    You have a point. If I

    You have a point. If I'm honest, I've always equated statue/memorial attacks with the Taliban pulling down ancient worship sites. And as my dad and my uncle were in Bomber Command, I'd be seething if their memorial was defaced, despite the utter lunacy and ineffectiveness of the area-bombing campaign. But here, what about this one? :emoticon-0112-wonde

    If the aim is to end a global pandemic, shouldn't socialists be demanding that the vaccine is shared more equitably, rather than demanding repeat jabs in the west?

    If monuments to slave traders are fair game then Mosques should be removed

    And gnomes. They're offensive to the little people in society.

    Here's a question...Does trial by jury actually work?

    I'm just looking around a few forums, and the prospect of getting a dozen people to actually agree on anything seems remote, so it suggests that the decision is actually made by the loudest few, with the others just glad to get out and go home.

    It's open season now for wanton destruction of statues, monuments and property that you particularly find offensive.

    They've opened a hornet's nest now <ok>

    The same rule WILL have to apply to those that are offended by history, no matter what their reasons.

    One rule has to apply for all essentially <ok>

    Last year a man was jailed for 15 years for burning a rainbow flag in America.

    Not necess celery. It was a jury decision. Each case will be different. I think they were guilty, personally I would have acquitted. Brilliant wind up of The Gammon.

    Proof positive of how hypocritical things are nowadays.

    Welcome to Wokeworld.

    You shall comply to warped idiotic ideologies otherwise you will be imprisoned.

    Precisely how Nazi Germany started.
