What a strange world it's becoming ...
Tragic, but I do sometimes think we are living in a weird, parallel universe, where what goes on is so far beyond our understanding it almost cannot compute..A 17-year-old boy has admitted the manslaughter of his 12-year-old sister who was shot in the head at a house in Greater Manchester. The girl was shot at her home in Gorton, on 30 April.
Kasha Peniston admitted shooting Kamilah with an illegal .38 snub-nosed revolver kept by their mother at the family home in Wembley Road.
The girl's mother, Natasha, 33, has previously pleaded guilty to possession of the gun and possession of ammunition.
What sort of names are Kasha & Kamilah ????
Not advocating mass-murder as an entirely positive experience, of course, but it had its moments.

If you shoot someone to death, then you should do 40 years minimum.

Also worth considering is that the majority of criminological research suggests that criminals don't make rational calculations with regard to their conduct in the way that you are both implying.CAPSLOCK wrote:Then you've nowt to lose by killing somebody with itTANGODANCER wrote:When they pass a law saying that possession of any firearm carries an automatic, no-remission, ten years inside, somebody might just start taking notice.

And given that only 4% of crime in Britain ever reaches sentencing, it's no wonder that most just assume that they won't be caught.

Which makes a damn good case of giving control back to parents, teachers and the police IMO.mummywhycantieatcrayons wrote:Also worth considering is that the majority of criminological research suggests that criminals don't make rational calculations with regard to their conduct in the way that you are both implying.CAPSLOCK wrote:Then you've nowt to lose by killing somebody with itTANGODANCER wrote:When they pass a law saying that possession of any firearm carries an automatic, no-remission, ten years inside, somebody might just start taking notice.

Aye, apparently you can get an apprenticeship in it these days, and just in case you aren't successful they're planning to give you thirty five quids worth of free entry to cinemas etc, just to tide you over. Apparently, six of these tickets can be exchanged for a .22 Beretta and ten for a .45 Magnum. Easy innit. Why work?Worthy4England wrote:wow - I'm going to give up my tax paying day job and take up Bank Robbery instead...TANGODANCER wrote:Which makes a damn good case of giving control back to parents, teachers and the police IMO.mummywhycantieatcrayons wrote:Also worth considering is that the majority of criminological research suggests that criminals don't make rational calculations with regard to their conduct in the way that you are both implying.CAPSLOCK wrote:Then you've nowt to lose by killing somebody with itTANGODANCER wrote:When they pass a law saying that possession of any firearm carries an automatic, no-remission, ten years inside, somebody might just start taking notice.

I saw something on the telly yesterday where this young lad had dronwed at a public swimming pool. The pool attendents hadn't noticed him at the bottom of the pool and dragged the covers over leaving him there for half an hour.
His mother is rightly furious, saying that they wre more interested in getting away rather than checking that the pool was empty.
She was there of course. I mean she wasn't watching her son - why would she? She's gots texts to send an magazines to read.
Why look after you own kids when you can blame someone else when the croak?

I'm not asking you to 'think outside the box' I just wish you'd have a rummage around in it once in a while.

That was tragic, but I couldn't help but be seething at the mother for her comments, as if those coppers didn't feel bad enough, imagine how bad they feel now? I'm still waiting for her to apologise to the guys, but I guess we'll wait and seecoffeymagic wrote:I saw something on the telly yesterday where this young lad had dronwed at a public swimming pool.

Yes, don't get me wrong being a scrote doesn't mean it's ok for your kids to die it's just that these people don't seem to admit they they could have been in the wrong.
I'm including the McCann's here.
You have to watch your kids like f ucking hawks especially near water and in foreign countries. If you don't you know what could happen but I see it all the time at the swimming parents who treat that hour as an hour off.
If anything you have to be even more vigilant.
Anyway - what's this got to do with Nolan being shit?

Bluntly put Coffey, but all too often these days the blame culture kicks in first. Bit like the case a while ago where an old lady died in a flat and no one had been near her for a week. She had seven daughters or somesuch but they all wanted to blame the social services for neglect.coffeymagic wrote:I saw something on the telly yesterday where this young lad had dronwed at a public swimming pool.

Another case involved the Reebok carpark when a kid (who shouldn't have been on there in the first place) crashed his off-road bike into a concrete bollard and died. The mother wanted to sue the club for not fencing off the carpark. Sign of the times; blame and compensation are always first considerations these days. Always someone else's fault.
