Re: Hail The Baphomet

I didn't want to post this but Marjorie said to me "Barry you really should reach out to that young man" and so.......... Look we all had a rebellious phase but a close affinity and/or association with the Dark Lord is not going to lead to any place healthy :flowers: I'm a broad minded man...

Re: Minneapolis riots

What do you guys think about the brick stacks appearing in several cities? I discussed this with Marjorie and we both feel that no doubt which ever builders merchant has kindly donated these bricks has their heart in the right place, but surely planning for the rebuild should be left in the hands o...

Ok, just a quick one, meant to mention this yesterday but things have been hectic here at the vicarage as one could imagine. Troubled times we live in, no doubt it has been hard for everyone what with being stuck inside due to COVID-19 and everything. Being cooped up with no football or major sports...

I only support the Official Monster Raving Loony Party Visionaries- https://www.mirror.co.uk/usvsth3m/7-monster-raving-loony-party-5644717 I had the pleasure of voting for the Natural Law Party in the 1994 E.U. elections, they had a policy of replacing school assembly times with a 15 minute yoga se...

Re: Minneapolis riots

In Britain we have a system for things like this, I can't give you the precise names of terminologies for the procedure/s because I'm just remembering what I was told by a senior policeman once. It's something like this- when a group of officers are going on a detail that is likely to lead into conf...

Whoops, I didn't even read this piece of news and I was already speculating this might have actually happened.

Re: Minneapolis riots

It just shows how broken the system is. The selection, the training, the oversight. It's an abomination. Finally someone has picked up on this, all talk of further causes for rioting, police reaction etc. are more or less in the sociological realm of thought but we are talking about a potential cri...

The reality of this is that he said a totally normal thing that people found a way to twist, a big pile of circumstantial evidence is useful in lending weight to a theory but it can't be the central plank and certainly not a one off piece of 'evidence'. He doesn't have to consider his words to the e...

Re: 2020 US Elections

I'm probably missing something, but I don't see why Trump's statement of "when the looting starts, the shooting starts" would be promoting violence. That there is shooting when there is looting just seems as a logical consequence to me. When you have so many people with firearms, of cours...

Re: Geography game

For Europeans doing N.A. it's easy to get a bad score even with some knowledge because some of the states go together. For instance Maine, New Hampshire, Vermont Etc. are New England but I'd probably mix them up. Georgia and Atlanta (edit I meant Alabama) are in my mind as the 'deep south' and Missi...

I'm a Trump supporter 100% and I don't think he is racist or pretty much any of the things people have been brainwashed into thinking about him. But ofc I'm not American and so I can't vote for him, more or less I would say that 75% of what people think here is 180% the opposite of reality, like the...
