The man once said, “Will no one rid me of the turbulant *******. ” 
 He said priest, but I think all party politicians are candidates.

The Priest was duly dealt with on the steps of his Church.

Islamic slavery and racism  (This alarming article is another reason why I have no desire to travel to these places! Half the world is still Neanderthal, it seems! Why we are allowing them to come and take up our land and property, I shall never know! Why have we given in so easily and readily? Are we all drugged, or something? Our MPs have taken leave of their senses, that's obvious, for starters! - Stan.)

Do some people deserve to hurt a lot? (This 1.35 min video adequately shows just WHY there is little hope for humanity, on this planet! The mentality of these people is so low, it is tragic - the life-long injuries they sustain, with these childish pranks - not to mention the cost and who pays (us, through our NHS, or as many are in the USA, it will be Obamacare) - they are a drain on society and really should be put down - out of kindness as much as anything. - Stan.)
