It's all a load of Cannonballs in here! This is the virtual Arsenal pub where you can chat about anything except football. Be warned though, like any pub, the content may not always be suitable for everyone.

Personally I don't subscribe to any of the shite written in papers etc. about individuals. I strongly suspect that near to 90% of it is utter garbage designed to sell papers, fuel egos and entertain the masses.
I take things to a more basic and simple level. I value human life above everything. People, both good and bad are human. All of us,no matter what our crimes might be have one that one thing in common. As such I view everyone as being my equal. Nobody on this earth is better than me and nobody worse. Their faults are my faults and I celebrate their triumphs. My humanity is what makes me the person I am. Sure, I'll laugh and joke and be cruel. That's who I am.
My feelings toward this young lady do not reflect her activities in life, they reflect that she is the most precious thing on this earth. She is a human being. Nothing more, nothing less. I wish her a peaceful passing into her next life.
Well put, Spuddy
although....

How do you become a moderator? And when you are one when do you moderate?
This thread has been going on since Tuesday when I've seen others shut down way faster and certain members lambasted for similar comments by the big cheese. Ok he don't help himself by jumping right back in, Wayno.
I reckon I could spare an hour a night to help out. Is this enough? Cos when I get going I'm quite militant.
