That would be a fairly accurate prognosis, Blue_2.

Please discuss the subject at hand, rather than critiquing one another’s respective powers of rhetoric.

Thank you

I suppose he’s entitled to his opinion.

Good luck to him in finding people who share it.

If the allegations against him are proven in court, Venables will have had his chance – and blown it.

Yes, 27vet.

Because everyone in India wears a turban, don’t they? :rolleyes:

I suppose childish racial sterotypes do have their place, but this isn’t it.

You know, I don’t think Mr B was being entirely serious there.

Everyone knows it was Homer Simpson who killed the dinosaurs. 😎

I certainly wouldn’t disagree with WP840.

I’ve said almost exactly the same in several discussions, in here and elsewhere.

Am I mistaken?

Yes, Kev. In this instance, I’m afraid you clearly are.

Regarding their ages, people can’t have it both ways. They were tried and treated as children, which appears to be what several people, including yourself have advocated.

Please show me where I have advocated anything in this thread, Kev. To the best of my knowledge, I have advocated nothing.

I have, however, pointed out demonstrable facts – such as the age of the two defendants at the time they committed this terrible crime.

Perhaps you’re mistaking me for someone else?

My own view on this I’ve repeated too often. They weren’t children.

You can repeat it as many times as you like, and it will change nothing.

Insisting a thing is so does not make it so.
