Thank you so much for your very kind words and, as always, your essential insights into matters pertaining to the UK.
The story you relate sounds like so many others that happen and reminds us all how dead-set against anything close to logic those on the Left are. Hopefully this woman’s obvious lack of brain cells will also serve to help her forget to vote regularly.
I recall a similar frustration not long ago when I was at a British news forum and was trying to bring a few actual facts to a thread about firearms in the USA. Despite my efforts at courtesy and of being clear that I’m a Yank and that I’ve owned numerous high-powered guns for over forty years and have been surrounded by them my whole life, yet I’ve never murdered anyone and haven’t even encountered a need to draw on anyone yet. I told them that no, our streets in America aren’t constantly running with blood and most auto accidents do not result in wild gunfights. Nobody believed me and they refused to recite the ludicrous statements and completely untrue ‘statistics’ that were printed in the Independent or the Guardian or some other hard-left UK paper....they couldn’t care less what an actual lifelong Yank gun owner thought.
When it comes to the Left, their politics are their religion and they refuse to believe anything that’s not part of the Left’s template on any given issue. It must be a very comfortable and secure belief system to have....one that doesn’t depend upon any evidence, science or logic...only emotion, hysteria and politics.
It’s probably best to just treat them like four-year-olds and smile and walk away when they start screaming.
Should be "Nobody believed me and they refused to consider any other position than the idiotic untruths they had apparently grown up with, and continued to recite the ludicrous statements......"
Sorry I didn't proofread that one properly before I posted :-)
I have a sig p229 and I’ve constantly argued with people when I gom back to England about guns and the laws
the masses have been brainwashed by the likes of the guardian BBC etc and then they say it’s me what needs to think
the irony hey
