Shootings in US schools

[Rich]

No but they did learn English more or less to accomidate us.

Well I do so hate to put poo in your apple pie again but it was the British who spread the English language around the world. Are your history books really worse than I thought?

With all due respect Ricky - SJ does seem to have a bit more mastery of all things intellectual, so I think we need to use his spelling as the norm.

Not in this instance, he's using the CELTIC spelling of the word which is not commonly used in the UK

You hitting the bottle again?

Well it beats hitting an American, doesn't it?

Rich if you are going to argue with The Doc please don't just lash out but read his posts and pick on something substantial such as

It has everything to do with gun ownership. You not only don't want to attack the USA with its powerful army, but even if you do, you SURELY don't want to try to occupy a country where everyone behind every tree could probably pick off a dozen or so of your soldiers even after the army is no longer around.

This scenario didn't stop GWB and Bliar invading Iraq.
Plus I seem to remember the Gestapo tackling this type of problem by killing dozen's of civilians for every German, it kinda slows a man down if he knows his family will be executed. Not everybody fights as gentlemanly as the British.

Sorry, I stand corrected on both points

And with that, the 'cooler is all yours - It's home time as Col would say

Which is why you have been tricked out of your guns and run out of your commonwealth interests back to the island...

(Sorry, I didn't mean all of that it... But it did feel good for a moment... )

Good night and don't you attack any poor defenceless deer with your car on the way home

That was your 14,000th post

Actually it's now well over 20,000, but then I stopped counting years ago

But I don't think they'd understand, I mean how can anyone cite Darfur as an argument for keeping guns, totally oblivious to the fact that it's the plethora of weapons there that are causing the genocide in the first place?

Well with the revised system then.

By the way.

Is there one out of the 20,000 that could be remembered for its intuitiveness or even accuracy?

All of them Jen, but then I'm not one for blowing my own trumpet, unlike the new kid on the block

I would think J would be glad to see two picking on someone new for a change -

I would much prefer them to pick on me personally than to lump all Americans into some kind of inferior being.

It's just a couple (sometimes 3 ) odd Brits venting... Not much substance really - Write 'em off and move - You must admint the remainder of our peers across the pond are quite pleasant to us inspite of our faults -

Or even a billion like China, now, what's your point?

I made it home Just making sure you and the crew were still being somewhat civil... You seem like a pleasant chap when you aren't yanking our chain... What is that sets you off? What can I do to change your opinion of us yanks?

I see maths isn't one of your strong points either, do they teach anything in American schools other than blind patriotism?
