Calling for the death penalty while they are still searching his house would probably qualify.

I call a spade a spade. I will also describe people on the right as 'right wingers' if that makes you happy... In this case, if it walks like a duck, swims like a duck and quacks, I'm not going to call it a horse ????.

You clearly don't understand the rules. If you don't agree with everything they say, you are a Trump loving, gun toting, white supremacist ????. Or at least that's what they label you, and then they proceed to argue against your (completely imagined) Trump loving, gun toting, white supremacist views. It's standard procedure on here. This thread is an excellent example. They don't understand the concept of Neutrality. It blows their mind.

Well, if they are fans of Trump (unlike me) then they are clearly not neutral observers. Was that some kind of a rhetorical question? An attempt at humour? Or have I greatly overestimated your ability to understand the word Neutral?

Unbiased people see left and right. They see moderate and radical. I am stating what I see. If that offends you, so be it.

There is no place for teachers hitting children. Just as there is no place for police officers hitting children, doctors hitting children, monks hitting children etc. It can also lead to retaliatory action, by parents or pupils. I had a friend who was slapped by a teacher in front of the class at the age of 9-10 for saying he didn't want to take part in the school play. Several years later after a few beers at the local pub, he brought up the incident still clearly aggrieved by it and I had to talk him out of going round to the teacher's house (whose address we knew since he was a parent of another pupil in the school) to beat the living daylights out of him. Similarly, it wouldn't surprise me to see one of these teachers in Thailand badly beaten (or worse) by an enraged parent. It should be stopped immediately by sacking offending teachers with no recourse, and no pension.

I am neutral because I am neither a Republican nor a Democrat. I do not support Trump nor Biden. It's really not complicated. Trump is under investigation. Are you aware of the presumption of innocence? You have clearly decided he is guilty and already prepared your conclusion for if he is found not guilty. That is what's known as political bias. First the impeachment. Now the FBI crawling all over his properties. Only a blind man (or one who wishes not to see) could fail to understand what is happening.

Nothing contradictory in those 2 statements. As a neutral, it's very easy to spot a radical leftist on these threads. Just as it's easy to see someone who is right wing. I call it as I see it.

You stated he did things for which the punishment is jail. You are now saying he is suspected of doing things. Massive difference. Get your story straight and stick to it. Yes you lefties should probably ignore the whole Hunter Biden thing. Keep that head in the sand, you'll sleep better at night.

A lot of assumptions there my friend.???? I am indeed neutral on US politics but the way the FBI is going after Trump is clearly politically motivated, it's clear as day. However, you radical lefties would never admit such a thing since behind all your talk of due process you secretly support it due to your hatred of Trump. Acting as if judges cannot show political bias or be bought ????. Like I said, people with skin in the game cannot see the wood for the trees, or simply choose to ignore it since it matches/supports their political agenda. It requires a neutral observer like myself to point out the glaringly obvious and even then the Antifa types will shout us down with their usual vitriol. ????

I saw that he was accused of a lot of things by the radical left. I thought the US still had due process, innocent until proven guilty? Or have the far left removed this along with freedom of speech, freedom of expression, freedom of thought etc? I agree people should go to jail irrespective of their politics. Which makes the Hunter Biden debacle even more puzzling.

Yes, let's inconvenience the real fans in England that support their teams week in week out, paying through the turnstiles in all weather, buying the official merchandise, creating the atmosphere in the stadiums that is core to the product, just so that it's more convenient for Asian fans to watch their illegal streams while wearing their 200 Baht kits from the local flea market. Great idea.

Couple of staged photo ops. Great job. That'll fix it.

I'm not even a fan of Trump (nice deflection though). I thought he had some good policies and some bad policies, and while he could come across as a bit of a loose cannon at times I never really understood the Left's unhinged obsession with him. It was bordeline psychotic at times. That said, as a non-Amercian neutral observer it's painfully obvious to see what is happening over there. The way the FBI are going after him is in total contrast to the way they dragged their feet over Hunter Biden's laptop. The political situation (and the bulk of the American MSM) is a total disgrace and a complete embarrassment for the US. Unfortunately, those with skin in the game are too distracted to see the bigger picture, or too heavily invested to care. The loser is the country, and more evidently it's reputation. Other countries used to look up to you guys. Now we just shake our heads when we read stories like this. Descending to banana republic status.

Of course it was politically motivated. They are terrified of him returning to power and are desperate to find something on him. Anything will do. It's a shame the FBI weren't so thorough when given Hunter Biden's laptop.

Cost of living crisis? It's the cost of lockdown crisis. Funny how the likes of Sturgeon who were pushing for harder and harder lockdown measures are now at the front of the queue to complain that the proverbial financial chickens of such lockdowns are coming home to roost. Hopefully the little attention seeker is put back in her box for another year. People have enough problems without having to listen to her trying to cash in the crisis that was caused by policies she was pushing.

Wow. State sponsored raids on the homes of political rivals? The USA is looking more and more like a third world banana republic every day.

I know he said he'd only stay 6 months, but come on - 6 months... 8 years... What's the big deal? Why do they keep bothering him with these little details? They should be thankful that he sacraficed himself to return happiness to the people, the ungrateful little serfs.

I don't really see an issue here. He might not have known how serious the fire was going to be if he was sat near the entrance and one of the first to escape. I might have grabbed my beer as well if I thought I was going to be stuck in the car park for half an hour before we were going to be allowed back in. Obviously that's not how things transpired but I doubt he was an expert on burning buildings and was probably quite drunk by 1am. Also, throwing the ice water over your head and then shielding your face with the bucket might have been a decent idea if you're having to run through a burning doorway. I think people are looking for a deflection, someone to point the finger at. Hey everyone, look at the bad guy over there.

Kind of. They want other countries to send them money. It's highly unlikely that money would be used to pay for anything related to climate change.

Thailand using the so called climate emergency to beg for cash from other countries. Never let a crisis go to waste.

They stipulate that any sub standard materials must be accompanied by a brown envelope to the building's inspector.

Not unlike how the left insinuate that anyone who doesn't agree with their views on trans issues, Critical Race theory etc. is a homophobe and a racist. You now see how easy it is to casually throw out vicious insults with no evidence to back them up. I guess you guys don't like it when the shoe is on the other foot...

Totally different. Of course. But an excellent example of how laws created with good intentions can be abused by little jobsworths who enjoy bossing people around. Bossing around the very same people who have outperformed them in every aspect of life and just happen to be passing through an international airport where they were lucky enough to find minimum wage employment. Pathetic specimens. If you met them anywhere outside the airport they would be cowering scrotes.

Silly? Getting onto an international flight with drugs that are illegal in the country of destination is not "silly". It's incredibly stupid. Fortunately for her, her celebrity, race and sexual orientation makes her a great story for the left wing MSM and hence the left wing government will latch onto it. If she was a 45 year old fat white woman called Ruth from Texas you wouldn't even know this had happened. It seems likely that Viktor Bout, nicknamed the merchant of death will be freed in an exchange deal as a result of her entitled attitude and stupidity. Well done Brittney. Great job. But hey, she ticks all the boxes. That's what counts...
