Why can't he post his opinions like you have just done and stop running people out of the forum with his style of comments like:
Col said:
Now just sod off back to your cabin under 30ft of snow.
This comment was wrong, it should have read "Now just sod off back to your cabin under 30ft of snow until you learn not to misquote people"

Col said:
Most religious cult people (like christians)...
Christianity is a religious cult just like any other - whats the problem?

I like that Bri - a "battery of Americans" - like chickens, all being told when to eat, when to do this, do that, what to believe etc etc
see Nikky's reply on this, at least Nikky is able to see the context of it correctly unlike you

Do you really need me to reference the shooting of an unarmed black man by US police the other day?

So in a country of 300 million people, one guy gets shot and you want to bring that up?
What about the 299,999,999 that went on with life?

ah yes, the standard American cop out statement. It saves admitting you got it wrong.

Got what wrong Col?

The fact that you made up a totally fictional statement, indicated that I said it - then chastised me for it.

Fo - we don't need a strategy. The way certain US posters here act, its totally consistent with our perception of the US.

Kal - I do have 2 phones on my desk - the normal one and the mobile, I shall try your idea to see how I get on.:p

Its more the hypocritical Yankee culture and blinkered views, then when you mention it, they get all pissy about it:rolleyes:

Unfortunately we're not all too 'blinkered' to understand that you use these blanket statements to derail a conversation that isn't going in the direction that you'd prefer.

Everybody here understands your opinion on US culture. Everybody here understands you have the right to express it. What's hilarious is your arrogance that you think that everybody wants to hear it for the n millionth time.

It's boring, it's causing ill will, pack it in! :mad:

Daniella - yes its one of great learning and confirmation that most of what we hear on TV and news is sadly true.

Not strictly true actually.

its a tough road we tread, but say it often enough and there's hope even for the USA - its a heavy cross to bear, but I (and Rich) rise to the challenge.
One day you'll be thankful - its ok though we're not looking for reward

It's boring, it's causing ill will, pack it in! :mad:
yes, we all said that about things we didn't like at school, but again we're thankful we listened.

Col, you have to take my word that I was kidding you.

Sorry it read wrong.

Have I ever been uncivilized to you personally?

you mean like Ken? a holier-than-thou-your-opinion-is-not-worth-anything type?

Not even you can be that bad, I did however think I got the backlash of your spat with Rich which happened a few minutes earlier. My weather comments were genuine though.

e.g. you may think it always rains in England (foreigners do) - but statistically, where I live (in Essex) is drier than Morocco, North Africa - where you would imagine its sunny for ever.

No Col,

I do not equate you and Richard; I think you are more apt to joke around and even to admit erring.

Richard has never admitted (to my knowledge) a single error, and every time he is backed into a corner he takes something out of context and posts it as a diversion.

I’m done with that bastard. But it will not effect the way I treat you.

Rich (in his defence) does make some good thought stirring comments.

:eek: I know that Rich would never post that. There was a time with 375 a couple of years ago. . . . . .

But it will not effect the way I treat you
ok, I'll watch out for the misquotes and hammer you when you do it:D ;)

I'm off home now, its 4:30pm. Have fun, have a good evening and don't get snowed in!;)

You sure like to beat a dead horse. Where is this holier than thou thing coming from? And since you're not going to accept my apology for saying your opinion on children was worthless (in light of the fact that you and your miss must have had difficulties in that area), may I ask why can't you give that one a rest unless you want to discuss it some more - ? Why is the children topic so touchy with you? (Remember, you're the one that keeps alluding to it) - :) :)

Several of us have ask Col to stop (or at least slow down) the Amercan insults and he doesn't seem to want want to stop, so I guess it'll all continue...:rolleyes:

Back on the subject of British justice.

Today in the news a teenager has been given just 2 years with a possibility of parole in 18 months for killing a father of 2, because he pleaded guilty to manslaughter.

Where is the justice in that?
