WHY?

After the tragic sad events in Denver a few days ago ,I find myself wondering why is it people are fascinated by guns. Personally Ive only ever fired a gun on one occasion and that was when I was fifteen (many years ago). I had visited my family in Glenwood Springs and I remember it vividly as my Uncle took his guns to the firing range. It was good, yes, but it never wanted me to go out and buy one.
The big difference between England and USA is gun attitude,Ive no idea on the politics of gun laws in either country and nor do I really care if I'm honest ,each to their own I suppose. Is it down to the "glory" of the old cowboys ? In England if you have a gun in the house in the UK then you are going to get in a lot of trouble off the Police. In the USA ,perception appears to be (sterotypically) if you don't have one you are a freak.I don't know if this is a fair view or just a biased view.
What drives these "crazies" to go on wild murdering mass murdering shooting sprees? Are guns so easy to get in America ?Are there rules? I can understand people who go hunting with guns for food for the freezer in winter ,that has rational reasons .I can understand people who grow up in  and around a gun environment and want to fire guns but why not just go to a range?
Its so sad how many people die with the gun, what actually causes someone to flip over the edge. Is it video games, poverty, mental issues or what ? Mind you its not just USA that has these issues,look at Norway and the evil shooter that killed all those kids or Dunblane here.
If this doesn't make people sit up and take action then I sure has hell have no idea what will.What has the world become where one needs a gun in your trousers just to "protect".
I'm not a church goer but Ive prayed all weekend for the families who have lost loved ones and its so wrong that all these folk were doing was watching a movie. Anyone who has a gun I think now needs to take a long hard look in the mirror and ask themselves ...why.

Broncos #20

The List:
#1 Manchester United ($2.23 billion)
#2 Real Madrid ($1.88 billion)
#3 New York Yankees ($1.85 billion)
#3 Dallas Cowboys ($1.85 billion)
#5 Washington Redskins ($1.56 billion)
#6 Los Angeles Dodgers ($1.4 billion)
#6 New England Patriots ($1.4 billion)
#8 Barcelona ($1.31 billion)
#9 New York Giants ($1.3 billion)
#10 Arsenal ($1.29 billion)


The above is the top ten richest sports teams in the world according to http://www.forbes.com/sites/kurtbadenhausen/2012/07/16/manchester-united-tops-the-worlds-50-most-valuable-sports-teams/

Broncos are number twenty Valued at $1.05 Billion, the Broncos are 20th most valuable franchise in the and the 12th most valuable franchise in the NFL.
Only the Cowboys(4), Redskins(5), Patriots(7), Giants(9), Jets(12), Texans(13), Eagles(14), Bears(16), Packers(17), Ravens(18) and Colts(19) came in ahead of Denver.

I'm surprised that Man U are still number one and that theres no Chelsea or Man city in the top 10.I'm also surprised that there are 10 NFL teams in the top 20.

No mention of rovers and venkys ,I'm shocked ..not.

Who Do You Think You Are Kidding Mr Venky

Hands up or like at the bottom of this post if you remember or have seen the old Dad's Army theme tune! It went along the lines of " Who do you think you are kidding Mr Hitler?" It was aimed at Adolf's propaganda machine which was telling one thing when everyone else was seeing and knowing something else.
Well it most certainly compares to the crazy folk who have the keys to Ewood.They seem to have sacked everyone from the club and left the insane numb nuts in charge of the team .How on Earth this can happen is quite frankly a sham. Not only does he not have any feeling in his thick skin ,he doesn't even have the self respect that any "normal" man worth his salt has.If he had, after the abuse hurled (deservedly) at him for being the WORST ever Rovers manager then he would have walked away ,knowing he was out of his depth. He is like the Hitler propaganda machine as he doesn't have the guts to hold his hand up and say to the fans ,hey sorry I cocked up.
Then the Lunes From Pune hire a failed Malaysian footballer who by all accounts makes Lawro look like a good pundit.He wrote a few weeks ago Kean must go ,if I remember right  HE wanted Gerrard as a full back. Bloody nora he isn't even a Rovers fan he is a self confessed Spurs fan. He comes in and first thing he says as a GLOBAL ADVISER ..( no you read it right..whats that I hear people ask...I AIN'T GOT A CLUCKING CLUE (its a made up job)) is everyone starts with a clean slate. Well Shabby I have news for you ,IT DOESN'T WASH WITH FANS PAL!!!! How anyone can give numb nuts a fresh starts when its apparent what every ,no nearly every fan ,wants is the lying ,useless pillock booting not only out of Blackburn but all the way back up to his Glasgow "mates". I wouldn't trust the Shabby guy as far as I can throw him.
We ,I wish I could stop saying we, as I don't want associating with the toe rags in charge. They have given power to two flaming Nobbers ,Agnew and  Shaw. Shaw is a snivelling Del Boy by all accounts and Agnew is a Kean loving brainwashed puppet. He actually blamed us fans for the relegation last season and not Kean.
I thought the days of fan v fan had gone but the owners propaganda machine has gone into overdrive and you only need to look on facebook and the "happy clapping Venky squadron " are out in full force.I read somewhere the other day they have re cooped something like 46m and spent 22mish .This week we have signed two more players who ranked high on Barry White Venkys fifa 08.Both are 35 and signed two year  deals ..HOW DOES SALGADO FEEL. They have brought in Best for nearly 4 million and I wouldn't be surprised if someone convinced the owd battle axe its actually Georgie Best.As for the picture of him and numb nuts smiling nearly flipped me over the edge. Yet the gullible happy clappers are in the belief, either throw gross stupidity or foolishness that the V's are spending money from the Venky purse..LOOK I WILL SAY THIS ONCE ...THEY ARE NOT!!
Now they gob from the Propaganda machine that no ones leaving....HAHAHA
WHO DO YOU THINK YOU ARE KIDDING MR VENKY!!!!


Capt Mannering had it right.
