MANY years in prison, instead of a pathetic few years or even months.
How bad do things have to get before the government wakes up and takes a more appropriate approach to incidents like these.
