    I see what you did there.

    Fail to see the point though. Pointless pun or deeper meaning?
    Few are born with it, even fewer know what to do with it.

    Yup, throwing stones through windows is exactly like the Taliban killing people.

    The poorest man may in his cottage bid defiance to all the forces of the Crown. It may be frail; its roof may shake; the wind may blow through it; the storm may enter; the rain may enter; but the King of England cannot enter – all his force dares not cross the threshold of the ruined tenement! - William Pitt the Elder

    Strawman much?

    The underlying mentality, the notion that those who disagree should be forced to conform, is the same.
    Still maintain that crying on the pitch should warrant a 3 match ban

    I feel the need to strut about a bit here.

    Firstly; it's no strawman to point out the alleged attacks at the hospital were trivial compared to what the Taliban does.

    Secondly, the underlying notion is radically different in that this hospital incident never occurred.

    The language has entirely to many Js in it

    Kill it with fire
    There, but for the grace of God, goes John Bradford

    My aim, then, was to whip the rebels, to humble their pride, to follow them to their inmost recesses, and make them fear and dread us. Fear is the beginning of wisdom.

    I am tired and sick of war. Its glory is all moonshine. It is only those who have neither fired a shot nor heard the shrieks and groans of the wounded who cry aloud for blood, for vengeance, for desolation.

    HoreTore knows that there are other countrymen frequenting this site. Tore just forstalled our accusations of crying "Wolf, Wolf".

    I'd say that's probably quite true, I wouldn't be surprised at all if these people worked as farmers or taxi drivers.

    Fits perfectly with my prejudices/sterotyping....

    All right, I've been 'd.

    The chief doctor there is in the papers today too, and says it was simply a joke, an inside joke at the hospital he for some reason told a reporter(when asked why, he responded with "no comment").




    That's it, I'm going to hide in the corner for a few days now...

    Well, you should be commended for your honesty. I doubt anyone here would have caught you on that one due to the language barrier and the fact that the story didn't break into the wider English language press.
