THIS IS NOT FUCKING CANADA. This country was founded on a lot of things and those things were written down. None of them included socialised fucking medicine or any of a number of other bullshit liberal fucktarded crap that has come down the pike. According to the principles this country was founde...

The reasons you don't find any references to religious tolerance in the holy books is because it's not there. Religious tolerance is a secular idea. You can tell because it's pragmatic and somewhat sensible. Unlike all that prehistoric horseshit in those old, simplistic, hate-filled pamphlets you re...

We've lost our way in the Afghan War that much is obvious. We started it for good reasons but that was a long time ago. Everyone deplores needless civilian casualties* and there have clearly been many that our govenments have been covering up. The Pakistan angle is very worrying. Destabilising a str...

You could make the same statement concerning any other vigilante, criminal or terrorist group. I thought they (and their ilk) were a bunch of ineffective criminal loonies long before this show came on the scene.

Not to defend whaling, but the Japs are hunting mainly minke whales, which are not endangered. There's plenty of evidence that they also hunt endangered species illegally. Also: 1.

And when are they going to go and use these aggressive tactics on the inuits that kill whales by the hundreds? They are in canoes, should be real easy for them to thwart those evil humans of the north! That would be because they're not opposed to subsistence whaling, just that factory-ship slaughte...

These guys are terrorists, plain and simple. The ends don't justify the means. And drama queens, I wouldn't put that tag on most other terrorists but the mindset is certainly there.

I'm tired of hearing the same revisionist bullshit here in the UK as well. Yes the Labour government was spending a lot, but it was affordable at pre-2007 debt levels and revenues and it brought tangible social benefits.

BP isn't "British Petroleum" any more it's just "BP". Both BP and BT (British Telecom) changed their names to just the abbreviation after they were privatised in the 80s. They're publicly owned private corporations and no more or less "British" than any other, no matter...

Vice taxes work? We have preposterous levels of duty on cigarettes and booze in the UK and I'm pretty certain they haven't affected demand. They just shift people to the least-taxed option.

If it isn't an act designed to force a political change then it isn't terrorism in my opinion it's just random violence. Maybe tis guy thought he'd change the tax laws through this action? Perhaps he should have followed the tried and true method of throwing tea into the harbour instead.

In the UK if you're seen even touching a phone that isn't secured in a hands-free setup you can be fined up to £1000 ($1,624.70).
