    Dunblane denial

    Compared to it, no, in addition to it yes. Salt in the wound.

    This made me smile..

    That was based on an Israeli press release, when the UN asked for the supporting data and report they refused to hand any over. But perhaps I'm mistaken and you can find this mythical report and post a link

    On things like casualty figures they've historically been quite accurate. As in they publish a list of names that independent people have gone back and checked to see they were real people and that they died. And what's the alternative? The IDF treat the press as a weapon of war. They have an...

    Yes, that shows the danger politicians face. Widdiecomes could be the danger politicians face, the elderly face or people who own large numbers of porcelain figurines. Only an idiot would be jumping to conclusions without more info.

    From them yes, from the general public no.

    Dunblane denial

    Outrage over it seems excessive. Scorn and derision is appropriate. What sort of idiot weighs in on gun control in the UK and doesn't know about Dunblane?

    Broke away? We split the country in two in a ham fisted way that led to a million deaths and 15 million displaced.

    I really didn't. But I didn't go into it because I don't know the details on if they're lumping Pakistan and India together. That sort of detail is important but I'm not spending that much time digging into it

    You're probably talking about Muslims, because you're always talking about Muslims. But the data said Indian heritage rather than Pakistani which does imply Hindu more than Muslim. Because reality is complicated.

    Interesting anecdote. I don't think anyone disagrees that it doesn't ever happen, more the rate at which it happens is vastly overstated. I think the research shows that the rate it happens is decreasing despite the greater access to gender detection tools. Presumably it's as the communities...

    Its because in a lot of Muslim cultures you give the boy a first name of Mohammed effectively as a title, and then use the middle name as the day to day name. So it gets used very heavily as a first name by some groups. The other interesting trend is that generally the UKs names of choice have...

    I read the article, it didn't say that. You're failing to understand what's written down yet again. You didn't do well in English at school did you.

    Dude, where's my car?

    No it doesn't but you do need to think about it. How many roadside drugs tests were run in 2022 compared to 2025. What proportion of tests were positive? Road side drugs testing has only fairly recently been widely rolled out. So there's no way to know if Drug driving is increasing or if we're...
