So do I .
What is the matter with people have they no sense of what of right ?
A young woman has lost her life in horrific circumstances .
And that goes for the cheap jokes on the Oscar Pistorius thread too.
Another young woman dead and jerks make jokes about it.

Life goes on Muddy, but the media must take some of the blame for the desensitisation concerning tragic circumstances as these. We are bombarded daily with death and destruction, sometimes in graphic detail, the public grow hardened to such events and look for an escape, they sometimes find it in humour.20-06-2016, 10:17 AM

The country is voting on Thursday over something which is going to effect how our country will be governed for many a decade.
Perhaps forever.
Tragic though this is, I would find it rather pathetic if anyone votes to stay based on that one event.
But if you do, then this sort of thing will happen more and more if we continue to allow mass immigration.
Particularly as Turkey and others are coming down the line towards us.

I have to say that my reaction to the news of this lady's death, was sympathy for her husband and children, but it did cross my mind that it may have an effect on the referendum vote. I hope it doesn't because an obviously mental murderer, taking the life of a young wife and mother, has no bearing on whether we stay in or out.

I don't mind admitting I am going to vote leave. i want to be able to vote for those in government over here instead of having no vote in the EEC.France and Germany in particular are afraid that if we leave they will have to start milking financially another country instead.
I believe it is not a good idea to put all your eggs in one basket which is what the EEC is trying to do . the Euro is dropping in value so fast it won't be worth anything in a few years time.
https://www.theguardian.com/business...value-analysts
Extract from link
quote " The euro slipped to $1.0599 on Wednesday, below $1.06 for the first time since April 2003. In total, the euro has lost 35% of its value since last May." unquote
That is why they are desperate for us to stay in so we can support their currency

Nobody is 'turning' the murder into a politicial event. It was a political event. She was murdered because of who she was and what she said and believed. It wasn't the Leave campaign that killed her, it was someone who was disturbed by the hate campaigns used to convince people like him that if we stay in the EU we will be overrun by savages. The language used by many on the Leave side, including the disgusting UKIP brigade is aimed at those of low intelligence to frighten them into voting to leave. Deliberate incitement to hatred of 'the other' and fear of being swamped by them is the political strategy of the far right and always has been. Mainly because it works. As many posts on these threads prove.21-06-2016, 07:01 PM

I find the arrogance of the far left in describing those who do not agree with them as being of low intelligence boring.
