  America Mass Shooting: 10/1/2015

  by adjusted knowledge in

  since this will be the norm in america, perhaps we should put a date on each of these topics.

  can't really put school mass shooting because too many to choose from.

  I hope people realised that previous post was tongue-in-cheek.

  I live in a fairly rural area in the UK, we have a lot of shot guns here, for peasant errrmm I mean pheasant shooting, they are not carried openly and it is very difficult to use them in a killing spree as you have to reload the cartridge after the cartridge (or 2 if double barrelled) has been discharged.

  As Simon pointed out we had a few spree shootings (probably averaging out at 1 per decade) over the last few decades. Two that spring to mind were Dunblain and one quite local to me in Hungerford (a gun nut called Michael Ryan), these resulted in tighter gun control measures which have resulted in an even lower incidence of gun crime.

  Bottom line - more guns do not correlate to increased personal safety.

  i am still serving as an elder but just hanging in there.

  i think their quandry is that they don't see me out in the field, but when they need encouragement and decent prayer they come to me.. i just got off the phone to this poor sister who i have only met twice.

  she is not even in my congregation (her sister is).

  Why doesn't the UK have more spree killings like this? In theory with our lack of guns and no way of protecting ourselves the criminals should be massacring our children every day!

  The UK needs guns to make our country as safe as the USA,

  there is a visitor brother in town and from what ive been told, he has been a missionary for many years and they were having a get together for him.

  i took my mom to that get-together yesterday and stayed for a few minutes.

  i heard a group around a table with the visitor brother talking about how hard it was getting in the world with so many distractions and that many of the brothers were falling into the trap and leaving jehovahs organization.

  definitely something going in the london bethel.. i thought i'd ask them again (and record it again) what the situation was regarding the new britain branch construction work.. i got the same sister (debbie) and here is how the conversation went: .

  me: i've been told that construction of the new branch has been stopped - is this true?.

  debbie: no, it has not ceased, it's carrying on as normal - can i ask where you're calling from?.

  IMO there is nothing sinister about GMO's, this kind of genetic manipulation is just the next step from the phenotypic breeding methods that have been employed for millennia. GM plants can benefit us by providing greater yields per hectare, more robust plants and plants that can produce higher levels of beneficial molecules, such as soluble fibres, than can be found in nature.

  Where I have an issue is when commercial organisations such as Monsanto use bullying tactics in order to protect their patents and sell their brand of poison along with the seeds or even worse, impregnate their GM seeds with their toxic cocktails.

  I think the world should just grow Avena sativa - there are no GMO oats.

  Huge project, poor planning, poor choices, volunteer workers, what could possibly go wrong?

  With Jehovah's Holy Spirit anything is possible......
