WILF 46,588 Posted June 19, 2020 Report Share Posted June 19, 2020 (edited) Well, on the subject of paying respects..... I am just back from my local town. A local lad and Guard Detective was shot the other night by a nutcase who wrestled his gun from him and emptied the clip of 15 rounds, hitting the guard 6 times. A terrible, terrible event and you can actually feel the sadness in the air locally. I play football with a lot of these guard lads and I feel for them, I really do. They just drove his coffin through the town in a motorcade and the whole town came out to show respect, a couple of thousand folks of all ages, every single shop keeper were stood in respectful silence as he passed by....it was very moving. This is how traditional little white towns react to terrible events and you feel it’s your duty to join in an honour the man.....and it is. What a difference from the thousands of baying animals that have been so revered by our media, politicians, sports stars and every other useful idiot in the world. This is the stuff they should be reporting. Edited June 19, 2020 by WILF 15 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Fan of his driving and that's about it. I hope Max puts him in his place and retires him. He's got on my tits these last few weeks, f**k his virtue signalling. So you're not a fan of Katie Hopkins, surprised as she's been giving the fuzzy-wuzzys some right stick. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

A lot of the time they end up settling down where their stationed. Thr gaurd here is from just 30 miles from the aera, and knew everyone since child hood. A pure gentleman. That killing was felt across the whole country. RIP Atb j 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
