    The problem is, we’re dealing here with not a particularly emotionally (or otherwise) intelligent man.

    But is your son claiming he would run into a school building unarmed to tackle a psychopath spraying bullets with an AR-15 semi-automatic rifle?

    I still dont get it.

    My point was that its was easy for Trump to preach about what he would have done after the fact from a safe location hundreds of miles away.

    I'm thousands of miles away in England days later but i'll say yes, i'd have gone in armed only with a rubber-band and a packet of Smarties and taken him down.

    Do i sound like a blowhard pillock too now?

    We can only speculate
    I have always considered myself a man to have a go at anything yet **** my pants in the woods too many times when a deer has jumped out in front of me. When fear strikes it cripples everyone

    All we have is action replays

    I blame the film Jaws as even now that ****er creeps up on me when I am swimming in my river. It’s bitter freshwater and winter yet at any minute I could be chopped in half by a giant trout

    So, with Corbyn having taken a sensible and pragmatic position on a post-Brexit Customs Union, we have a Government - in thrall to Jake and his band of loonies - heading recklessly towards a hard Brexit, and an Opposition (with almost certainly majority support in the House of Commons and very probably in the country as a whole) advocating a much softer version. Well played Jezza.

    No, hes as much of a coward as I am but I'm sure there are some parents who would if it was there kids in the school. We really don't know how people will react to situations like that, look at those guys on the train in France who rush at the guy with the semi-automatic rifle unarmed. ts not fair to judge people negatively just because you don't like them.

    UK: Muslim migrant who vowed in mosque to carry out vehicular jihad massacre and knife rampage is spared jail
    Feb 25, 2018 2:48 pm By Robert Spencer 18 Comments
    He was just “frustrated,” you see, and as a result, Judge Pringle told him, “you began to express to Mr Malik that you had been patient for a long time and started to talk about carrying out a violent attack. Maybe with a knife, maybe with a car that you would drive into a crowd, and concentrating on white people. Mr Malik said that you had sworn in a mosque that you would do that.”
    Judge Pringle admonished him: “You do need some assistance and some change if you are going to establish yourself as a lawful citizen of this country in due course.” And he gave him “a community order for 18 months to include a rehabilitation activity requirement for 20 days and participation in the Resolve programme. He must also abide by a daily curfew at his home address between 7pm and 7am and pay a victim surcharge.”

    Is all that going to disabuse Sayadi of his jihadist sentiments? They won’t even be addressed. To discuss them would be “Islamophobic.” And so the next time Sayadi becomes “frustrated,” watch out.
    “Man who vowed to ‘drive a car into a crowd of white people’ spared jail,” by Will Walker, Oxford Mail, February 23, 2018:

    should we be allowing people like this to remain in the country
    should returning jihadists actually be allowed to return

    Is there a matching one for collectors ie the Remainer's joke. Something along the lines of "Before we discuss anything I want you to know that I don't really know what I want. But I'll know it when I see it."
