Mass shooting at Gay night club in Orlando

Not to sound like a twat but is this not getting a bit hackneyed now, beaming flags onto the London Eye, Brandenburg or wherever? It seems like people focus more on the aesthetics than the meaning. Very Facebook-esque.

I think promoting empathy with the West in the Middle East can be a good thing. It might slowly make those less tolerant come around, although Tev Aviv is already one of the most forward thinking places in the ME I believe. They face a lot of attacks themselves, so to me this was a nice gesture of unity (as well as a big LGBT statement), moreso than London etc doing similar.
 
I'm thinking of that in Belize. Or just living in a van down by the river.
Perk of Belize is they speak English, right?

I could always partner with my buddy if his real estate company takes off. He's already got a place settled down there he's said my wife and I can vacation at in Medellin.

I know they said on the Copa America the other day that you can immigrate to Peru if you deposit $25,000 into a bank there.

Anybody know how the Republic of Ireland would view the immigrant status of a history teacher with a masters and a nurse with a bachelors degree?

You could just teach English to hot young Latinas and love life all over again.

Do it.

Wow $25k? The UK is £2m invested in gilts or other UK securities for two years for a tier one investment visa iirc. Popular with Chinese and Saudi high-rollers.
Reckon a nurse would score highly on an points-based entry system. Us fellow history grads maybe less so!

Nobody wants us. :(

Back in the day Belize used to advertise in The Economist; a $50,000 USD deposit in any bank would get you citizenship and a passport in any name you wanted.

Dang people and their disrespect for the social sciences.

I minored in Political Science and English... I don't guess those would help me out either.
 
HE LIKES TRUMP?!?!?! How'd I miss that?

I think he owes a lot of his career to Trump. Morgan was considered a joke in the UK before he revived his career in the US by going on Trump's Apprentice. Then he obviously fecked up and is back here now writing for the Mail and on a daytime show.

He's the only journo in the UK to have had a sit down interview with Trump for TV as well

As if I needed another reason to not like the guy... lol
 
I like the way @Carolina Red and @Grinner have gone from sarcastically insulting each other's opinions to best buds in the space of 20 odd pages.

Really cute couple.
 
The Cornwall thread has me pondering too

Feck Cornwall, come to Devon mate. Just as beautiful, but 2 things in it's favour. More life in the winter in some places. No Cornish people. LOL!

Cornwall house prices are like London's and they are suffering from so many houses being second homes there, ie local shops shutting.

That's true in some places but not all, the same in some areas of Devon too, but there's a flip side and that is some places have falling house prices because It is so dead in the winter and full of second homes, or because there are no jobs. It's a clusterfeck in places.

Devon is fecked up really. In my village a one bedroom flat goes for £300,000 to £500,000 but 4 miles down the road in Brixham a 5 bedroom house is up for sale for £169,000. Crazy. In Truth you can find affordable houses all over Devon and Cornwall, you just have to look and know the area, best bet, get someone to help you look. I would say people should be quick because Devon and Cornwall are both requesting the local councils and Government put more covenants on purchasing a house here, such as only selling to locals etc.

Back on topic.

Fox News all night saying that Obama is wrong because he won't call the Orlando killer an Radical Islamic Terrorist. Like the label will make it any better or stop future killings. It's insane. Megyn Kelly has been banging on about it all night. Can't wait when Hannity appears tonight or tomorrow. The Cnut.

1) I watched a great series on Netflix last week set in Devonshire.. Broadchurch with David Tennant.

2) Those prices are indeed crazy. My wife and I bought a 2400 square foot house for $153,000 (about £110,000) a few months ago.

3) You have to remember, this is a "news" station that questioned for months the citizenship of a man born to a mother who was an American citizen.
 

As expected. So sad, I just find it funny they tweet so much and yet all the tweets have at most 4 or 5 likes and a couple of retweets. Obviously only members of the church doing that. I thought they would die off after Fred died, obviously not.

Check out the photos of them protesting at Ali's funeral, 12 cops protecting them with a barricade around them as well. How much money do these fools cost the country all the time? It's a feckin joke. I bet, no, I KNOW none of those Police officers wanted that job.

Yeah, I know. I watch Fox far more than I should, but purely from a voyeur point of view. It's car crash news at its very worst.

You watch the "leg chair" on The Five too, I see. :p
 
Who in their right fecking mind needs an M16 for self defense?

Legally bought gun should at least limited to small practical non deadly gun (every gun is deadly i know...), buying a military grade arsenal for self defense?
 
Good job. Let us arm the entire nation with such guns so that we no longer need courts to settle issues.
 
This is heartbreaking
As Omar Mateen swept the interior of Pulse nightclub in Orlando with gunfire, 30-year-old Eddie Justice sought shelter in a bathroom. Somehow, amid the chaos, he found time to text his mother, Mina.

"Mommy I love you. In club they shooting," one message read. About 30 minutes later, he texted: "He's coming. I'm gonna die."

Early Monday, Justice was confirmed to be among the 50 people killed in the worst mass shooting in modern American history, as city officials began releasing the names and ages of victims whose next of kin had been notified.

'.... police found many with blood gaping wounds, some had also been shot. '

Thanks lads, my ticket to hell has been upgraded.

:wenger: You like to come across as the pinnacle of intellect but often let it down with crass and stupid posts like this. This thread has been a disgrace from the start, the talk being directed away from the people who actually died in this atrocity.

I didn't find your joke particularly funny if you can tell and had it been made by anyone else who wasn't in the Caf clique I'm sure they'd have been thread banned or worse.
 

It is

I can't begin to imagine the last few terrifying moments of his life.

Almost impossible without an EU passport, unless you somehow get sponsored by a company first. I don't think either of your professions qualify for the 'elite' ones or whatever those are, I'm afraid.
 
He's an apologist twat who can't go five seconds without trying to dodge a question on the ideological hatred espoused by Islam because it offends his back patting feel good sensibilities.

Stop holding back and tell us what you really think.
