Yours is just another form of PC.

It always amused me that the non-conformists all conformed to the non-conformist uniform.

You'll fit in much better!

I don't comform to anything my friend...I am not some jaded subhuman rebel. I have an MA, a wife and daughter and a high paid career. Quite happy where I am and what I've earned. I just don't feel the need to water down my attitude, dilute my thoughts and censor my aggression for the likes of some halfwits on a forum.

London will be back on it's feet in no time, and the best of British to them.

I think someone suggested the TIO forum...perhaps that's more up your alley. As far as halfwits, perhaps you should take a look at yourself. And guess what, a MA doesn't make you superior, nor intelligent.

Listen to you all - all high and mighty, telling me to post elsewhere and calling me a troll....but then turning around and dishing out equal insults and jibes. This whole thing started because I presented you all with some no-bullshit comments and opinions, and you were too weak and PC to accept them. So you whined and cried, and stomped your little feet.

You are the most boring, diluted, bland people I've ever know - I'm ashamed that you are my fellow countrymen and even more ashamed that you were given visas. I'm surprised you havn't put the US to sleep with your pathetic, conformist "with the grain" opinions. The US is slowly falling apart due to censorhip, editing, political correctness and propaganda for society that is timid, malleable and easily led. And you lot all fit quite nicely. Anyway says boo or a cuss word, and you cry.

Ridiculous.

My condolences to the 37 victims.

Well thanks for that, but I dont remember whining, crying or stomping my feet. Actually Im one of the most opinionated people I know but I also have some sense of decorum and timing and prefer not to just incessantly rant when its not required.

We all know that London will be okay, it's the fate of a few individuals that worry many of us.

Excellent and Karma worthy if I didn't have to spread it about more.

You really should read some of the threads in TIO.
