Yes I can quite understand that you have difficulty understanding anything communicated at an intellectual level over and above that intended for an eight year old, so no surprises there. And labeling it "Lunatic rantings"might, just might convince someone below that age that the problem doesn’t lie with you,or the fact that you’re as thick as a telephone directory for one of the larger urban conurbations. It might,but don’t hold your breath. So apart from the tripe that you’ve posted so far; what exactly are your thoughts on Homeland Security,their conduct,their effectiveness,does any fault lie with their procedures,their standard of training,should they perhaps include a different form of psychological selection when they apply,could they learn from other countries maybe. Oh sorry I forgot, that wasn’t your main purpose on joining this thread was it ? You thought that you were going to get a cheap kick: bullying someone, who you thought was a newbie. Bad luck I’m afraid and your luck isn’t going to get any better. ---

I said I lived in Manchester. I sure as shit wasn’t born here. Anyway, I’m not surprised you’re sticking up for this clown penis.
