Nuts or very brave?

I'd say brave. She sounds like she was fully aware of what was going on and made judgements as she went along. It doesn't sound like she rushed in without thinking about what she was doing.

We can count on the Brownies to be good in a crisis it seems.

Seems pretty crazy - it's a very interesting account, but difficult to know what her motivation for talking to them like that, unless it was some kind of shock...

I think she said elsewhere that she was trying to delay them effectively, she was concerned they may attack more people.

She wasn't to know that they were only interested in the soldier.

Also: The image shows him holding a meat cleaver.

I don't know the difference between a meat cleaver and a machete, I suspect a lot of people don't.

I'm not really sure what your point is anyway DFP? Let's give everyone guns?

(I didn't see the discussion in the memes thread).

Can I recall my previous argument from the memes thread about normal kitchen knives being way more dangerous than guns? If the attackers had a functioning gun on them instead of knives, I can pretty much guarantee they would not have sucessfully killed the target.

You can recall it all you want. Still doesnt mean it isnt nonsense.

"I can pretty much guarantee..." .
How can I respond to this without being sarcastic? Do you actually think through what you post before you post it?

blown out of precaution

Lying fucking bitch !

Lying fucking bitch !

Very much this, I hope this follows her around forever...

Nuts or very brave?

she was getting a coach to Helstone in Cornwall from Victoria... clearly NUTS !

...or very brave

what getting the coach ? very patient that's for sure.

Very much this, I hope this follows her around forever...

Her poor parents... if my kids turn out like that, I'll beat them senseless myself !

do you not think though that at that age, her opinions will be very much Mummy and Daddy's very own anyway?

She only apologies for the tweet and not for hitting him. She only conditionally offers an apology to him if she caused him any "damage".

She still seems to think that because only her mirror hit him it's just one of those things, and a quick glace in the rear view before leaving is suffice.

Reason she didn't apologise for driving and not stopping is because her lawyer will have told he not to. If this goes to court it'll hamper her chances of getting off.

^ These days can't you use GPS to tell if someone stopped at the scene of an accident?

Isnt that info recorded on her phone if GPS is on?

She's not a kid tho', she looks at least thirty!

looks younger with loads of slap on in her Twatter pics, weirdly

She only put mascara on half her left eye too.

She obviously didn't take as much proportion over her make up routine as usual.

Nope your GPS is only recorded if you tell your phone to.

did you see the look to camera at the end of the interview? said it all for me, totally fake and stage managed

Q: How many NRA members does it take to change a lightbulb?

A: More gunz!

Was one of the attackers wearing a stone island hat? There are going to be a lot of conflicted EDL members if they pick that up.
