Reply | Far right politico Charlie Kirk just shot in the neck in Utah
at 17:40 11 Sep 2025
Having empathy for people you really, really don't like or agree with is incredibly important, I think. Kirk stood for pretty much everything I stand against. Don't get it twisted, he was a far right hatemonger in the guise of a free speech debater, and there is an absolute plethora of evidence to this end. He was making a concerted effort to influence youth culture across the States in line with Trumpist politics, which I abhor.
But he obviously, OBVIOUSLY didn't deserve to die for those beliefs. This is a f-ed up democracy but a democracy, of sorts, it is - political violence has no place there. Whether it has a place anywhere is debatable, I think, but not really in this context. |

It's complex and nuanced, so any succinct "this is what's happening" should be met with raised eyebrows, but in my mind it is relatively simple: the vast majority of people are being exploited more and more by a system devised to, and increasingly hellbent on, creating wealth for a tiny minority. |

Adult ST. I am away and the usual suspects can't make it, so thought I'd offer it out on here before I release back to the club for sale at higher cost. DM please. |

Reply | Burnley fan jailed for killing Blackpool fan
at 12:23 23 May 2025
Mad how many 'one punch' killings there have been in recent years. One outside of O'Neils in Blackheath springs to mind when I lived there.
My martial arts training (albeit ages ago) feels relevant. In potentially violent situations, it was escape first, if not then de-escalation, if not then disarmament/subdue. Hitting someone, in any form, was a last resort and never to the head. Was also the complication of being handed a worse sentence if you were a black belt too which made getting into those situations even more risky/silly. |

Thread | Best and worst away fans at PR this season
at 10:14 23 May 2025
I haven't been able to get back to as many games (cos life) so have been giving the ST to mates and my old man on occasion, so am interested in the board's view. The usual caveat of it depending massively where you sit as to whether you can even adequately judge away fans...but from J block...
Worst - Liverpool - I know it was an early kick off and all that but god, they were dreadful. Quiet tourists
Best - City - loud, celebratory, and almost entirely backing their side rather than engaging in "going down" faux banter |

Our bit is probably the worst for it with those new boxes.
Has been an almost completely trouble free season in and around PR, and suspect a lot of that is to do with sensible policing for once. |

5 is fine. 22 is annoying. They also then kept leaving and entering and I'd keep getting the notification.
To be fair they were really good in the end. |
