Are you mad, the stupid American is as daft as a brush.

[Rhodes]

Well I much prefer his banter to Loosely's

[cup of tea]

Whatever the truth of the matter, she's not a heroine.

Well if appears there is nothing left to debate. Loose has decided that if he can't win the debate he will quit. No skin off my back though. I just find it funny how so many people on this thread have called me idiot or dumb American. Yet no body really gives any facts to back up their claims about Amanda. Loose has said from the beginning of me posting on this site that just because America does it one way does not make it right. I do understand that, but here are the things he has argued I was wrong on, and in some cases America is wrong.

 

- Homeless eyewitness. Well last time I checked he was a drug addict that his testimony was thrown out.

 

- Raffaele foot print and hand print were in Meredith's room. Both were found to be Rudy's

 

- Amanda's DNA and Meredith's were on the same knife. All DNA evidence has been thrown out. ( I believe I said none of it was handled correctly, and Loose's response was that just cause the good ol USA does if differently that does not make it right. Well I guess I was right.

 

- Meredith's bra clasp had Raffaele's DNA on it. Again not handled properly thrown out. Again Loose said the same thing. Again I was right.

 

You want facts there are some facts. I have not seen one thing anyone has posted that has any evidence to back it up. On top of that I don't recall anyone posting anything that with evidence to prove Amanda is gulity. All of it has been about how dumb I am. Looks like I know what I am talking about. This has always only been about hating America, and finding ways to take that out on me. Oh well if that is what you guys get off to then I feel real sorry for you.

I don't, the American idiot is brain dead, and ignoring him seems to be making him even more stupid.

 

[Rhodes]

Missunderstood - I don't find Brounmoney an idiot or brain dead at all, just the opposite infact, we should be thanking him for getting involved in the debate and giving us an insight into the case from a US perspective

[Ian_W]

Can we try and avoid all the snide comments aimed at each other, please.

 

Thank you

[Rhodes]

Ian - Yes, you're right, we should welcome a new member with open arms rather than ridicule him

[missunderstood]

Can we try and avoid all the snide comments aimed at each other, please.

Was he any relation to Lovejoy ?

Thank you

Thank you, but I am sure it will do no good. Oh and everyone is ignoring me, so this should be stopping anyways.

Rhodes it does not matter what I have to say. They all dislike Americans, and by me saying Amanda was not guilty. It just made them hate me even more. Not that any of them really care what I say about Amanda. This is just a topic they can start to call me names and take out their hate on. Again what they say means nothing to me. They are just some faceless user name on a forum that calls someone they know they will never see face to face names. If this is what they have to do to make themselves happy more power to them.

[Rhodes]

They all dislike Americans

Surely you don't believe that, afterall you saved our bacon during the war didn't you!

[The Mayor Of Simpleton]

Brounmoney, I think you're being a tad sensitive there.

 

I sincerely doubt anybody here hates America.

 

Now, as for Amanda, I can only hope that justice prevails and that if she is covering for her boyfriend that it all comes out.

 

If Amanda is truly innocent, then fair enough, but if guilty she deserves the wrath of hell.

[Loose]

Oh dear, Brounmoney's not playing the xenophobic card is he?

 

Such a shame really that you can't have a decent discussion with a difference of opinions without someone using that strategy, so transparent. I'm afraid this is only one of the reasons I've put him on the Ignore list. 

 

I've known and worked with a number of americans, all decent blokes with a sense of humour and able to have their leg pulled and reciprocate in banter. Obviously Brounmoney isn't like that.

[missunderstood]

Surely you don't believe that, afterall you saved our bacon during the war didn't you!

 

 

Are you sure about that.

 

What the Americans did do was charge us a lot of money at extortionate interest rates for their help. I would imagine a huge percentage of the worlds population really do hate America because of its imperialist policies.

[Eastside Urchin]

Yeah and we would be speaking German without their help,personally I don't mind us paying a bit over the top for the privellage

And we would not be broke, have a decent car and manufacturing industry, have good prospects, have far fewer debts and generally have a much happier life....

 

Mind you we would not have had fawlty towers.
