Why Has Life Become So Cheap In The Uk?

[youngmafbog]

This has to be one of the worst joke sentences I have ever seen. Except it is not funny.

15 years for murder with an axe and samurai sword .

Absolute savage should never see the light of day.

AOG ‘All down to multiracism/multiculturalism then Zacs?‘

I’ve no idea. Any facts?

It was you who mentioned his colour, which says more about you than it could ever about me.

[Zacs-Master]

Oh, we don’t need to be told anything about you and your views, AOG. Rest assured on that.

/// I’ve no idea. Any facts? ///

I thought that was what you were referring to when you typed this.

/// With a growth in population comes a concentration of people in certain areas creating tensions and pressures leading to violent events. ///

The facts are plain to see i.e. Pakistani child grooming gangs and black on black killings in certain parts of the capital.

[Zacs-Master]

And you think that that accounts for ALL cases?

Why are certain posters allowed to derail a thread, by personal attacks on me, yet they seem to miss the eyes of the moderators?

Dont make racist, bigoted or xenophobic comments if you don’t want to receive what you perceive to be insults.

I am sorry. Until now I had missed your post at 2253. In answer I would agree with you regarding what you repeated in that post but disagree with the rest of your post@ 1354 i.e.

"Stabbings have happened for millennia" Of course but not in the swathe we are seeing over a short period and by the most part the Metropolis. I acknowledge it is happening elsewhere to a lesser degree
and
"Life is no cheaper than at other points throughout history"
As I suggested earlier. If you talk about lives lost in industry through ignorance or accident then I believe there is no comparison to be made with today's premeditated bloodbath on the streets.
The difference IMO . One is accidental. The other deliberate.

[Zacs-Master]

Yes, I saw you make that point, Retro. I decided not to continue my discourse with you at that point as it seemed to have drifted into semantics.

[youngmafbog]

which when translated means you thought you were loosing the argument?

[retrocop]

Fair enough.

Don't you mean, stop entering popular threads, which happen to be about anyone who happens not to be white and English?

Especially if they have been reported on by the Daily Mail.

[Zacs-Master]

Same thing in your case, AOG.

YMB, life is either cheap or it isn’t. You can’t put conditions on it according to the circumstances.

[Dodger666]

They should never have abolished capital punishement IMO.

I'm not saying execute everybody who kills but some murderers don't deserve to kept alive at tax payers expense.

life is cheap..sadly.. Whilst I do not agree with death penalty, as living with it can be as good, sometimes I wonder
