It wasn’t a ‘reflex reaction’. It made my comment in consideration of the long posting history of the member to whom I was responding. I’m glad we agree the issue here is the extremists views.

I tend to assess members political leaning on the basis of the posts they make, not on the basis of what they claim to be their allegiance. The two are frequently at odds with each other.

‘Tear down the system’ is a rallying cry of both extremes, left and right. It was central to Marxism and it’s a central theme of the modern US Alt-right, Steve Bannon being a proponent of note. https://amp.cnn.com/cnn/2017/02/23/politics/steve-bannon-world-view/index.html

You obviously don’t understand the political spectrum isn’t a straight line, it’s sits on a circle. The extremes of right and left meet and are indistinguishable.

The kind of misrepresentation of facts that characterizes rightwing grievance politics. There’s a reason law enforcement officers executing lawful, court warrant approved, entry and search always go in armed. And it’s not to murder anyone to deny their free speech. Pointing a gun at anyone, is not free speech, pointing a gun at officers enacting a lawful entry and search is not free speech.

Jack be nimble, Jack be quick.

White right-winger gets shot dead by law enforcement officers. A ‘man bites dog’ news story if ever I heard one.

I don’t think there is any suggestion of mariners ignoring a sinking boat. The prospect of such things are reserved for a particular kind of people from the comfort and safety of their armchair.

I seem to recall some of those bleating about this guy being shot by agents executing a lawful warrant banging on in the past about a guy murdered in cold blood by police officers. Something along the lines of ‘he was a danger to the officers/he should have followed the instructions given by the officers/he should not have resisted the officers performing their lawful duty’.

I think you can both be right. It’s not at all unusual for individuals to have wildly different experiences with Thai authorities.

Like I say, I’m not inclined to follow you off topic just because you don’t like the actual topic of discussion.

So for everyone else ‘let’s just wait for the facts’. While you proceed with the wild suggestion of the guy being ‘executed JUST for posting on FB’.

It’s the ‘World News’ sub forum.

Thoughts and prayers.

Cross thread trolling?!

Yes, an imaginary world. Labour are not in Government, haven’t been in Government for over 14 years.

So how’s the UK economy going where you are? Where I am people are struggling, and it’s not getting any better.

Simply sticking to the topic of discussion, and not getting distracted by your attempts to wander off to hide behind an imaginary world where Labour are in Government.

There are no Unicorns, it’s an allegory for all the other false BREXIT promises and wistful thinking that lead the UK into the ever drowning mess it’s in. A nation removes itself from the largest developed free trade union on the planet, one a few short miles from its own southern border. The economy flinders. A now you want to listen to experts. Go look through the files of ‘Project Fear’.

Except I do understand the ‘Government’s predicament’ it’s one of their own making. A failure to clear asylum seekers and a failure to provide safe asylum routes - put it under the heading ‘A failure of Government’. And nothing at all to do with you ‘Anti Brit’ personal attack or indeed Labour.

You want a link to an expert for a Brexit lie?! Sweet irony lives.

‘Stop the boats’ turns into ‘Build Barges’. It would be comedy if it were not already farce.

Refer Intelligence and Security Committee Russia report, rinse, repeat and elevate Russians to the House of Lords.

The alternative is to review their asylum claims, allow those who are successful to enter society, work to keep themselves, contribute and pay taxes, while reporting those whose claims are bogus. But that would mean dealing with the issue rather than putting on performances at tax payers expense while funneling tax payer’s money to Government chums.

Apart from continual personal attacks, do you have anything to add to the discussion?
