Dictators who positively go out of their way to force misery, tears and fears, upon their countryman's lives.
Politicians who, in dealing with dictators, have a wishbone where a backbone should be.
Gay marriage and marijuana being legalized on the same day in Carlifornia. USA.

Leviticus 20:13 “If a man lays with another man he should be stoned.”

Is it just possible we got it wrong all these years. !!!
 
I don't mind jokes about diabetes provided they are not nastily intended.
What does pee me off is the fact that I am 40% deaf in both ears being deemed to be a subject for glaces skywards, amusement, and mirth by some ignorant people.
I can't understand it. They wouldn't laugh about someone being blind, so why is deafness a subject for laughter.
I guess it is just ignorance.
I'm planning to create a T-shirt with a huge ear on the front and a slogan saying:-
"Yes, I am somewhat deaf .... and No, it's NOT ****ing funny !"

Hi,Trevorden,
You have made a very good point and I have a similar thing with my mild dyslexia ( nothing as bad as what you have put up with).
Nevertheless I do laugh at things without knowing how offensive it can be to others.
The Tshirt is a good idea but maybe not the ****ing.
Trying to be clever with Wee Willies thread."Best not throw stones in glass houses"

All the best,
Roy,

My dad was 100% deaf in one ear 75% in the other and people did find it funny at times, specially he's dart team members, they found they didn't find it so funny when I threateneds to rip there heads off, a weird story but I used to worry about him with he's deteriorating hearing, he died 4 yrs ago and I sometimes catch myself worrying about hes hearing, I don't think he cares now lol, he always used to say that at least he couldn't hear my mum nagging him
