Saudi girl, 13, sentenced to 90 lashes after she took a mobile phone to school

It's like the paper you pick up that's all colourful, loud and promises so much, but inside there's nothing but hollow words, sensationalist headlines and meaningless accusations.

It makes outrageous claims and promises to be interesting, it promises to highlight all the worlds ills by providing you with an endless number of scapegoats that you can pin a stereotypical view on. It teaches you that anything that steps outside a certain 'normal' parameter must be met with hostility and suspicion. It's preys on sad people because it plays on their obvious emotional instability, THEIR FEAR. If they can pump you full of fear you, too can pretend you sit with them on the moral high ground because you're that insecure you need a tabloid newspaper to tell you what to think, what to feel, what to love, what to hate. It suppresses any independant thought.

 

:D

:bigcry: Why can't we all just get along and cry over how much pain this poor girl must be going through, hell, I could never imagined being whipped. :sad:

 

Well I have been doing my best to get people to stick to the topic, but to no avail, unfortunately.:dozey:

 

As I said, public flogging is a barbaric practice and has no place whatsoever in modern society.

Anyone that condones that sort of punishment is clearly "warped".;)

Every newspaper we pick up here is like that. :shame:

As warped as my shining star speech? :charming:

Sounds like you've been brainwashed by the anti-Mail brigade.:rolleyes:

Still off-topic, anyway.:dozey:

I've not seen it. Where did you post it?:confused:

Much as you like to think so, not everything is about you.:rolleyes:

 

Then who said to dismiss everything from the Dail Mail? Over-exaggerating again Mark?

 

Still doing it. You're like someone with tourette's, except in your case the problem is "insults" rather than profanity.:rolleyes:

 

I think you often confuse abusiveness with an opinion. It's pretty obvious that you do have a poor attention span, that is my opinion, based on 99.9% of your posts which are one or two lines with a smiley thrown in for kicks, so I was just making it clear what part of the post I wanted you to focus on.

 

Incorrect. Now you're just being silly.:rolleyes:

 

Wow you edited out the bit that didn't suit you! You should work for the Mail. Yes you did say I'm incapable of writing posts that aren't abusive, meaning 100% of my thousands of posts are apparently abusive.

I've not seen it. Where did you post it?:confused:

 

:lipsrsealed2:

Ahhh perhaps Mark should move there where he can be spolit for choice with all the newspapers telling him what to think. If we're lucky it'll make his head explode since there's nothing he hates more than having to formulate his own opinion on something.

 

 

 

At least you're not denying your obvious Mail-bias there. Admitting it is the first step towards recovery. Well done. Good boy :dozey:

In one way or another, numerous individuals are implying it all the time.;)

Well you're wrong about that too, as it happens. You obviously don't pay enough attention yourself.:rolleyes:

You're just being pedantic. The point is, you do seem to be rather addicted to hurling insults for some reason.:dozey:

 

It would be far better if you could discuss topics without "getting personal".

Can't we all just get along?

 

As I've said on numerous occasions, if everyone is able to discuss topics or participate in threads without "getting personal", that should be possible.;)

If you don't like the topic or thread for some reason, simply ignore it.:cool:

Final Track, I thought this was Coldplaying :lol:

I meant the story.

Yes, Coldplaying = Sick perverts, not hostile individuals.

It also equals DRAMA! OH NOES!

Well while such barbaric practices exist, I reckon that's going to be pretty difficult.:(

And texting. :disappointed: Love yer sig. :awesome:^
