    Income tax evasion and failure to pay road tax. Plus the cannibalism and a bit of kidnapping, but mainly the tax stuff.

    No. But if a gun had been used instead of a chainsaw then clearly this would be Leatherface exercising his 5th amendment rights to shoot anyone he wants (as opposed to a constitutional right not to be shot) provided Letherface can prove he is not an immigrant from certain countries that have not previously carried out terrorist acts in the US.

    2nd amendment. 5th is the right to avoid self-incrimination.
    Mixing the two up could be... messy.

    I don't know,but were these amendment things written in the days of the Indians when they knocked on the door and asked for your scalp?
    Has anyone told them the Indians were pretty much wiped out and are guns necessary today?
    This idea that having guns in the house for self protection is cobblers.By the time someone has entered your house you haven't got time to look for your gun....you've had it!

    Is there a more poetic headline than reading how the £3.1bn aircraft carrier that is supposed to be a symbol of a post-Britain Britain has sprung a leak?

    You would think the vote was 80:20 the way these people go on. Is it at all likely that the 52% in favour all had a similar vision for what Exit actually means. Only needs 5% of Brexit supporters need to not like the deal that arises from these mishandled negotiations for the majority to disappear.

    Special mention goes to wiseandwonderful for saying they have already boycotted all EU products while requiring electricity that is provided by an EU-run company in order to post a comment on the Mail's website saying they have boycotted all EU products.

    Sticking with the psychosis of Mail readers, one of these is the responses to the story of Nigel Farage saying he's scared to walk down the street for fear of having to take responsibility for ****ing up this country and then buggering off when he got what he said he always wanted, and the other set of comments are in response to an interview with Brendan Cox.

    Guess which is which?

    Why do moronic people always seem to want to highlight their idiocy?

  17. Anna Soubry MP, one of the key targets for the vile threatening abuse which emanated from the Fail articles has called out the beloved Leiderene for clearly failing to identify the loathesome media rag in her lukewarm condemnation. That’s not going to improve unity in the Tory party, methinks!!

    American political debate in a nutshell

    If Obama suggested something: "How dare the president attempt to influence an independent agency!"
    When Trump demands something: "How dare you question the president!"

    For some reason that popped into my mind hearing Ajit Pai claiming that killing net neutrality means the FCC is free from government interference - something this tweet strongly argues otherwise...
