    Should the UK pay reparations to the Jamaica?

    I'll start with saying, NO - its too complicated, who exactly owes who. Unless we can find slave owners and their inherited wealth of today. But even then we would need reparations for the practical slavery of the working classes of the UK at the time. Do the UK Jamaicans pay? Do the decendents...

    So if we sold Gibralter to the Morrocans (imagining that was even possible) - the Spanish then have no claim? Or we have had a referendum and 98% wanted the status quo of being GB.

    You really are a sensitive bunch. Not so sensitive not to continue to kill in cold blood some of your imprisoned, fellow citizens, but sensitive never the less. Maybe if you don't like people sarcastically commenting on your death penalty stats, you could suppress them like China or N Korea?

    A little dig in the ribs with the facts - that's all. US keeps odd bedfellows on this subject. That's all he said? And they do. Somehow it seems he needs to either not say it, or pad it out a little? I have no idea why? He not welcoming a Chinese delegation and musn't mention Tibet or...

    I didn't see it that way. Even if it was, just agree with the policy or disagree to disarm it.

    And how rediculous would it be if you started a thread on any of those topics for a Brit to reply - yeh - but what about the US's death penalty? Teeth - http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/magazine-32883893 Hooliganism - largely history. Nobility - Moi? Bushes Bitch - we'd mostly agree. India - again we...

    Nelson Mandela - Activist / Pacifist / Terrorist

    I don't suppose there's many americans who claim the right to bear arms is protection in case of a overriding malicious government, but at the same time deride Nelson Mandelas early support of a sabotage campaign against his malicious government. That would be stoopid?!
