What annoys you?

Stephanie,

Next time you call the police because of hoodlums outside of your home tell them that you are not calling to complain but to give them full warning if they are not out there within an hour you are going to shoot one of them. Maybe that'll light a fire under them. LOL!

I know they will from experience Diana! When I was 8 months pregnant with my 3rd child we had some problems and my husband worked nights then. I phoned the police twice and in the end I knocked the window. The youths then tried to kick down the front door! I contacted my husband who came back and rounded up the youths with our neighbour and sat them on the front drive. I rang the police and said what had happened and they came in 2 minutes ready to arrest my husband (luckily they didn't in the end)! Seriously though I found out the next day at a scan that I had problems and I could have haemorraged if I had gone into labour and also my 5 year old struggled to sleep for a montth he was so frightened by the experience. I live in a lovely place by the Nature Reserve and I do love it here but occasionally we suffer for the location.

Jason - that must've been awful! We are all suffering for being law abiding citizens!

Jason, this is truly shocking, but of course, not surprising. Not because I don't have faith in the police force (are we allowed to call it that any more?) but because our country is ruled by it's foreign inhabitants. Even our police have to be careful what they say and to whom, just in case it is taken as a racial slur.

We daren't look sideways at anyone anymore for fear of being labeled racist.

And Stephanie, it is the same with out youth. They are getting so out of hand that again, even the police have to be careful around them.

I am so glad that you did not suffer any more than you had too, but saddened that your little girl was so affected by it. Bless her!

It's a sly old world where bad is good, and good is bad.

The other day on my way home from work, a man in a pick up cut me off and before I had a chance to react HE flipped me a bird.  I was upset but realized that anything I could do would only aggravate him more so I just said a prayer to calm myself down and continued along my way.  A few miles down the road he turned off and then flipped me another bird!  I was mildly shocked!  And then I thought, how sad, he must carry around a lot of rage that he just directs to anyone in his path.  What a poor miserable man, and what a poor miserable way to live.

Jason, where I come from we drive 'round with a shot gun in the back window of the the truck for a reason! 

 i might have had a little trouble explaining that one over here!!!  even looking at someone aggresively is not allowed here!!! we live in a nanny state!!!
