I am planning on staying to the interstates for this run, the fun run, yeah I don't really care where I end up, Beth will be with me and we are going to enjoy the trip. It's an adventure

Just be sure to take a packet of beef jerky.

Not sure if that's legal, Richard. ;)

'Twas a bit of a sad event'but there's bugger all to be done about crazy. No matter what you do they still seem to find a way to get their 15 minutes (or 17 hours). :(

And unfortunately, there will always be soft targets available to these cowards.

I'd like to see one of these wankers try that caper in the front bar of any pub and survive for more than their 15 minutes.

The older I get the more I find people as a general rule suck

It comes with most of the worlds population being uneducated.

It is a bad thing the idiot terrorist killed and injured a few innocents. I did see some video of the idiot terrorist walking around inside the place. If a video camera can see a idiot terrorist why in the world did they not take him out with a sniper? One less idiot terrorist and the entire thing would be over. One bullet is less than a dollar and everyone can go back to work. The clean up crew scrapes up the idiot terrorist and the world is a better place with one fewer idiot terrorist. It is just a shame the idiot terrorist managed to take a few good people with him.

How you doing Rick? It looks like things are finally on the up. ;)

We've got our fingers and toes crossed for you.

Jeff, it will be hard for you to walk into the office with yer toes crossed.

There's probably a lot of people thinking the same Glen, I was one at one point when I first saw that same footage.

Political correctness bull5hit probably, but he poor cops are buggered whatever way they choose to go. He's a martyr if they shoot him and a hero for the cause if they don't.

The unconfirmed word is that the fella who was killed did so by forcing the nutters hand. The woman who was killed was shielding a pregnant woman. Both heroes in my mind. As soon as there was gun fire, in went the SWAT - all over for you crazy man.

I always have to admire the SWAT team. To rush into a building with a idiot terrorist with a loaded gun pointed back must take some real guts. It is easy on TV when they have blanks. Doing it in real life and death situations takes a brave man.

Too bloody right it does. Balls of steel.

The copper who took shotgun pellets to the face spoke about probably being back at work tomorrow when leaving hospital earlier today.

ministry of silly walks? :D

Naaa, they will just think you hit the beer a little early. :p

I've just been out to dinner with them this evening. We may all have silly walks in the morning - I'll blend in. :D

Good Morning.

Morning Richard

Wow, sleeping in today?

I think the news media could do a lot to stop terrorism in the way they report the events. Instead of showing all the drama and terror, just show the the terrorist getting killed and do not give a name for the terrorist or his cause or if anyone was hurt. Minimize the 15 minutes and any advertising for their cause. Just report that the terrorist was successful only in getting themselves killed.

If some group tries to take credit for the act of terrorism, wipe them out. If a country or government tries to protect them, take them out too.

Almost everyone has heard the story of David and Goliath. But, what is left out is that David also killed every single member of Goliath's family.
