Read my post, political shirts should never be worn in school no matter who it is for. Only idiot parents allow their children to wear that garbage to school.

Robberies, burglaries and rape, are almost accepted in Britain, if you look at the stats.

Something is said for fear of being shot to death.


But then again, 9 times more kids are killed by medical malpractice, than kids that die by guns.
Another thread, here.
I might have been discussed, but is there a LINK?
If there isnt a link, then i ask you to produce one. That is, if there is ONE

No no no, ....... Liberals spew tolerance until they get what they wanted. Then they spew 0 tolerance for everyone else. I hope that helps you understand the reality of how that idea works!

Took me about 5 mins to find this:

The most violent country in Europe: Britain is also worse than South Africa and U.S. | Mail Online

I found the assertion hard to believe too; I wouldn't be surprised if property/nuisance crime was higher in the UK, but this stat did surprise me.

That is a very biased source and it is considered a tabloid.

the point being, is that it is their freedom of speech to do so. if not then have all students wear uniforms or have the teachers shut their pieholes.

I used to live in England, I know what the Daily Mail is.

I found the source that the other poster was probably referring to, though. Do you have anything that refutes it?
