Note that almost all those killed are young men, and (according their death notices in the Arab media) activists in Jihadi movements.

@martin Let’s analyse this statement, Jondo reckoned “most” of those killed prior to yesterday the 40+ were Hamas terrorists, you say “almost all”. The evidence Jondo produced was an Israeli newspaper with the…[Read more]

But it’s relatively easy to stop, especially with the military might of Israel, you don’t shot into crowds of people on their own territory. If you’re defending yourself you could wait until people are actually at, in, or…[Read more]

You wouldn’t know the difference between rabbit and chicken in many meals.

@jimmy Being exceptionally picky and limited in what I eat I can tell exactly what I am eating. The only way to not taste mystery meat is to spice it and I don’t eat spices.

(I dislike deer and can’t stand game).

Are people < 30ish just as resilient or have we created a world of special snowflakes?

I would say they are probably more resilient and less deluded than their baby boomers parents, who grew up at a time where every day was better than the next, and they had nothing to do with it, and to this day still seem to take everything for granted.

you should always cook onions right down, at least until golden (20 mins minimum). Undercooked onions are a cardinal sin in any form of cooking!

@jam Not all curries cook onions till brown but quite a few do. It forms the base thickness of the sauce. Some tips: absolutely make sure you fry off any dry spices before adding any liquid. But burning…[Read more]

Yes.

Should we be buying migrants? not so much.

It has never been the police’s job to find evidence of guilt, and always to be objective…[Read more]

If 4 slowed down whilst 1-3 were failing I would lean towards a wiring failure. If it stayed at full power then I would lean towards the speed control module.

Most speed control modules have a power input, a power output and a control input. If you bridge the power…[Read more]

I dont have many feelings anyway so thats why its quite hard to offend me and likely why im not empathising.

I didnt say that, and i also said if things are genuinely offensive then people are right to be offended. Im saying people are taking offence at things they are creating a meaning for to be offended at. You have no argument.

The fact I referenced the incident in South Africa was just because it was in the news. In general it seems people are quite easily offended.

It’s a calculated statement that presents him as a tough guy who says it like it is to his supporters.
