Well if you're judging that I despise terrorists and that I think Jocks that have to pretend to be Irish are fuckwits, then well done - you've got me pegged.
I assume you're talking about a military site? In which case, yes I probably have, although I don't remember it.

I'd say there's a difference between having an opinion on it and hundreds of thousands of inbred Rangers and Celtic twats singing the "Soldier's Song" and "Could ya go a Chicken Supper Bobby Sands?" or the "Sash"
Oh well, silly me - all the Iraqis that have perished since 2003 much have just er ...spontaneously combusted, nothing at all to do with US/UK soldiers invading or anything.
If you think that the media would ever show the shocking scenes that would be produced in the aftermath of coalition bombs Tobyjug, I'm afraid you are naive.
The majority of deaths over in Iraq are caused by US/UK forces and yet day after day we see insurgent bombings on the news and all the violence caused by them alone....hmm, wonder why no focus on coalition 'activity' or come to think of it, no focus on the fact that there wouldn't be any insurgency violence without us being there in the first place? No media spin there at all....

That deaths are caused isn't an issue, the point was that the army doesn't recruit anyone with mental health issues, any hint of history of it puts you in front of a doctor for a long detailed interview on it if you're lucky, if not the army just waves goodbye.X-77 said:Oh well, silly me - all the Iraqis that have perished since 2003 much have just er ...spontaneously combusted, nothing at all to do with US/UK soldiers invading or anything.

Now if you want to go off on a rant about iraq i don't really care, have fun, i'm just trying to clear up this point.

Thousands turned up last time and caused major disruption, thousands will turn up this time- exclusion zone or not.tobyjug said:
prove that the coalition has killed more people?Bigdavalad said:
Apart from it being blindingly obvious that US and UK capability would have caused far more destruction and therefore deaths, the Iraq Ministry of Health revealed as much not long ago:

I wouldn't say it was blindingly obvious - there's plenty of big suicide bombs that kill a hell of a lot of people - I seem to remember one killing 60 odd people up round Baghdad somewhere. Do you think that the Coalition could just wipe 60 innocent people out in a oner and get away with it? Also, there's one big word in that article - MAY. Troops MAY be responsible for 60%, not are responsible.
No, it's a shithole and it stinks.

Again, pretty much all of the first page is the lying Daily Mirror story, which certain members of the TA will hopefully serve time for.
edit - just looked at the rest of the pages, most of them are all the same story to.

Then you should stop derailing this thread, it's gone from interesting and moderatly new material to you almost soley dragging it into the morass of "iraq bad" which we've heard a thousand and one times if you can't say anything on topic then don't say anythingX-77 said:who said that was 'the point'?

Why not ask those that attend about the police rather than getting your opinions from the Daily Express?
oh get lost, I was responding to tobyjug who was trying to get away with saying that most protests are attended by 'two men and a dog' apart from 'pro-fox hunting' ones - typical you wouldn't moan about that though.

tobyjug you say the anti-war protest was an exception. Well the the recent demo in Scotland against the G8 was attended by 200-300,000 people and was the biggest demo in Scottish history. Or was this another exception?
What about the huge demonstration against the G8 a few years back in Birmingham, or another huge demo against Longbridge shutting down a few years back?
The 10,000s who demonstrated at the May Day demonstrations?
What about the 10,000s that came out in support of the FBU?
I can give you other examples, but are all these exceptions? Along with an anti-war movement, which was the biggest in British history by far.
I will add though that there is absolutlely no chance of the Dsei demo being like the Poll Tax and have some sympathy with Taxamo's comments.

It was not the much hyped million though was it?
Although you have come up with few exceptions, as yet there has not been one shred of evidence for any more than a minority of the 48 million adults giving a monkeys fuck about protesting or protestors. Protest and demonstration very much a minority activity.

but surely an activity engaged in by less than half the population is a minority activity?
