I can imagine Prince Charles thinking, “Where’s Jack Ryan when you need him?”

I mean, this is practically a scene from the movie PATRIOT GAMES, only without the gunfire. For that matter, the movie made the ambushed member of the royal family something ridiculously remote — “the Queen Mother’s cousin” — but in the original Tom Clancy novel, it was definitely Prince Chuck and Lady Di whom Jack Ryan rescued.

To whoever posted about Kate Middleton-—

Women used to that for eons until the “Liberation” of the 60s. (Which began in the Soviet Union, btw.) And I resent the heck out of the Sixties for that of quite a number of reasons.

I frankly resent having been forced to work while raising our child-— there is nothing wrong with wanting to be a terrific wife to a good man and be the best mom you can be—not it’s almost impossible to be a stay at home mom due to the taxes and high costs of living today. (and living in a poor, usually crime ridden neighborhood is not an option.)

Young people enjoying themselves and having one drink too many?. Shocking. Of course you have lived a life of a maiden aunt.

Oh, and the lingerie pics are from her modelling lingerie at a CHARITY event. Terrible these youngsters, trying to help others. So selfish.

Can’t imagine the mob sentiment and mindset that would enable anyone to surge forward and attack the future King, or any human being for that matter.
