I doubt that you folks in the USA will have heard about this , but a couple of days ago , two young chaps , one age 19 , the other 21 , were killed by a Tube Train in the approach to a large depot , running to escape getting caught for Graffiti spraying .
The media just now interviewed the parents . On television .
One said that her son had told her there was a “legal place to do it” and she believed him .
Another said that he saw a headline in the paper saying “two killed” , he looked at the paper and found that they were referring to two Army Casualties in Iraq and Afghanistan . He very decently compared the two lots of deaths , saying about the Army lads , " You wouldn’t mind that , it has a reason . My son went for no reason "
OK , sad , true , and graffiti costs London Transport over 2 million quid a year to clean up . We have to pay for that , via local taxes .
BUT the story which grabbed far more time was Global Warming . The announcer was obviously on a bonus scheme for mentioning it , she said it so often with that superior sneer on the face like these do-gooders get . I wish they would start off like that in front of me , they’d get a face warming . I have mentioned before that there is a Master Plan to promote this dubious issue , and so far I have been proven correct .
The latest scam is to charge people driving “Gas Guzzling 4x4’s” a large sum of money to park in the road outside their own houses . What this will do to reduce gas guzzling , God only knows . Especially as people are already making the suburbs ugly by removing their fences and greenhouse gas absorbing hedges so as to park in what was a pretty garden , concrete it over , no water draining into the aquifers , all down the sewers instead .
These so called tree huggers cannot think straight for spite . Why do they always talk like they are talking to a child ?
So a non event like losing the local war on 4x4’s is given precedence over two deaths caused by stupidity likely to be repeated .
“And do please email us with your thoughts on this 4x4 gas guzzling .”
We don’t give a shot about two deaths . No , we don’t want to be told how much that costs.
Think about that , if any of you can imagine what it would be like to have to bury a son because of spraying a paint can around and compare that with the non proven silliness , which would you give precedence to ?
We have our values wrong somewhere . Do not think for one minute that this is not going to affect you , I already hear that the Americans are hated because of their global warming habits . Big cars , big polluters . Crap of course , but when you have the government propaganda machines working full out , it will be too late .
Be warned .
