Im not a teen im 25.

I havnt lived with my parents since i was 15.

And i have never claimed any sort of benefit.

Of course not, keely after all is only 4'11

I usually find that those intent on pointing out complete strangers sense of self importance tend to be the most self important themselves. I'm glad I provide you with entertainment.

'I HAVE AN IGNORE LIST LOL. I PRBABLY DNT WANT TO TALK TO YOU'.

I was also never aware that admitting cowardice to the prospect of armed combat made one self important. I find it rather humbling.
I'm a coward for not wanting to go to war and for admitting that I let other people do it for me [speaking hypopthetically, of course, because I'm not in the UK]. Thing is I admit it.

SO ... are you a coward? After all ... your not going to war, are you? Why not?

I just really don't see the big deal with admitting I'm a coward at the prospect of going to war. Most people are, even if they don't want to admit it. It hardly paints me out to be a coward in all other areas of life.

Stu, were you there? Livia was defending Steve.

No wai!

I think I explained in my last post.

My personal view is that a hero is someone that consciously does something brave and noble in a given situation to serve a higher cause or his comrades.



Becoming a soldier dosent automatically qualify a man for that.

Ok, sorry :)

Actually, you initially answered something I'd posted to someone else... you jumped in with some citicism of me... I was a complete stranger. You've made me a bit of a project and used quote after quote of mine. You're wasting your time really, I have no intension of going backwards and forwards with you I see now that I was over-egging your entertainment value. You use a hell of a lot of words to say virtually nothing.

I refer you to my footer that you find so hilarious, which will save you the bother of ranting away ad nausium, and will save me the bother of reading your tedious posts.

I do understand that. But i don't see any point to dismiss Steve JUST bacause he WAS there. I do understand that Irish pr1cks and teens are hating him (just because they hate their dads) but it is useless to use his background to hate him.

Being a serving soldier means you are on the frontline and in a potentially fatal position. Its a dirty job with the ultimate consequences. Somebody has to do it.

I think there is something heroic about that. Theyre sitting ducks and don't get hugely compensated for being such.

This basically, I respect the man for rebuilding and making the most of his life but he is an awful HM.

Hmm ...

Yep.

Agree 100%

I agree with that.

But I'm not dismissing him, sweetheart. In fact I originally backed up that Steve already denied he was a hero, and that this topic perhaps was aimed more at OTHERS who consider him a hero.

See now you are just being a cunt.

Cunt.

But teens don't realize that. They have their ipods and playstations. Isn't world just peace loving place? Only UK soldiers are making it worse....

Everytime you scream about teens and social welfare, all the rest of us hear is 'I'm a bitter old bag'.

Thats a valid way of seeing it, I get where your coming from.

I personally just don't being a career soldier makes you a hero... it earns you my respect and my thanks, but the word 'hero' has become overused and devalued I think.

So who did blow him up then? But don't get me wrong, i don't hate Ireland.

Mojo, please... I am obviously not a teen and am making a valid point.

This is my view.

Also, going back to MojoNixon and his use of the term 'Irish pr1cks', I think this is why many of us have our doubts about Steve. He seems like the person who off camera would say things like that.

A bit of a MojoNixon, if you will.

Maybe i should be. After all, i work my arse off every night. What do you do?
But again, i don't have anything against you. And i won't gonna continue fight with you. You are OK.

Terrorists blew him up. I don't see what nationality has to do with it. They are Irish terrorists, yes, but the English have not all recently become a nation of pr1cks becuase Raoul Moat done a nut.

No you don't. I remeber you Che Guevara avatar, so i do know EXACTLY what you are thinking.

I work too, you know. It's this prepostrous assumptive attitude I don't like :wink:.
