The US is a safer place..isn't that all that matters?

Desperation.  Simple as that.

The whole idea of turning this protest into a race issue is desperation.  Just like the last election.

Except I don't think it will work this time.  We'll see, but I suspect the apethetic blacks that stayed home last Friday and who didn't join all the black I saw there will not do so this Friday.

That's right Tigga...and then another one the following Friday.

This will become bigger and bigger...PARTICULARLY as a result of the rascist bullshit the Brownites are trying to pull. 

Your boy Brown has awakened the poltical activism of the people on this island.

His days are numbered.

Perhaps Thaao and LF might want to stop going on about how the police commissioner stated that these guys were no danger (parroting Dr. Brown).  Turns out he (Dr. Brown) lied to us...again:


From Friday:

http://www.theroyalgazette.com/siftology.royalgazette/Article/article.jsp?articleId=7d966a73003003e&sectionId=60

To today:

http://www.royalgazette.com/siftology.royalgazette/Article/article.jsp?articleId=7d9684e30030000&sectionId=60

"So far the Commissioner and his experts in the Bermuda Police Service have not had from the Bermuda Government, who brought the Uighurs here and without any advance notice to the Police, the information they need to make a proper assessment."

"Based on the limited information available, the overall threat assessment was deemed to be ‘high’. This was conveyed to the Governor and Minister Burch on Friday afternoon. Simultaneously, contact was made with our security agency partners and a more comprehensive threat assessment was commenced. This process is not yet complete."

That was her...lol Sad huh?

I notice that the PLP website is still yammering on about "Why can't Bermuda be a Leader?"...which is funny, because on this very issue we are actually in third place...behind Albania and Palau....not the winner.

WOOT!

We are on the cutting edge baby.  3rd place, behind two third world countries...really something to be proud of.

Idiots.

That was the reaction when LF showed up.  Her little counter protest involved her and ....well...her.

LOL

The speech could not have made it more clear that this had nothing to do with the 4 individuals.  It was all about the Premier.

Thaao has no credibility spinning lies.

Sometimes it is a writing style thing...of course when you get told that "you think you can do whatever you want on the roads and feel that laws don't apply to you" (not the exact phrase..but similar) because that is the natural progression of the logic when I "broke the law" but yet when that same person admits to a speeding ticket somehow the same logic doesn't apply.  Oh yes...they got a deserving ticket, but the poster certainly didn't think she can do whatever she wants and doesn't feel that the laws don't apply to her.  She accepted her punishment because that is the consequence of breaking the law.

When I responded that I agreed 100% but that in my case there was no ticket...only a road raging lunatic that felt she should try and run me down....silence.
9  Zapnin? / Road Rage / Re: Another road death. on: June 09, 2009, 12:58:06 PM
I never professed my innocence...in fact I fully admitted my offense.  Why do you, CO and everyone else keep trying to twist what I wrote into me attempting to prove myself blameless?

The point of my initial thread was NOT an attempt to say I was right in any way shape or form.  It was designed to ask a very simple question "WHY" did the woman feel that my actions warrented an incident of road rage which endangered her freedom and my life?  What I got back was a number of fingers pointing directly at me as being the poster boy for the ills on Bermuda's roads.  No real insight...just "yea she was wrong...but YOU......" 

So, when you come out with a funny story about your father is now tending veer over and to scare bike riders and how the worst consequence is that he might scratch the paint on the car...it is like deja vu to June 2008 or as recent as yesterday.  Very hood ornament-like.

I capice....I am probably the most conservative driver out there. 

See...you say two wrongs don't make a right.  I committed the first offense in my little incident....the second wrong was committed by the woman driving the car.  Two wrongs don't make a right.  Her wrong (the second one) is good for a chuckle though I suppose...or perhaps a wee finger waggle before launching into the guy who she almost hit about how he needs to "buck up".
10  Zapnin? / Road Rage / Re: Another road death. on: June 09, 2009, 12:23:49 PM
LOL - knew that would get you onboard! Tongue

Dude - I think you are taking things a little too personally. From what I'm seeing, others, such as CO, are in fact largely agreeing with you. The lady (or anyone like her) who aim their vehicles at others are in the wrong as well. The point they are trying to make is that "you" also were in the wrong and thus have to own your own "wrongship" and whatever knock on effects it might cause. Two wrongs do not make a right so to speak.

You just seem to have a difficult time getting your bike around that.

Here we go again with another lecture.

Smokes...when your dad is nudging over to scare people on bikes what will be the net result if he misjudges and kills someone?  MORE death on the road. 

Incredibly you even suggest that the worst part about him doing this is that he might chip his paint.

Carry on with the lecturing and jokes about making bike riders into hood ornaments ala CO or perhaps even actually nudge someone off the road ala Hare Buddah and brag.

Yup...I am the problem clearly.

"CO - I think you Aced it with that quote..... Wink

I beg to differ.

CO is great with the advice (especially on how there should be mutual respect on the roads) but I suspect she isn't the saint on the road that she makes herself out to be.

I don't claim to be perfect and the original post proves that, but I find it suprising that so much is made of my *bad* driving (based on this one incident) and only lip service is paid to the person with all the road rage...the woman who decided to aim her car at me. 

People shouldn't aim their cars at anyone on purpose.  If you think they should, or have the right to if a bike is microscopically on the wrong side of the road (while stationary and trying to avoid someone baring down on them), then you are part of the problem and shouldn't be lecturing anyone.

The Brits RESCUED the TCI from one of their own...at the bequest of the belongers.

NOW they want to cry about colonialism?

lol

Morons, the lot of 'em.
13  Zapnin? / Politics / Re: SOS! Call the Coast Guard!! on: May 26, 2009, 04:06:10 PM
The US Coast Guard is currently in the middle of LOSING its own War on Drugs.

Why do they need to come here?

Did you read the editorial of today's RG?  I think the solution is out there...it is just too radical for some.

Wink

"I was in the coast guard".

"Very nice sweetie...what branch did your husband serve in?"

Come on Smokes...the coast guard?  Pease.
15  Zapnin? / General Discussion / Re: Happy BDA day! on: May 25, 2009, 08:50:08 AM
YAY.

400 years of inhabitation and we have devolved into a mirror image of American societal decay.

WTG Bermuda.

Praise the Lord...and pass the ammunition.
