TV.JW.Org - WTF is Wrong With This Guy? - CAPTION THEM
by passwordprotected ini've heard about his bombastic, overly patronising, cartoon-ish delivery before, but i'd never actually seen it...until now.
and i should add, this religion bears little to no relation to the one i left 6 years ago.. .

Aren't Watchtower literature trolleys and stands illegal?
by jwfacts inin many places it is illegal to set up a stand and sell things in public without council approval.
so why is it that jws can set up their trolleys in busy public areas without being asked to move on?
i saw this article this morning about muslims being asked to stop handing out leaflets in parramatta, because it is illegal.

Morning commuters at my central London rail terminus are subjected to running the gauntlet in the following order:
1 - Charity collectors - about twice a month there will be a team with buckets for cash donations - always good causes
2 - Brand marketers releasing a new product will do give-away free samples of brekafast bars etc - popular with most people grabbing freebies
3 - Free morning newspapers being handed out - ignore
4 - Authorised homeless man selling Big Issue magazine - ignore
5 - various unauthorised beggars - ignore
6 - JW's with cart - ignore
They are just another annoying obstacle which most people are visually filtering - it might be different at quieter locations - in Central London 99.99% of people stream past them without a glance.

@punkofnice - there is a difference between 'no punches pulled' and asserting baseless nonsense - those type of comments just feed the JW persecution complex and are the opposite of helpful to our position.
PS - none of my immediate family talk with me either.
Lets discuss over a beer in London one of these days ;-) PM me if up for that,

simon - its perfectly possible to ascertain why people voted the way they did.
You call a bunch of them afterwards and ask them ;-)
http://www.theguardian.com/politics/2014/sep/20/scottish-independence-lord-ashcroft-poll
http://whatscotlandthinks.org/ is also an excellent resource
People voted yes because of self-determination, Westminster politics and whats happening with the NHS
People voted NO because of risk, pensions and the pound.
Independence is a processs, not a referendum date. It has been successfully underway since 1998. It's surprising people are unable to see the bigger picture.

Scotland 'owns' about 85% of UK North Sea oil by geography and yet is allocated only 8% of it on a per capita basis.
If oil revenue was allocated by geography Scotland would be a slight net contributor to the UK pot.
Of course Londoners also receive +24% subsidy compared to the rest of England, but you don't hear so much about that...

interesting article dozy - I'm not in scotland as you know so don't have any idea really what the mood on the street is - I guess YMMV as usual.
the author does speculate on what would have happened following a YES vote, and for me thats entirely the problem - speculation.
what we can observe now is how the NO vote will work out.
