Rational Response

A US film has recently been released which shows Islam in a less than favourable light, I'm not sure there's too much choice in how it can be shown so lets take a look at how it adherents are aiming to dispel these untruths and slanderous lies.

UK, London - US & Israeli flags burnt outside US Embassy.
Netherlands, Amsterdam - US Consulate & two schools closed due to planned protests.
Libya, Tripoli - US Ambassador & 3 US citizens killed.
Tunisia - American school burnt.
Egypt, Cairo - Tear gas used on protesters attempting to storm US Embassy.
Lebanon, Tripoli - KFC restaurant burnt to ground.
Iraq, Baghdad - Protesters chanting "Death to America"
Yemen, Sanaa - Protesters US Embassy stormed by protesters & set alight.
Afghanistan, Jalalabad - Afghans gather to chant "Death to America"
Kashmir - Over fifteen thousand protesters gather in a dozen locations to call Obama a terrorist.

Well, you cant argue with logic like that.

Pussycat, Pussycat, I love You !

After arriving back from the Rugby (Wales v Japan) last night I sat through the ITV news. Amongst the "news" was a very brief story on the sad deaths of two British Servicemen in Afghanistan, no more than a minute or two at the most. This was followed by a story about the shocking revelation that BBC bosses may well have chosen the name for Blue Peter's cat rather than go with the results of a phone in. The story ran for what seemed like hours, yet I suspect it was no more than five minutes, and had analysis of the scandal in a quality not yet applied to either the Iraq or Afghan crisis.

I'm more than aware that some of this could be classed as one-upmanship by ITV over the BBC but what right minded journalist doesn't see the problems inherent within the system if the naming of a fucking moggie warrants more mainstream news time than the deaths of British Soldiers abroad.

I was going to end this post with a witty one liner based upon the term Pussy-footing around, but I just could not bring myself to do it. What a pussy I am. Shit.

There's No Business Like Showbusiness


According to recent reports, Chris Langham (pictured) pleaded not-guilty to child porn charges because he didn't want to be labelled a paedophile. Don't download kiddie porn then you fucking retard. Or, if you must download it, don't store it on your PC, use a flash drive or burn it to disc for God's sake . The name "Gary Glitter" not ringing any alarm bells for you Chris ?

Also, and I don't know when this started to happen, but every time I see a picture of Mr Langham (I'm calling him that because it sounds more sinister, what with Chris not sounding like a kiddie fiddler really) he looks more and more like a child molester. I'm not sure whether this is subliminal on the media's part, or just a sign of my ever weakening resolve, but either way he's looking more and more like a baby rapist to me.

Maybe it's those Gestapo specs ?
