Prehaps you should move to England then you could have a say on how they run things :o


"Prehaps" you should consider the purpose of a discussion forum might be to discuss opinions. :roll: If you're going to ******* jump on everything I say, maybe you should just go away yourself, huh?


Oh come on... The word filter is the only thing separating me from complete insanity.

just killing time waiting for you to chime in big guy........... :lol:

Today, a school spokesman said she was suspended over the allegations - but also for "ongoing inquiries centred around other practical issues".

Maybe he didn't know you had sheep. Just trying to give him the benefit of the doubt. Sometimes you have to spell out. Type slow so he has time to absorb the meaning. Osmosis is your friend.

More? Ok,

For more than two years, Sydney Davis’ house has been under siege from stone-throwing youths. And more than two hours into the latest attack on his family home, the police had yet to respond.

So after a particularly large missile landed in his kitchen, the 65-year-old grabbed a plank of wood and ran towards the gang to scare them away. But his desperate act came just as the police finally arrived on the scene - where they promptly arrested him for possession of an offensive weapon.

He now faces up to six months in prison.

Yesterday the retired builder, who has two young sons, said he had been left reeling by the decision to prosecute him.

Mr Davis - who claims to have had objects thrown at his house on 700 separate occasions, and his windows smashed five times in eight months - said: ‘Something needs to be done to stop these kids.

‘They are out there every night. One of my neighbours even had a seven-month-old in their kitchen when a brick came through the window. It showered glass across the baby’s face. When these kids see the police they are off through the alleyways. The police have got no chance of catching them.’

Mr Davis’ 42-year-old wife Pauline dialed 999 when their home came under attack yet again last week, but two and a half hours later officers had failed to arrive.

He recalled: ‘My wife called the police at 6 o’clock. But [the youths] just kept on throwing stones. I left the back door open to stop them smashing it. I have two kids and if one of those stones hit them it could have caused some really nasty damage.’

And with his sons Peter, seven, and five-year-old Jimmy cowering behind a sofa, he decided enough was enough.

Grabbing a piece of wood from his garden, he chased the youths at the precise moment police officers arrived outside his home in Swindon, Wiltshire. Mr Davis was handcuffed and led away to the cells, where he was later charged.

…Yesterday a spokesman confirmed that no youths were arrested in relation to the incident.

In reality he will get a slp on the wrists and told not to do it again. The prisons are so full they wont lock him up, and a plank is not much of a weapon. I got a 150 quid fine when i got busted for having two knifes n my car and that was it, so its not a big deal, just media sensationalising.

Now as for the Gangs they are turning out to be the ethnic kind that seem to wander into the country to suck the welfare out of it. The jews, somalis, ethiopians, Jamacians and the list goes on are invading England. They are sucking so much out of the Economy the police forces have been forced to close stations and reduce officers and it is only getting worse :o :o All the immigrants are killing the country by creating more welfare scroungers and the gangs creating terror, and then with heading towards a recession crime is only going to get worse.

They closed our local cop shop last year and do not even have a person staffing it now so the closest police stations are over 30 miles in any direction, so you kinda have a wait as them ford Focus's they drive are not that fast and the twisty country roads dont help in response time :o :o :o

But back to the issue at hand, you would get arrested in the Metro for doing the same thing, as some little liberal whiney arse parent who swears thier kids are as god as gold would insist on you being charged :o

I wonder how the media would report that???
Really i am your worst Nightmare, for i walk the night and the cover of darkness belongs to me :D

The word filter would be so much more fun if it substituted funny words and phrases, rather than little star thingies. For example, on a site I frequent, everyone was talking about grilling so much that it was deemed necessary to substitute things like "veiny phallus" for "brat," and other things that I probably can't say here. I think at one point someone changed "Heineken" to read "The crappy Dutch beer that tastes like piss." Something like that could be really fun here, especially if it were to certain people's detriment.
