Gocka...a honky ass is the least of it...the bloke stands at about 5 foot nothing, in height...hardly intimidating in anyones language, apart from the odd pigmy dialect...

You make me sound like a leprechaun!
We need to have a talk.
If only I could understand you with that bullshit country Victorian drawl.

5'10" for the benefit of posterity da ti ebam ... and I have dropped bigger piles of shit than you! And that's just your old girlfriends!

Message too short my ass, that's all I want to say.

...Nine people have been shot on the Danforth (Greek-town); Police say suspected shooter dead.
At least eight people have been taken to hospital and a suspected shooter is dead after gunfire erupted on The Danforth Sunday night.

Carlin15...really, do we need to perpetuate this "greek-town" shit...Danforth alone would've been clear enough...I know you may have your quaint little monikers for these places but why do you need to shove it down our throats here as well...those cunts don't even recognise us as part of the human race and yet you're reinforcing this rubbish that affords them credibility and status...have a good think about it over your next 'greek' coffee in your favourite 'greek' taverna in Danforth that's probably operated by some self loathing grkoman motherfucker.

...LOL racial profiling I guess. Must have assumed that your honky ass couldn't be a threat...

The killers, what was there race?

If I recall correctly they were black.

I did have a laugh with my wife when we were recently in transit in Dubai. We are so used to taking out laptops, removing belts, shoes, nipple clamps ... whatever .... that when we were clearing immigration in Dubai, the immigration officer just looked at me as if I was strange due to my concern for potential threats and waved me through without considering anything a problem. I thought I was back in the 90's for a moment. Perhaps they don't have to worry about terrorists there.

LOL racial profiling I guess. Must have assumed that your honky ass couldn't be a threat.

I'm just white enough that I don't seem to get bothered while traveling.

I wish I could say the same for our good friend Vicsinad, who was almost arrested for being a terrorist in a coffee shop LMAO. I'll let him tell the story, but a boy is it a good one.

I came across this recent story about the murder of a child here in the USA, and naturally it infuriated me. This kind of thing happens often in the USA, so I wanted to ask the rest of you who live in Australia or other places, if this kind of sick senseless killing happens where you live?

The reason it bother me so much is because it makes absolutely no sense. Go ahead steal the god damn car, why, why shoot a six year old? There was 3 of them, not one of the three didn't think it was sick and senseless to shoot a six year old to death for no reason? It's hard to understand how, in such a progressive, wealthy, and, free country that such brainless, cold, and frankly evil people can exist. The 3 maggots, are also teens, what life have they lived that they can be so cold at such a young age. Is this really an American phenomenon or does this type of thing happen everywhere?

The US is so worried about terrorists, meanwhile its producing mindless violent thugs who are committing murder for the sake of it.

The Texas–Indian wars were a series of 19th-century conflicts between settlers in Texas and the Southern Plains Indians. These conflicts began when the first wave of European-American settlers moved into Spanish Texas. They continued through Texas's time as part of Mexico, when more Europeans and Anglo-Americans arrived, to the subsequent declaration of independence by the Republic of Texas. The conflicts did not end until thirty years after Texas joined the United States.

Although several Indian tribes occupied territory in the area, the preeminent nation was the Comanche, known as the "Lords of the Plains." Their territory, the Comancheria, was the most powerful entity and persistently hostile to the Spanish, the Mexicans, and finally, the Texans. These conflicts lasted from 1820, just before Mexico gained independence from Spain, until 1875, when the last free band of Plains Indians, the Comanches led by Quahadi warrior Quanah Parker, surrendered and moved to the Fort Sill reservation in Oklahoma.

Outcome of the wars: Complete Extinction of many tribes in Texas, including the Karankawan, Akokisa and Bidui.

He was in a church dance club. He played on the school football team. He was a high-achieving student. And yet he allegedly opened fire on classmates, killing 10 people.

Officials say there were few red flags from Dimitrios Pagourtzis, the 17-year-old facing capital murder charges over Friday's Santa Fe High School shooting in Texas.
