    Everyone is an individual, a big part of the problem is too many people 'pigeonhole' just by predjudice which is how this whole sh*tstorm started with George Floyd. It's far far worse in America and much more overt and they clearly haven't learnt anything as another Black man was shot dead by police yesterday in Atlanta.

    Our country has been one of the better ones in terms of inclusiveness and progress had been made but this has set things back by a long way. A peaceful and dignified protest was perfectly justified until they attacked the police who under political instruction ceded to the demonstrators and then fuelled all week by the MSM yesterday's scenes were totally predictable. I think you're just about right Stainesy, unfortunately there is no easy answer...

    SS Nazi Uniform Shame of Piers Morgan

    SS Nazi Uniform Shame of Piers Morgan
    please log in to view this image



    Piers Morgan, who condemned Justin Trudeau and said he should resign for blacking up his face when he was a student, is pictured here wearing the uniform of the Nazi SS. The SS were the Nazi Party’s military wing – ultra-loyal to Hitler, the members of the Waffen-SS were involved in numerous atrocities. At the post-war Nuremberg Trials the Waffen-SS was judged to be a criminal organisation with direct involvement in numerous war crimes and crimes against humanity. The SS ran the Nazi concentration camps responsible for the killing of millions.

    The picture – obtained exclusively by Guido – was taken at a party in East Sussex where, according to Guido’s source, Piers was goose-stepping around and giving “Heil Hitler” salutes. The wearing of Nazi uniforms in itself is a crime in many countries that were the victims of Nazi occupation…

    Yeah it does seem to falling apart quite quickly, or so it seems from looking in.
    Anarchism always appealed to me......maybe it just won’t work ‘ is if ya being human.
    Shame really

    Goodness, a lot of posts on here during a very sunny Sunday. I'm not even going to try to catch up. Hope you were at least in the garden with a beer or two.

    Yeah but what about the lefties that were 16 pints in.

    what a bunch of Tarquins, wonder what the next cause there will be? Sure it’ll be something new next month as long as an all nighter is included and Involves pisszing on things.

    How vacuous must the lives of some people be that they feel the need to queue for hours outside Primark? I'm trying to feel empathy for these people, I really am, but ridicule and derision keeps getting in the way.

    [Anyway, just killing time until it's my turn at the window... Big Mac, supersize fries and a Connery, please!]
