Basic freedom of speach



30 July

Islam is a religion that is just so loving and peaceful isn’t it? I am part of Facebook group set up for ex-members of the Army Catering Corps and Royal Logistics Corps. I had a look on their first thing this morning and found this … https://www.facebook.com/photo.php?fbid=740325569411029&set=a.103698926407033.7442.100003007776715&type=1&theater    Basically it’s the usual crap about how hard done by Muslims are and how they are going to kill all ex-service men. A lot comments have been made about this but none are very favourable.

These people here in the UK, actually worldwide, are so big and hard that they resort to back stabbing and cowardly attacks on decent folk no matter what religion they are. None of them will stand and do and say what this piece of trash says will happen. No, they quietly post such things through the letter boxes of people rather than knock the door and say it all face to face. And here’s the thing folks …

In the western world they can actually stand up and say what they feel is right, and do so without sanction. Yet if they tried that in any of the areas, or publicly condemn ISIS where control they would be killed in unspeakably barbaric ways. There really isn’t any reason for any of this, no matter where in the world it goes on. It’s not about religion at all; no, it’s all about power and money in the end. To gain both they terrorise those who live and work in poverty. There is no religion that can justify this.

My plan for today was to get ready and ride into town on me scooter and potter about taking photos using just my basic 18-55mm Nikkor lens instead of my 18-270mm Tamron. However, we’ve woken up to a dull. Cloudy, grey sky that produces a flat even light; not at all good for what I was aiming for. I shall hang on and see if it brightens up a bit after lunch so I can get out then. If not, then when Jan goes out in about half an hour, I shall get down do some writing. At least the day won’t be wasted then will it.

I’m pleased with my decision not to install Windows 10 straight away. Prash, one of FB friends posted a message on there last night saying that he could downloaded, it wasn’t available in his area. Another guy then said the release was going to staggered, so that the system wouldn’t crash under the mad rush to upgrade, sensible choice that seeing as 10 is a free download. Even if it wasn’t free there are some folks who will go for it just to be up to date.

We see the same thing when camera manufacturers bring out new models. There’s a small group of enthusiasts who must have the latest up to date kit. Mobile phones is another one. Brand loyalty also plays its part too. How many people do you know who rushed out to buy the new Apple iPhone when it was released? What puzzles me is where the dosh come from seeing as money is supposed to be so tight.

Today’s photo then …

Today’s funny is another child’s version of the Bible …

 Apparently, Adam needed someone to blame his troubles on when God caught him hiding in the garden.
