In the last 48 hours two terrorists attacks have been attempted on British soil. First in London the foiled attacked was averted by a sharp eyed ambulance technitian outside a night club in central London. And now at 3.15pm today another attack happened. I think its time people in Britain started to do something about this sending messages to their MP's and the Prime Minister that it's time for these Muslims to be repatriated back to the countries where they came from.
These Muslims have no loyalty to this country and hate everything and about this country it's time was done. We are a tolerant nation but our tolerance is starting to ware a little thin. Those Muslims who say that Islam is about peace well I see no evidence of that and those who refuse to help with police in the search of those who did are just as guilty. It's time you looked at you priorities and decided where loyalties lie and whether you should live here or not. if you have no loyalty then leave.

The way I've been hearing it is that prisons are getting worse and worse. I don't know the statistics, but I know a lot that go to prison return in one way or another. And I don't want to go into the race and gender issue of this, but that in itself is not cool.

I prefer magazines because they are both informative and very entertaining.

Was Chris Benoit set up to look like a killer?
Was the text messeages a call for help?
Are people who hang themselves often found in the sitting position?
Why were there posts on web sites stating Nancy was dead many hours before and now the news reports a similar posting on the WWE site.

Has anyone stopped to think that maybe this did not happen they way the news and police are reporting it?

I was not a fan of Chris Benoit's nor am I a wrestling fan, but for some reason I have a gut feeling that Chris did not do this. I truly think something else happened.

Do any of you feel the same way?

So all these tards saying "moore's visit to cuba was staged" as if moore hadn't thought of that already and made sure that he was visiting a regular hospital. If I can think about all this junk I'm thinking moore and his attorneys already thought of it and then some!! You have to think of this to prevent powerful interest groups from suing you for slander. And also from challenging your facts. Each fact and story must be verified for accuracy. This is how a good solid reporter presents his story. If the fact or story cannot be verified then you do NOT report it!! That is what's known as fiction. Obviously when you put something on film and present it as the truth, you better damn well make sure it is true. So when someone challenges Michael Moore's documantary, ask them how do they know and ask them for their proof? Michael Moore can show you his proof, can these other people show you theirs? I'll bet money that they cant. An oppinion is like an ******* everybody has one

With the current attempted bombings in mind, I feel more and more that the exremists have declared war on us yet the government is trying to ignore that fact and offer branches of peace, revolve the room to screw the lightbulb in etc. If we formally declare war on Islamic EXTREMISTS (i.e. not Islam as a whole) we can then start to take a military position on suspects who become enemy combatants and thus aren't subject to the same rights as normal prisoners. While we are in so much danger, it is unfortunate but we should be able to take serious action against suspects without worrying about human rights etc (outside of the Geneva Convention). I know Muslims don't like being profiled but if it was ginger people doing this then I think it would be fair that all ginger people got stopped and searched more as it is simply a better allocation of resources - theres no point targetting British pensioners trying to get on a flight etc. There should be no more Mr Nice Guy - I want to be safe

I can't help feeling sorry for Bush. His legacy has gone down the trash can. His failed economic policies have lost millions of jobs. His healthcare and social security policies have been a nightmare. He refused and failed to send an appropriate amount of troops into Afghanistan to apprehend Osama Ben Ladin and Al- Quida, instead, getting us stuck in Iraq. He is arguably the most unpopular American political figure of all time, in the eyes of the world. He has turned nearly every country against us, and raised Anti American sediment around the world to alarmingly high levels. He can't even convince Senators and Congressmen in his own party to vote on legislation he wants passed (Immigration bill). His polls have dropped to a 26% approval rating, and Democrats and Republicans alike have lost complete support for him. Bush’s administration will go down in history as a complete failure. You can’t help but feel sorry for the idiot.
