A 10 year old boy weighs a staggering 192kg! What on earth are the parents doing? :shock:

Gun control may seem suddenly more appealing with a few racially-targeting black snipers on the loose.

So many comments suggesting that the snipers were a government plant so that they can introduce martial law and postpone elections and take their guns away - and that the NRA were right about the need for arms to protect against the government :shock:

WTF??? It's not like they live in a country that has experienced multiple corrupt military coups!! :?

The alternative to the conspiracy theories is to confront the reality that the Land of the Free has systematically subjugated, incarcerated and murdered a major part of its population. It's understandable that some of the Dotty Right would prefer madness to facing the truth.

It's a fairly vicious circle.
Every dead body on Mt Everest was once a highly motivated person, so maybe just calm the **** down.

:( so sad! Bastards :evil:

Don't let them win LD - I'm sure the French will scour every corner of Nice so hopefully when you get there it will be as safe as it can be!

And if you feel uncomfortable when you get there you can always just change plan and go somewhere else even if it costs you more - not much of a holiday if you hate where you are.

Hopefully it will be fine and you will have a great holiday - in the warmth!!
