  1. Who mentioned religion? Anyway, being anti one religion or another is not being racist. It's discrimination by religion. If, and only if, I said I don't like Jews, I'm being antisemitic. Not racist. Have a read about recent comments by Diane Abbott. You may learn something.
  2. You really don't understand the meaning of "Racist" do you? I certainly am not racist. If I said I don't like America or France, I'm not being racist. I have not mentioned race.
  3. Racism is discrimination against race. It doesn't matter where you are or where you come from.
  4. Racism is discrimination by race. USA,UK,France and Canada are not races. They are countries. Those people coming from those countries have that country's nationality. If I'll be saying " I've got nothing against them" about whom would I be speaking? Thanks.
  5. Haven't what? I asked what the device was. Do you know?
  6. Not trolling. It's just a bit confusing when you write something like this " Right, why would the FBI conduct forensics after an explosion in the capitol building? It makes no sense at all. You know they have and now you're accusing them of lying to cover that it was just a squib but they arrested him anyway. You;'re really stretching a long bow here, fooling nobody." An unfounded accusation based on unpublished forensics. I thought you might have had proof of something. Never mind.
  7. Please could you link to the forensic report and where the FBI have actually confirmed what type of "explosive device" it was. Thanks.
  8. The link I provided shows figures from the last 10 years. I'm proficient enough at maths to have worked out £300m minus £80m is £220m. When you speak of the Crown Estate continuing to create revenue, thus the economy not suffering, you are neglecting to consider the funds remaining the property of the, possibly abolished, Monarchy. That situation will not be known until such an event occurs.
  9. You are funny. I have made no such suggestion. I asked a question. Your inability to answer steers me towards your real views. Thanks for answering, indirectly.
  10. OK. I can only assume you used the incorrect terminology. You meant to say " discrimination by nationality" rather than "racism" Bearing in mind the countries quoted are multi racial and multi cultural, discriminating against the population of said countries cannot be deemed "racist".
  11. Not at all. I suggested and asked for opinion on the matter of the device. I did make reference to the FBI and the charges. Now, let's see if you can do a good job here. Are you ready? As with a bank robbery, if the robbers use an imitation gun they will get less of a sentence than if they ysed a real gun, if caught. Based on the suggestion that they didn't intend to harm anyone. Now, pay attention, if someone were to throw a firework or banger or fire crackers into a crowd, do you think the charges should be lesser than someone who threw a bomb or grenade?
  12. I haven't agreed with anything. I asked questions. Please, break a habit of a life time and answer some questions, in your own words, using your own brain power, without the need for links. More commonly known as conversation.
  13. OK, so please explain how reference to France, Canada, UK and America can be racist?
  14. Especially as the state prosecutor's key (only) witness is the murderer himself, who escaped the death sentence by implicating Glossip.
  15. I don't understand your post. You certainly have not answered my question. However, since you mentioned it. I would imagine charges would differ dependant on what the device was. Wouldn't you?
  16. You shouldn't have much trouble drawing up a decent shortlist of schools nearby.
  17. https://www.gov.uk/government/publications/sovereign-grant-act-2011-guidance/sovereign-grant-act-2011-guidance As yet unconfirmed. Already addressed with my link above. The Sovereign Grant is a small percentage of the money received from the Crown estate.
  18. So, what was the device? The report mentions a deafening noise but no mention of damage? Is it more likely it was a banger, I've seen some that really do make an incredible noise, rather than a bomb or grenade?
  19. Judging by your posts on the teaching forum, you've been earning in excess of 100000 baht (£2500) a month for many years. That doesn't sound like someone who needs to stay in "a tiny, cold room (no heating) that had interesting black mold growing up the walls"
  20. Royal finances are published every year. The Royal family, via the Crown estate, are net contributors to the UK economy. It averages out to about £220m a year. If there were a process enacted to abolish the Monarchy, it is as yet unclear what would happen to the Crown estate. Republicans obviously say it would become state property, others say not. One thing for sure is the Royals would still have a lot of personal wealth and would likely not suffer financially. The UK economy obviously would suffer, it would need to support a head of state along with their staff. The economy would also, potentially, lose the income from the Crown estate. So, if one's reasoning for abolishing the Monarchy is financial, it's probably time to re evaluate. If one's reasoning for abolishing the Monarchy is democratic, why not start a movement for a referendum. Just don't complain if there is one and the result is 52/48 in favour of the monarchy. ????????????
  21. What's the point in moving to a foreign country dnd getting married, to someone whose background you know, if you're not going to get on with the family, language and culture. I wonder how many on here would accept things this way if the shoe was on the other foot. What if you took your lady home and she refused to live in your town, do your things, speak your language and get on with your family?
  22. I have a friend in UK who works nights. He often posts during his break. That's 2am. 8 am Thai time. How would someone know that? There used to be a guy I knew, Norwegian, in Buriram who was insomniac. He'd often post at 1 or 2am Thai time. How would someone know that?
  23. Interesting. How exactly does timing of responses show who lives where?
