  1. Surely you see a difference between lamping a few wild rabbits off a man's land without permission, to mopping up with catapults 100 roosting pheasants that a man has bought, fed & reared!
  2. It's complicated no doubt but personally I believe assisted suicide should be enabled for those with a terminal condition and only at a specific stage in their suffering. I watched my own mother suffer before she eventually died. And although I can't prove it, I believe that there was an element of 'passive euthanasia' in her final moments. If so then I'm glad that someone was able to relieve her pain. It sounds like your own ma was a real fighter with all those ailments, but I'm guessing that her suffering was eased and her life prolonged by the wonders of modern medicine? Medicine no
  3. I think the issue we have is less that someone should be allowed to end their life before it becomes intolerable due to illness, and more with the mechanics of their requiring assistance. I'm 100% for assisting very sick people end their suffering and would do it for my loved ones as I hope they'd do it for me. Like you I think the overwhelming majority of people would agree. We just need to get the politicians to get their fingers out their arses and get on with delivering what the people want..., and need.
  4. Especially a trained killer with mental health problems. He shouldn't have had access to a gun full stop.
  5. Should be treated like any other thieves. To me there's a difference between poaching a bird or two for the pot and taking 100.
  6. Just quoting from the latest on the BBC; "that Mr Santiago had turned up at an FBI office in his hometown of Anchorage, Alaska, in November, behaving erratically and was turned over to local police, who took him to a medical facility for a mental evaluation. "We looked at his contacts, we did our inter-agency checks and everything and, at that point, we closed our assessment," he added, saying that Mr Santiago had "clearly" stated that he did not intend to harm anyone. An unnamed official quoted by AP news agency said that Mr Santiago told FBI agents back then that the US government was con
  7. Looks like an ex-serviceman who'd been suffering mental illness. "He reportedly said the government was controlling his mind and made him watch jihadist videos".
  8. They may well have done..., and they may not. All I said is that the darts they threw back then wouldn't see them close to the top boys nowadays. Even the likes of Taylor & Barney struggle to win titles now and they haven't got worse.., the competition's just got better.
  9. Hearn has done a great job changing the image of the sport but he couldn't have made it the success it is without the improvements made by the quality of play we see now. I think Taylor takes huge credit for that as he set the bar. The final saw averages of 107 (MVG) & 104 (GA) with 44 180's hit! The high scoring and the lethal doubling makes it a much more exciting game to watch. The truth is that the darts the likes of Bristow, Wilson & Lowe threw back in the day might not get them through qualifying for the PDC worlds.
  10. If his family gave a toss about him and what he'd done I doubt those medals would have wound up getting left on an abandoned farm. Sell them and give the money to a veterans charity.
  11. f***ing despicable piece. Fair enough there was criminal activity but keeping dogs locked up, keeping lamping equipment or having meat in your freezer isn't against the law. c**ts are only out to tarnish and portray law abiding dog work as being evil and blur the lines of what is and isn't okay. Wa*nkers.
  12. Ribs all the way. I'd feed wings to the dog.
  13. Van Barneveld got knocked out by Van Gerwen in the semis after throwing the best darts of his life.
  14. Good luck to Gary Anderson tonight, I reckon he'll need it. Van Gerwen is in unbelievable form this season, and has taken darts to a new level. His 114.05 average last night was something to behold. If both players can play without the nerves taking over it could be the best game ever by quite some distance. ?
  15. Apparently it's called 'tidying up' or some such thing. I constantly find that things have been moved from where I'd left them conveniently on floor, and where I knew where to find them, and been hidden in a cupboard or a drawer or some other stupid place.
  16. Bottom line is you've got to play the game (no pun intended) if you're going to get your Nat King Cole. Keep the young lady and her mum happy, 'pass Go' and get your reward.., or play at being 'mates' with her old man? Oh okay then.., as long as I can be the 'wee dog' ?
  17. Haven't seen it but the trailer looks rubbish. If it's true to life then it'll be about 40 Youtube videos before you'll see a two minute scrap which will end without a winner and with everyone shouting 'shake hands'.
  18. Without even blinking, never mind getting both sides if the story, the red tops all described it as 'shocking'. They should get on Google and look up 'hypocrisy', f****n rats.
  19. I'd want the fcuker to travel through time for 1200 nicker?
  20. Exactly, it is the only way. People who 'want' to stop but 'can't', simply lack the mental fortitude to battle periodic and diminishing cravings for a few weeks. Pretty pathetic if you ask me.
  21. I think someone put a speedball in her coffee, didn't see her even pause for breath ? She made a few good points however.
  22. You lot won't need to worry about pensions. By the time you retire euthanasia will be legal..., and sounds like it'll be compulsory for some of you.?
