BledZabbath Posted September 29, 2017 Share Posted September 29, 2017 My Black Sabbath Ten Year War Box Set has been pushed back yet another month, so I had to cancel it and ask for a refund. This made me really unhappy as I was looking forward to getting this. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ZepHead315 Posted December 15, 2017 Share Posted December 15, 2017 Just got spoiled a large portion of the new Star Wars movie from (of all things) a post about Net Neutrality on Reddit. I really should just stay off the internet until I see it (which will be later tonight). Still, as Frank Costanza said: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

chillumpuffer Posted December 17, 2017 Share Posted December 17, 2017 Due to a vile "grass" who told lies about me to the police years ago, the realisation that I will never be able to visit chums in the U.S. has hit home. I have a criminal record, and and as such will not be granted a Visa. I would love to do the wine and golf on the West Coast and golf in Florida. Nope not gonna happen.

Now that grass is legal they are going to hold some ancient dope charge against you? That is insane. The world is seriously fucked up. Maybe you can go to Mexico or Canada and then sneak across the border? I hear it is pretty easy to do...so easy that millions do it every year.

I can apply for an ESTA but that won't stop me from being refused. I have been to New York 17 years ago but I lied on my visa waiver form on the plane. Now we have to complete a form which states that I have never been convicted of a drug possession or having used drugs. I could again lie but from what I have read they can and do check and if they catch you it's adios and the next plane back. Now another way is to apply for a VISA but that means a trip to the US Embassy and an interview. It is seriously bollocks. From what I have read it's entirely up to the bloke on the desk on the day. I can't risk it. What makes it more depressing is that we let anyone in here - legally or not As an aside. I can't even go to Australia either. Same reason. Murderers, Paedophiles, Conservatives no problem. Busted for a couple grams of smoke - NO sorry.

I like Sean's idea of Canada... Although, this means we can just come over and visit you. On a purely selfish note, you could make dinner for us.

chillumpuffer Posted December 18, 2017 Share Posted December 18, 2017 Of course you are most welcome to have dinner courtesy of the CP's. I can even take Walt out on the course. You will have to brave the sub arctic conditions though - even in June ! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Walter Posted February 15, 2018 Share Posted February 15, 2018 (edited) When I first heard it was a high school in Florida my heart sank. Then I found out it was a south Florida high school and now 17 are dead. It’s not if but when it’s gonna happen here and it’s someone I know and love. Fucking disgusting. RIP to the innocent deceased. Edited February 15, 2018 by Walter Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In the first 43 days of 2018 America experienced: 18 school shootings 29 mass shootings 1,796 total gun deaths 3,099 total injuries Not to mention all who have been traumatized by being affected either through close proximity or through a relationship with the deceased/injured.

In the first 43 days of 2018 America experienced: 18 school shootings 29 mass shootings 1,796 total gun deaths 3,099 total injuries This 43 day rundown fits your narrative but completely omits the fact there's no universally accepted definition of a mass shooting. The FBI threshold was four, until Barrack Hussein Obama changed it to three in 2013. Some leftist orgs characterize any shooting involving more than two people as a mass shooting. Some consider any shooting on school property to be a school shooting, to include single fatality suicides in the parking lot. Anyway, if we could see this same level of social obsessiveness from you and the like-minded with regard to the out of wedlock birth rate and high school graduation rates we may actually progress as a nation.

While I agree that some of these school shootings should not be classed as school shootings, the quote from Sarah Tofte from this article, which is listed below, needs to be given a lot of weight when deciding on this definition. “every time a gun is discharged on school grounds it shatters the sense of safety for students, parents and the community." Regardless of what the definition of school shooting is........ 1 school shooting is 1 too many!!!! Until the American society and its politicians accept this, then nothing will change in America!!!
