sayonara, it is odd that your father Monty continues to live on.

I’m guessing some druggies probably robbed ya, ain’t England full of junkies?
in any case it almost happened to me once, but the would be burglar ran off after seeing me in my nightly lingerie.. 🙁

Sure or not??? I think Military Aviation is more poplular than commercial one.How can that be?

if it makes you feel better. Rumor has it that Key Publishing will be releasing a new magazine called “Stewerdess, an ‘inside’ look” 😉

Yes it’s gone, which is due to the fact that Key Publishing will no longer publish Air Forces Monthly magazine and will focus solely on commercial aviation.

What’s wrong with Bulgaria? I own a flat there… As for Russia, I’d probably move there in a heart beat, as long as it was Moscow.

eew you like Moscow? I always thought that was one of the worst cities in Russia, them and cities in the Russian Far East.. very depressing, crime ridden, and bleak. But there’s lots of places I like in Russia, mostly in part due to it’s vast land mass and variety of regions.. most of my faves are along the Volga area like Chuvashia, Komi, and Bashkortostan. (which happen to be ethnic republics). Kamchatka can be nice but the people there are very xenophobic and I often get confused for a native of the region. It’s also pretty **** expensive. Altai Krai is really really nice, not much crime either, and great scenery! and oddly Yakutia, the coldest region, or at least its capitol Yakutsk, is oddly well off and pretty modern. But much around Moscow and St Petersburg is a pit.

The Officer Down Memorial page lists 17,810 deaths of Policemen in service in the USA. This year there are 131 so far with 46 of those being killed by gunfire.

The better you arm the Police, the better armed the criminals will be. no-one knows the truth about what happened yesterday yet. It is an absolute tragedy, but would being armed have given them a better chance? If they were shot as they walked through the door it is very doubtful.

The British Police should remain unarmed except in exceptional circumstances. Arming every beat Bobby will just make the criminal element even more aggressive. If we have people as well trained as those guarding the Royal Family accidentally discharging their weapons accidentally in a Royal Palace, what could we expect of ordinary Bobbies?

Arming all Police Officers would be a retrograde step in my opinion. If a criminal expects the Police to be armed it will encourage them to have an attitude where they consider it prudent to shoot the Police Officer as they have nothing to lose.

more like, better arm the police and introduce better gun control laws. the latter would be an unpopular proposition in the US.

they should be armed. nothing is perfect and in scenarios like above, there will always be times where the innocent are victims.. but don’t let a few isolated instances dictate common sense.

Can we join too!!!

sure! as long as you don’t bring that Kidman chick 😡 😡
