    Picture the scene...

    I'm walking down the road near my house, it's quite busy with traffic, but not many other pedestrians. I sensed danger.

    Appraoching a parked car a small child of about 4 or 5 stops to wait for his mother to arrive with the keys. He's holding a playstation game... Lego Star Wars, in one hand. As I pass by his other hand swings wildly toward me. Luckily I had the cat like reflexes to avoid his punch and escape the scene as his mother chastised him. Others may not have been so lucky.

    Should I inform the daily mail about this? He was holding a VIDEO GAME!

    You should've shot him in the face, took his video game and had sex with his mother. Thats what Trent would do.

    So the Daily Hate is still sold in Ireland? Huh. Beeb got it wrong recently, reporter at the Boyzone funeral said it wasn't sold in Ireland & therefore, there wasn't much furore over that infamous article.

    I thought it an odd thing to say - apparently they're not aware of the internet in Ireland?

    Were you anywhere near a headshop when the attack happened? Did you get the impression the child was just after leaving a headshop?

    you should report this to every available idiodic person who has never played video games but like to say they cause people to go on shooting sprees....

    hopfully in 20 30 years theyll all be dead and people who grew up playing games will be in politics.

    then we can invade are neighbour,(we just got to save it before so we can re start if we fail)
