I read the first 5 pages with comments and the ´haha´ + other comments made me sick. Happily most other posts were very much showing dislike at these sicko´s.

Horrifying indeed. The sad thing is that policeman is himself at fault - he actually waits and then blocks that road lane with the large lorry as the next vehicle. This means that until the lorry actually moves over to the other lane, the cars behind are unaware of the policeman and can´t see him until there are just seconds to spare....
It seems a really unsafe thing to attempt, even without the lorry because vehicles were still using the other lane which the blocked lane had to move into. He should have waited until there was a bigger space int he traffic.

Though the US denied that any of the people killed were civilians, NATO acknowledged that there was “a possibility” that some civilians were killed.
Just in case there is still doubt that the west is subject to censorship and propaganda...:-
" Western forces were engulfed in bitter controversy yesterday after Nato air strikes on two oil tankers hijacked by the Taliban in northern Afghanistan led to carnage with a fireball killing 95 people, dozens of them civilians.
Most of those who perished were burned to death. Nato initially insisted that all the dead were Taliban insurgents but later, after angry protests from residents and officials, they acknowledged there had been civilian deaths.
The attack at the village of Haji Aman, around seven miles from Kunduz, could not have come at a more volatile time in Afghanistan, with intense anger over civilian casualties and an intensifying clash between President Hamid Karzai and Washington over the disputed national election. The incumbent President has repeatedly complained about civilian deaths from Nato air strikes".

Women: masters of deception
Farrah Fawcett had been living with Ryan O´Neal for a few years when she died, although they were famous for their on-off, sometimes stormy, sometimes passionate, relationship for three decades.
Ryan apparently stepped up to the mark and was there for her in her battle against cancer. But now Greg Lott, a former American footballer, says he and Farrah had an 11-year affair. Ryan, naturally, denies it. But would he know?
The word on the "studies show" street is that women are having more affairs than they used to and, interestingly, that they are better than men at keeping them secret. Better at not getting caught, it seems.
It doesn´t surprise me. Women are brought up to please and to please men especially. (Like the way Farrah was busy being a Charlie´s Angel.)
They´re brought up to tell lies better and more easily.
So be warned, patriarchy you´re grooming women for infidelity!

Well it obviously proves the point :
"YOU/women´re brought up to tell lies better and more easily.
You/women were groomed for infidelity by the patriarchy"
