If i was a women and i spent all night with a load of famous footballers at their private party spending their money and drinking their drink, then they asked me if i wana go up to their room. i would have to be really stupid to think i’m going up there for a game of scrabble. I’m not for one moment saying any women “ask’s for it” but for god’s sake footballers have hardly got a good reputation. :roll:
So what you’re saying is, if a man buys a woman a drink, he has the right to take something in return, whether she likes it or not. After all, she owe’s him something now, does’nt she???
Women should’nt expect anything less than a pathetic excuse like this from a Neanderthal like yourself eh
I don’t think he was saying that at all pebbles,,,,,on the contrary.
She did go up to his room though didn’t she, and as chicken said,,,,,it wasn’t to play scrabble. Don’t be so naive as to put yourself in that situation in the first place!
As chicken said too, footballers have hardly got a good rep to start with. All hair gel n over active testosterones :roll:

I am an atheist and, while I don’t object strongly to nativity plays in schools, I’m quite happy to see them phased out. I believe children should be taught ABOUT religions rather than indoctrinated INTO them. The same goes for politics. Allowing the spread of hardline ‘ethical’ views of any kind, under the excuse of ‘tolerance’ is a dangerous folly that will take its toll on the coming generations.
Well said B55 =D>

You wouldnt notice much difference if every copper in Britain went on strike. :lol:
Crime levels would probably stay the same – as must coppers would rather harrass innocent people than catch all the murderers, robbers, rapists etc..
I bet they would get all the Community Officers doing their dirty work, pretty much the same as before they went on strike. :roll:
Did you by any chance get caught speeding once? Only I work with the police (not a cop) and that’s generally the sort of thing you hear from people who think they have a divine right to break the law so long as it’s not a ‘real’ crime.
No I have never been on the wrong side of the law. But I have had friends pulled over because they drive a fancy car and the police feel its appropriate to pull them over and waste their time because they obviously think its suspicious to be well off and have a nice car. I uphold the law every day of my life, I agree if somebody’s breaking the law then it is a crime. I am just making out the point that some crimes are more serious than others. I am not saying its right.
And it is true the police can be pretty useless, and they do get the Community Officers to do all the leg work. Once when a car backed into my mother in law’s car and drove off a nearby community officer refused to help or even radio through to the police. He then told my mother in law to make the 20 minute journey to the police station, and the copper at the desk then radioed through and told the Community Officer to follow it up. What a waste of time! So forgive me if I think police can be a waste of the Tax payers money.And your statement Johnboy is a typical one,,,,,you might not be as you say, a cop, but you work with the police.
Of course we can’t have an opinion of saying that they’re sometimes just bloody minded and over the top! without us having had some kind of prior conviction,,,, :roll:
She is just soooooooooooo bliddy gawwwwgus Mark.
Congratulations to you and Stephi. Nice christmas present eh :wink:
Please give Stephi all my love and tell her well done, Caitlin is beautiful, enjoy every precious moment :D

well…..his religion isnt a country is it? it was the country that had her on trial yes?
Yes his religion but he was representing that country
i was in the room last night and saw it all and il be honest the amount of racism shown by alot of jc reg users was actually a bit upsetting
Racism is a perception in a lot of cases, I was accused by him of being racist, I wasn’t, more his perception, or in laymans terms, the way he preferred to see it cos then he could play the victim
he himself actually admitted that the extremists are a minority and they have no respect for them etc he hated it all as much as anyone else but i think he got the brunt of it all because he was a muslim, people where blaming him for every terrorist attack everything!!
People were not blaming him for every terrorist attack, they were asking his opinions on it and yes I agree, he did say it was a minority. Personally tho, I asked him (and if you were there you already know), that if he knew of a faction in his own temple, would he report it,,,,,he didn’t answer it did he.
even having a go at him about a teahcer who wore a veil! like he had something to do with it
Lastly,,,,,I did not, as you put it, ”have a go” at him about that incident. I did point it out as yet another way that some of them want to change the goalposts when it suits them, I didn’t say it was his fault however.
If your going to post about what happened in the room last nite TM, I suggest you get your facts straight first,,,,,there were others of us there too
he was british! so he wasnt representing a country at all! thats like saying a catholic represents rome!
if you want to dress it up however you want then thats fine but i do remember it all being about opinion, no one is wrong remember
Ok, have it your way.
I’m not however, dressing up anything, it wasn’t racist,,,he chose to call it racist before he left, because it suits him :twisted:

this story is stupid absolutely stupid
you could argue that she should of known better but…still
by the way what is a mullah?
This argument raged on into the early hours of this morning TM. It was a very rare night when I was up late and in the Lobby.
The discussion got to religion and as we all know, it’s an emotive subject. One guy anyway, claiming to be a muslim was trying to ‘educate’ us all on the correctness of the situation and how it had been handled. When asked, he said that the sentence was very lenient and she was very lucky, it could in his words,,,,,,”have been so much worse”.
He then went on to say that the Muslim faith was all seeing, dancing, knowing it all and the best there will ever be, not to mention forgiving!!! Several pple asked then, including me, if your faith is so forgiving, why did this matter ever come to court, why wasn’t it seen for what it was. A slip up? a mistake? on who’s part though, the teacher or the children, we asked also, if the teacher is to be punished, why not the children then, theyr’e the ones originally named the stupid bear :roll: He merely continued to rant how it could have been much worse, she should have made herself aware of things such as this, it was a slur to the prophet etc etc etc, but never once, did he answer the question that was asked in the first place,,,the one regarding forgiveness :lol: :lol: :lol: He did in fact just dissapear, shame some of the other double standard thinking countrymen of his, don’t do the same :roll:

Why aint there no normal people in the audience?
I sit there (not every week) and shout out what I want to say and they pick some boring liberal fart to answer… oh its ok bla bla bla to every bloody answer!!
Where have all the normal people gone? Have they all joined JC cos there are plenty of opinions jostled around on here.
A couple of years ago it came to our local theatre (not JC on the road… now that provokes my imagination!) and the “application” form included you putting three questions you would ask, the show is a bloody set up!
After watching Spooks on Tuesday I dream of the day that what happenend in that episode happens over here… the least that would do is prove its live! grrrrrr
I agree Sharon, it is as you say, ‘set up’ and any difficult or awkward questions don’t make it.
What happened in Spooks!! I missed it this week?

Uber,,,,,,,,the pavement isn’t the place for ‘adult’ cyclists. Iv’e no problem with children cycling on the pavement, it’s far safer for them, but adults are not, and should not, be allowed to ride them on either the pavement or pedestrian walkways, they really are old enough to know better.
Another pet hate of mine is when they cycle, on the pavement, to the pelican crossing, press the button for the lights to change and then cycle across!!! It’s ignorance on a huge scale. :twisted:
I totally disagree
Adult cyclists are on the whole far more likely to manoevre safely around pedestrians than kids anyway for one. Infact with current levels of child behaviour and their near untouchable status in the eyes of the law kids are actually far more likely to hit people just for the heck of it
Also, the moement cyclists start paying road tax, buying insurance and having to pass a test then, and only then SHOULD they belong on the road
As for being “on the path”, they wouldnt be, their cycle paths would be, so if they stay in them and you stay on your pedestrian part of the path whats yer problem?
I wouldn’t have a problem if they were in and STAYED IN!! their cycle paths. As for them being far more likely to ”manoevre safely around pedestrians”,,,,,iv’e yet to see it.
I wouldn’t have had a problem on Tuesday either, had the ‘cyclist’ who almost landed in the buggy containing my freinds little girl apologised,,,,,,he merely gave me a mouthful of abuse like it was my fault for being in his bloody way in the first place!
Well if you didnt see him coming maybe it was your fault, or 50% of it at least, after all cyclists are hardly invisible nor tiny, and the more speed something has the harder minute adjustents to direction become
So for the same reason I wouldnt walk infront of a container lorry and just “expect” them to swerve around me perhaps its time pedestrians also stopped walking around as tho theyre in some hallucinagenic daydream and started to pay attention to their surroundings too for a change
By the same token,,,,,,,i was in the shopping PEDESTRIAN precinct,,,,,so I really shouldn’t have been having to look out for rogue cyclists, because they shouldn’t be riding their cycles through pedestrian precincts in the first place,,,,,,, :twisted:
