There has been a terrible disaster in Pakistan with the explosion of a spilled tanker which killed approximately 150 people who were scrambling to get the free fuel that was leaking. This has been barely touched on in the UK media - bottom page stuff. Not to mention the commentary that I've seen, not just on the Daily Mail site but other places, has been divided into 'Good, serves them right for stealing' and 'Good, they won't be coming over here then.'
Human beings sicken me sometimes.

It's a good job that the person I am talking to on facebook is a good forty miles away from me right now or I really would be inclined to thump him

Someone look at the thread I started yesterday and tell me what you think? The discussion between one Allan - not ours - and me.

Are you actually asking us to look at a thread with nasty comments? I'll decline thank you.

I'm not sure which thread you're talking about.
That said, Orwell noticed this long ago: all animals are equal, some simply more so than others.

I saw that discussion. I've argued with him before (about Corbyn) and didn't feel inclined to engage with him again. He doesn't seem a very nice person.

He's a friend from school but yeah, he has some ideas that piss me off. He was whining recently about Bill Potts being a 'lesbo'

Anyone that still uses the term 'looney left' is not with dealing with.

I read about this. The people did not obey the police who said they should keep away. All they thought about was getting free fuel. But I suppose they were very poor. And then some idiot lit a cigarette. I thought "served him right if he died but sorry about all the others". But we feel more when it is about people who are geographically and culturally nearer to us, this is a simple fact. Has nothing to do with the value of lives.
