He didn't at the time say whether he would feel that way if it was his wife and 2 children. They are clearly very different situations as you say, but rational, sensible thinking isn't always undertaken. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Aldo Raine said: Mass casualty event simply means the local healthcare system is overwhelmed As to your broader point, compassion isn't finite and I'm unsure why events in Gaza mean sympathy can't also be expressed towards the people affected by a bridge collapse in Baltimore What he is saying is that it isn't Hamas Vs Israel- which some people think it is.

You haven't yet answered whether you'd be happy for your house to be bombed and your family slaughtered because a terrorist cell was based in your town?

gonzo Posted April 13 Share Posted April 13 Anyone followed this trial? Guy is snorkeling looking for his mates phone on river bed. Gang of pissed up teenagers accuse him of being a nonce then set about him. He busts out a flick knive and stabs 5 of em, killing one. Defence argue self defence. The video looks pretty shit when hes set up on. https://www.fox9.com/news/apple-river-stabbing-trial-nicolae-miu-verdict Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I went to the states twice and both times after we had battered them in the field we used to have a sports day. The yanks would come out in all their issued PT gear, us lot would be in cut off Ron hills, some form of beer sponsored T shirt which had been won in a boozer, arctic socks and HI - Tec silver shadow trainers, and both times we smashed them in every event.

frank_spencer Posted April 24 Share Posted April 24 Went to Canada with a bunch of Venture Scouts from Wiggin back in the day. One of em was a Royal Marine. Beating the Yanks and Canucks in the wilderness games was lots of fun. Also the fucker started humming damn busters whilst a yank bloke was wittering on about how his next door neighbors dog walkers aunty knew some one who was in new york on 9/11.

Hopefully a lesson for our weaklings when the obnoxious little shits set up at UK universities. It will be the same rent-a-mob who turn up at them all to incite lawbreaking. Just Stop Oil, Socialist Worker, BLM and a variety of anti semitic types will all be there antagonising . I'm going off water cannon and gravitating towards flame throwers.
