Oh – Now I remember – Smiley is Tommy – undiluted and spitting nails!!!
I like something to fire me up sometimes!
My own eradication programme would be to rid the land of any of the last traces of punk.
Ban all punk music, punk clothes, hairstyles etc. until history forgets that this embarrassing episode in the history of our rock/youth culture has disappeared from our collective memories. LOL!I mean, so many people were hoodwinked by a handful of blatant opportunists who created the whole thing as a money-spinning gimmick.
I think a lot of muslims must feel like prisoners of their faith. I mean it seems un-natural that so few speak out and I think it’s because they are scared, not because they are sympathetic to the extremists.
An interesting study for a brave investigative journalist would be looking into what forms (if any) of internal policing and co-ercion are being used in our muslim communities.
It’s just sad that 3 people died in an accident during the Isle of Man TT races. Predictable, but very sad.
Since the Isle of Man is not part of the UK, the safety, or otherwise, of the TT races is really is not something the media can turn into a major domestic issue.
I could never be accused of having any sort of liking for islam – read some of my older posts. I am a militant atheist. If I knew any muslim people, which I don’t at present, I would probably like some and not others, as with any section of the population, but I will never be made to like their religion or any other religion.
By far the greatest number of people killed by islamic terrorists around the world have been other muslims – e.g. Iraq, Afghanistan and right now in the Gaza strip. Muslims are the ones suffering most at the hands of these evil extremists who have hijacked their religion and are succeeding in subverting it into a tool for the creation of an Arab-supremacist empire.
We are dealing with a situation where extreme attitudes and behaviour that were once associated with small obscure wierdo cults (e.g. Wako or Jamestown) are now being spread within one of the world’s major religions.
You tell me? Why do superbike enthusiasts ride their bikes along our local by-pass at 150 mph? Why do things get stolen from shops? It’s called breaking the law and some people do it and often they get away with it. They shouldn’t, but they do.
Anyone who puts up a poster inciting hatred is breaking the law, actually.
What was Scotland being compared with? It is not a country in its own right, but part of te UK, so it can’t be compared to Belgium, Netherlands, Ireland or other sovereign nations.
If it was being compared to Bavaria, Brittany, Catalonia or other semi-autonomous regions, that would be a valid comparison.
I have known people who exert power through portraying themselves as victim.
Scale this up to portraying a whole group of people as victims (whether true or false) and you have a revolutionary political movement.
It’s at times like this I feel like reaching for my red flag!!!!!
Red flag to a bull???? LOL
