    I’m very, very shocked by this… how can this be tolerated? I hope the video they send it to the police and get them to say sorry or pay the hospital bills for those who got injured. On the video that is attached to the article you can see around 1:05 that the police is really charging them. That’s just awfull! How can they do that?

     When the horses charged everyone started to run, I can’t imagine how it must have felt to be in such a crowd. Everyone must be panicking and falling on the floor, watching people run over eachother, just awfull. At 1:40, you can see a woman slipping between the horse and the fench, but a pregnant woman who ran after the escaped woman got trapped between the horse and the fench. A few seconds later you can see the woman cry and I got goosebumps because I was so angry and felt so sorry for the woman. Even a boy around the age of 13 got pushed by the police, I think I saw he was injured, I hope he isn’t..

    I just think that the police should come clean about this, this can not go on untouched. They have to do something about this, ofcourse we don’t really know what happend before (the article did say that they threw something at the police) but still, they don’t have to go and start running over everybody? I just hope the injured get justice.


    Artice + video;

    PS: just start watching the video at around a minute, because in the beginning it's just a woman whining about she losing her stuff.

    Klik hier om een link te hebben waarmee u dit artikel later terug kunt lezen." Six pupils excluded over Facebook hate campaign against classmate who paid tribute to British troops "
    I really don't understand why children have strated a hate campaign against their classmate Darius. He was just remembering his great-great uncle,Tom, who died at the Battle of the Somme in 1916.
    If you can't even hold a memorial for someone who has died,which still may work ? In the article it is mentioned that the youths were all 12 years old, I wonder how such young children get knuckle-dusters and knives ?
    Even a 12 year old child posted a picture of himself with an AK-47 rifle, and said : " I'll bang him ma self am a terrorist."
    Too bad Darius kept the bullying to himself. If the mother wouldn't have discovered it, it could have been fatal.
    You often see children who are bullied, dealing with this problem. They don't tell anybody because they think they are not going to believe them or that the bullying will get worse. The school is planning to start a campaign against bullying.
    Perhaps because Darius is not the only one who is bullied at school. If I were the boy I would tell a teacher, I could trust about the problem or at least my dad. I do not believe that the young people just said things like that just to teach Darius a lesson. If you post such pictures on 'Facebook' with knuckle-dusters,weapons and knives I am pretty sure the students would have used these things if the mother had not intervened.
    The bullies are now expelled from school but I do not think that the bullying will stop. Now they just go to another school and find another victim so there will never be an end to bullying!

    I was a bit shocked by the fact that the woman who is explaining the incident is used to gunfire in the neighbourhood as well as her daughter it seems who did not even mention the shooting in the morning, au contraire, she just told her mother they ate spaghetti for lunch. I am curious what the reason was why the masked gunmen tried to kill the young father when he dropped of his daughter. Maybe the 21 year old man was an ex-gangmember and he left his gang when his daughter was born and as in many gangs or mobs, other members can't handle the fact that some people would actually live a normal and perhaps useful life. I can't imagine that people would just kill inoscent parents or other people for that matter at a primary school just for the fun of it. The mother is affraid of explaining to her daughter that such things won't happen to her or something but I think that is exactly what she SHOULD'NT do. She has to tell her that incidents like that can happen once and a while and that she has to be careful in such a scenarios  and what she should do when something like that happens. Fear isn't a bad thing. One mustn't traumatize his children but try to make them be just a little bit more careful. As for the gunmen, I hope all of them get caught and will be sent to jail for a few years because if you do something this terrible, you diserve a serious punishment in return. To the 21-year-old daddy : I don't know what you did to diserve this but consider it as a warning or a second chance because you got lucky.

    My first impression: nice!

    Yes,I'm absolutely satisfied just by reading this.The beatles were great and we don't have to underestimate their influence.


    I really love their songs, but I didn't expect that so many people in the UK would buy their songs.

    I thought that nowadays most people were listening to lady gaga,or some other extravagant icon.Not in the UK as you can read.I like that!The music itself must be in the first place the reason to buy a CD/to buy it on the internet.Well,The beatles had very good songs,that's why there are plenty of covers from them,for example“a day in the life” covered by jeff beck: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=o1tHshH8e0c. It gives me shivers...

    my top 3 must be something like this.

    1.Let it be

    2.a day in the life - (I'm listening it right now)

    3.while my guitar gently weeps

    So I can agree with most of the songs in the Itunes top 200.I have to say that I did not use Itunes myself (not yet) to buy a song.I prefer Cd's.But I think that Itunes is a great invention.Now back to the beatles, oh yes, unfortunately I was born after their time,so I've never seen them Live.But in these times,I would have been a hippie I think.I have the hair already ;).The music just makes me happy and lively.Their messages were clear; "... here comes the sun..." I mean who would not understand this?No solo of 30 minutes,just a ( I'm looking for the right word) euhm fair song.

    Hopefully the world will not forget them.
