  1. LMFAO When an author is too meticulous about his style, you may presume that his mind is frivolous and his content flimsy. Lucius Annaeus Seneca
  2. But he made us in his likeness. Why would he invent a defect that wasn't already there? When an author is too meticulous about his style, you may presume that his mind is frivolous and his content flimsy. Lucius Annaeus Seneca
  3. http://uk.news.yahoo.com/rtrs/20070828/tuk-uk-britain-carnival-fa6b408_2.html Two shootings and Police didn't even say how many people were stabbed describing it only as 'a small number of people'. Pathethic, what a waste of money and police resources. When an author is too meticulous about his style, you may presume that his mind is frivolous and his content flimsy. Lucius Annaeus Seneca
  4. I agree with you about the potential danger of the BNP. It wasn't you who proposed them as a street gang. When an author is too meticulous about his style, you may presume that his mind is frivolous and his content flimsy. Lucius Annaeus Seneca
  5. So having watched this... http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dgwfVJIoBNM&mode=related&search= I was wondering what your experiences of gangs in the military is and wether you think it will come back to bite America in the bum.

  6. 1st Vid: Interesting, I agree that social alienation and lack of a father figure raise the likelyhood of attraction to gang membership. Along with a lack of respect for oneself and others. 2nd Vid: Full auto 3 Vid: Like to see do that and get caught in the lower Falls.

  7. http://uk.news.yahoo.com/rtrs/20070824/tts-uk-afghan-britain-667c1db_2.html This sucks RIP When an author is too meticulous about his style, you may presume that his mind is frivolous and his content flimsy. Lucius Annaeus Seneca
  8. The Cremation of care looks like one seriously fucked up pagan ritual. So much for GWB being a Christian. When an author is too meticulous about his style, you may presume that his mind is frivolous and his content flimsy. Lucius Annaeus Seneca
  9. Here's a video report. Blues, Dave What a woman. Lucky guy. When an author is too meticulous about his style, you may presume that his mind is frivolous and his content flimsy. Lucius Annaeus Seneca
  10. She doesn't look very happy. Good luck to them both. When an author is too meticulous about his style, you may presume that his mind is frivolous and his content flimsy. Lucius Annaeus Seneca
  11. Its a good place to live but the economy has slid a bit and things aren't as good in the republic as they were. As for NI what we're now seeing is a bit of a fight between the Paramilitarys and the street gangs which are worse in areas such as the Ardoyne, Ballymurphy and Shankill. See below for a better idea. This was an attempted hijacking at gunpoint on the Falls road in Belfast a few weeks ago by a street gang called the Ballymurphy rat pack. Some local 'Boys' interveaned luckly for the Spide hijacker his scumbag mates were around or he'd most likely got drilled. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4_alPnTgao8 The problem...

  12. In the Republic of Ireland there is a massive problem with gangs in Limerick and Dublin this has been made worse by the arrival of massive numbers of eastern europeans (100,000 in Dublin alone) the gangs fight for control of the drugs trade. Outside of these two cities its not to bad. A strong sense of community and a wider influence of the church definately along with a rise in prosperity with the Celtic tiger economy seem to have kept a lid on the problem. However, the problem is getting worse and I belive as the economy suffers and the people start moving further from home to find work the problem will increase. In Northern Ireland the gang problem was kept in tight check by the Paramilitarys on both sides of the community for decades. People who would have been drawn towards gang membership generally were drawn into paramilitary groups. Now however with the troubles generally over and the weapons supposedly being put beyond use the paramilitarys are not what they once were. Youth crime while not the same in general as it is in the rest of the Uk is on the rise. In poorer communities suicide amoungest the young is also the highest of anywhere in Europe.

  13. i'd like to see our prison system move closer to the Sweedish model which has one of the lowest reoffending rates in the world rather the the US's where people are locked up in ever growing numbers and the prison unions are now so strong the influence politics. I belive the aim of prison should be not only to punish but ALSO to rehabilitate. When an author is too meticulous about his style, you may presume that his mind is frivolous and his content flimsy. Lucius Annaeus Seneca
  14. I don't think thats just a view from 7000 miles away, i'd say it is a view that is widly held here in the Uk as well. As for how acurate it is? I think it varies on a case by case basis but from my window its pretty acurate. When an author is too meticulous about his style, you may presume that his mind is frivolous and his content flimsy. Lucius Annaeus Seneca
  15. I agree with you Richards although I'd replace heavy handed with firm handed. When an author is too meticulous about his style, you may presume that his mind is frivolous and his content flimsy. Lucius Annaeus Seneca
  16. I took your comment as a bit of a slam against gun control. Is that what you meant? Not entirely. I don't think that guns should be as easy to buy as frying pans but I do feel that the process of purchasing a firearm for legal use in this country is bording on being overly rigorous. Also I'd like to see the return of legal handguns. I don't feel that the country is yet at the point where concealed carry should be permitted outside of the forces or Police.

  17. ... with members that identify with the Nazi Party. True. I'm no appologist for the BNP, however it would be misleading (and dangerous) to make out that they are a street gang. Alot of their support is from working class families disenchanted with the lack of middle right political parties in the part of the spectrum that the Conservative party once held. To say that all their voters are Nazi's would simply be incorrect. When an author is too meticulous about his style, you may presume that his mind is frivolous and his content flimsy. Lucius Annaeus Seneca
  18. Thats because many Brits experience of firearms is limited to watching Lethal Weapon. I grew up with and around firearms have used them all my life and continue to do so on a regular basis.

  19. The BNP is a political party and the Skinhead movement may be big in the US but hasn't been in the UK since the 70's also not all skinheads are racists. Far right nationalist gangs are not as prevelant over here as you seem to think. When an author is too meticulous about his style, you may presume that his mind is frivolous and his content flimsy. Lucius Annaeus Seneca
  20. Combine that with the troubling existance of extreme far right, pro national gangs in the UK, and his argument self destroys. Pro national gangs??? You've got to be joking. When an author is too meticulous about his style, you may presume that his mind is frivolous and his content flimsy. Lucius Annaeus Seneca
  21. Not just that would work but in conjunction with promoting community and a sense of civic pride and ownership just might. When an author is too meticulous about his style, you may presume that his mind is frivolous and his content flimsy. Lucius Annaeus Seneca
  22. Guns are very easy to get illegally. Getting a legal one is a real task. When an author is too meticulous about his style, you may presume that his mind is frivolous and his content flimsy. Lucius Annaeus Seneca
  23. Once again, beware of the British National Party ... And attitudes like that perpetuate the problem. the belife that to be patriotic and to have a national identity equates with being either a facist or a Nazi. When an author is too meticulous about his style, you may presume that his mind is frivolous and his content flimsy. Lucius Annaeus Seneca
  24. And thats what make it attractive to UK youths who have no national identity of their own but feel disposesed and appart from thier society. They are looking to belong and are drawn to a sub culture that they can easily identify with. If they had a more positive UK identity that they could identify with then maybe they wouldn't be so attracted to the concept of US Gangsta sub culture. I argue that it is filling a vacuum.

  25. Speak for yourself mate. For me, the level of commitment was greater when I did my PhD. Army bollocks was much easier. I agree also med school and working in a busy A&E day and night for years takes more commmitment as well.
