Bang goes any sense for kids
LIKE many people, I find it hard to hear the name
Ryanair without launching into a ten-minute rant. The cancelled and delayed flights, the legroom, the relentless cost cutting. And that thing they do where the price goes up before your eyes? Don’t even get me started.
So Ryanair:
Britain’s Most Hated Airline on C5 on Thursday was both fascinating and infuriating. It told the story of the airline, recently voted worst short-haul carrier for the sixth year running by Which? speaking to pilots, former employees, rival airline workers and experts.
Presenter Fiona Phillips met riled passengers too.
Bet they weren’t hard to find. WITHIN two minutes of tuning in to Teachers Training to Kill, I was feeling horrified and bewildered. But mostly I was outraged. another narrowly missed his liver and spine. He says: “I heard the shots before I felt it. Then I realised I couldn’t run.”
The carnage at Madison High in Ohio has been just one of dozens of school shootings in America every year.
In a radical and unbelievably insane response, summer camps have been set up in the county to train teachers to kill.
Hit
If a child hit someone with a stick, would you give everyone else sticks?
Or just take away the stick?
Teachers on the Faster training programme looked out of their comfort zone. I certainly wouldn’t trust them with a loaded weapon after a three-day course.
Special needs teacher Lynne was asked if she’d given any thought to the possibility of shooting a child.
“Not much,” she said, as if deciding what to have for breakfast.
Idiot Faster lawyer Sean Maloney said: “If someone walks into the classroom and is murdering your babies, why wouldn’t you want your teacher to also have a firearm to be able to stop that threat?”
Or here’s an idea, why not ban guns altogether and get rid of the threat?
In the UK we banned handguns after the 1996 Dunblane tragedy and haven’t had a school shooting since.
The real villain was the caricature of a man Sheriff Richard K Jones, who has been pressuring schools to arm teachers.
Rocking up on his motorbike, with a punchable smirk and cowboy hat, he reminded me of Stinky Pete from Toy Story. “He thinks he’s the f***ing love child of Trump and John Wayne,” said Marty, in the single best put-down in the history of documentaries.
Marty and Cooper, who has forgiven Hancock, spoke the only real sense.
“In a world where facts don’t matter, arming teachers is perfect,” said Cooper.
America needs to wake up and realise teachers are there to educate kids, not gun them down. SCIENTIST
