I learned today that after all the kerfuffle following former vice president Dick Cheney shooting the elderly Texas attorney Harry Whittington in the face and torso that occured in an accident on a private ranch Whittington's family sent a letter to Cheney apologized for all the trouble and anxiety Cheney had suffered due to the accident.


What made me laugh even more was that in 2006 Vladimir Putin, a man/monster you'd expect to be devoid of any sense of humour, rejected Cheney's criticism of human rights violations as "a failed hunting shot".


Ha ha.

    • WoW Sue, all guns blazing. 
    • So you don't feel safe in London, but you don't want to live elsewhere? What do you do, barricade yourself in your home and never venture out? I have my eyes (sic)  open. Yes there is crime in London. That doesn't make London "lawless".
    • Well good for you, I don't feel safe. And saying why don't I go and live somewhere else is crass.  Yes London is lawless, open your eys and see the reality. 
    • Also, as discussed on another thread, that particular  assailant was possibly (we don't know)  mentally ill. Whereas I'm guessing most crimes locally are   committed for money, (ie things that can be sold, or in hopes of insurance money), food (if someone is really desperate, or to sell) or just pure mischief (like the recent goings on on Peckham Rye). I'm a 76 year old woman, and I feel safe on the streets, and I frequently go to Central London. If you seriously don't feel safe living here, why on earth don't you go and live somewhere else?! It's absolute nonsense to say London is lawless, and it's absolute nonsense to say the police stand by and do nothing. There will always be crime. It used to be cutpurses and highwaymen. And organised gangs of thieves. And people like Jack the Ripper.
