I can only hope that a significant misfortune befalls them personally.
I often wonder what goes through the sludge of a brain of such sub-humans.

This has been commented on before, on an earlier thread.

This is vile, but it is not new.

This kind of thing was happening 200years ago.

Kipling noted it a hundred years ago.

Shakespear refers to it in various plays.

Still doesn't make it right - but I guess young people don't really 'get' that they could also one day experience the same misfortune. i know it never even crossed my mind at 18.

This was the thing that really got my goat this morning:

I think the difference between the past, and now, it now there is a sence of outrage.

After the Peninsular War, there would not have been.

This IS an improvement.

Unbelievable. So, how would he feel if someone did that over his close relative's gravestone?

Put those arseholes in a war situation. They'd scream like sissies. That would teach them something

The person who took the photo is just as culpable, I hope there's room in the cell for both of them.

Nah, don't think the proper army is the way to go for them. The last I want is someone to show those yobs how to use a gun properly or even worse yet: have them defend the country. For that I'd prefer professionals with honour and integrity.

But some sort of boot camp might sort them out. ^^ Get some really old-fashioned drill sergeant with a huge handlebar mustache and have him yell at those scumbags from dusk till dawn (and perhaps a couple of times after midnight for good measure).

Then why did the likes of Shakespeare & Kipling feel the need to comment on it?

saw that and wa sglad to see the police are taking action wonder if an acquaintnace is still a JP in Sheffield ex major and scary with it.
There’s a country in Europe where they treat their ex soldiers with pride no waits for medical treatment after injuries received during service, no amensia from the government. Cant for the life of me recall where it is but I know exactly where it is not.

I did read that the man in the picture has since come forward, expressed his deep regret and sorrow and undertaken to make suitable amends for what was a act of drunken stupidity.
