You are aware that a politician was stabbed and shot olto death just near 3 years ago.
That politicians are getting death threats and truly vile abuse.
In all political Parties.
Not just people not liking them but deep rooted intense hate and threats by some really likely disturbed and crazy or awful people.

Now what message is sent to those vile people when they see soldiers using as a target a leader of a political Party.

I'm afraid, they'd be out the door for me, they disgrace the uniform they wear.
No matter which politicians they used of any Party.
You were outraged at the events after Thatcher's death.
Rightly so, so was I.

It's fine here though for soldiers to simulate firing at a politician.
In the volatile climate many politicians of all Parties find themselves in st present..

I thought you were far fairer and more balanced than that Kazanne.

Hate for someone should not see people justify the simulating shooting of them, prank or no prank.
