Organ WelshmanThank you it was intentional, though not to offend. As Ricky Jervais said , just because you are offended doesn't mean you are right. Regarding the accident, I am truly shocked ( surprised, bewildered) that in 2025 a 16 year old does not know the danger of the electric lines which power the railway and furthermore is climbing over them to take a selfie at 4am, the middle of the night. The obvious question has to be why. Mentally unstable, drink, drugs, whatever it is this behaviour is not normal, even for a teenager.
Organ WelshmanI like people like you who get direct to the point. Alternatively, you could try to be a bit more subtle. Whatever.
Tranq, I find your use of the word current in your text quite offensive given the nature of the incident!
tranq tranquerIndeed, some may.
Richard PearsonI know that like me you use irony and sarcasm but some will consider that comment tripping the switch of indignation in the current climate .
