I'm very rarely invovled with those four page RIP threads for footballers and understand how you can think that if they get respect then so should the bus victims. I don't think there is anything more important for me to vent my frustrations on though, I can't see what's more important than the "War on terror" and our government's attitude towards it at the moment.
The thing that gets on my tits is that it's all part of the propaganda. When we want to eradicate thousands of innocents it's collateral damage in a war but when the other side of the battle fight back it's terrorism; how is that right? It's all part of the process of making everyone scared so that they can cut down liberties and bring in laws and policies that they shouldn't be.
Note to Hermes: The day my political and idealogical views don't clash with yours is the day I need to take a cold hard look at myself.

The fact that you spend hours typing out a defence of the murderers of innocent people but can't spare two minutes for the people they have killed says a lot about you Stu.
Go strap on your bomb belt, the train will be along in a minute.
