Welcome to OOF
so about 70p is pure tax??who could afford to run a tank
the news would be interesting if someone drove a tank through the gates of downing street and into number 10 through the wall wouldnt it
The law states you can give under eighteens a drink(it actually from 5 years of age )so what the problem with selling to somebody who may or may not give some away.the laws the law personal judgement should not come into itQuoteQuoteQuoteQuoteQuoteI know that knife crime is a very serious issue and I fully condone whatever measures are necessary to curb this type of crime BUT....My daughter has just moved in to a new flat. She went to her local Sainsbury's today with her boyfriend to buy some kitchen bits and pieces - first flat she needed everything - including a cheese knife.
At the checkout the girl asked my daughter for ID (for the knife) which she produced (she's 23). The checkout girl also then asked her boyfriend for ID (he's 25) but he didn't have any. They refused to sell the knife to my daughter because in their opinion she may have been buying it for her boyfriend - presumably to use maliciously - I would have thought the conveyor full of other kitchen utensils would have been a bit of a clue as to their real intentions.
Now well up for an argument she protested to the manager to no avail and she left the shop empty handed and an hour of shopping time wasted. The managers parting comment was that if Sainburys sold her the knife and her boyfriend was under age she could sue them!!!!
I can't wait to waste a couple of hours tomorrow doing the biggest shop I can, loading up the converyor then walking away when my teenage son can't produce appropriate ID - which I demand they ask for - because I've put some lagers on the counter. I might even do it more than once just to really p*ss them off.
Check out girls are not the moral guardians of the general public......The lady in question simply has to satisfy herself that the person buying the knife is 18 years or over......It is not for them to make moral judgements.......
Exactly Opti!
It's common sense really Lizzie.......for example......a 50 year old man buys some alcohol with his 17 year old daughter present...........however....the girl on the till thinks the man may offer the girl a little tipple ...so refuses to serve the man.......NONE OF THEIR FU*KING BUSINESS......
Delightful way of putting it. Humm how about their job for starters? Think thats their business? Yes it is.
Nope wrong again......It is insulting to suggest to a customer......I will not serve you alcohol because you look like the type of person who MAY give it to your underage children.......If that's not a moral judgement then I don't know what is.....
I do demolition for a living,when I/we pull steel framed buildings down, the gust of wind is the most dangerous part because it picks up anything that been left lying around and sends it flying like a rocket through the airQuotehttp://wtcdemolition.com/ * please watch the video..
I watched bit of that and the "narrator" says "watch the ejections of material form the side of the tower keeping pace with the collapsing floors. Perhaps you can think of a natural cause, I can't".
My response to the narrator? That's because you're thick and/or suffering from cognitive dissonance.
Last night I watched an interview with a fire fighter who was trapped in the collapse. One of the most telling remarks he made was that the collapsing floors above caused hurricane like winds as the air was compressed and ejected outwards.
Like I said, natural causes.
Sorry it doesn't support the demolition theory.
Mr and mrs spoonQuoteDepends who you talk toQuoteIt's the American government that is questionable, not the people. Of course Bush had a hand in 9/11.
The main priorities for many CIA agents was to obtain footage from any cctv cameras that had an outside view along the last stretch flight path of the 'plane' that hit the Pentagon ? They knew which 'plane' it was etc, so what use would this be ?
And as for the announcment that the passport of one of the terrorists had been found in the rubble.
It took a while for me to pay any attention to these conspiracy theory nutters, but there are far too many theories that sound more probable than the ones the U.S governments official announcments would have us believe.
That's the thing...its so unbelievable that an american government would do such a thing its a PERFECT cover.
They know the masses would never believe it....they don't...so they have gotten away with it,just like they knew they would.
Lets face it 60 years ago if someone said ££were gonna walk on the moon"" they would have been laughed at for being a complete idiot,never happen...impossible.
Only it has happened and it is possible...just like the impossible government cover up which is 911.
