Brit MPs at risk of suicide

According to this Brit online news service, some Brit MPs (why do they refer to their politicians as military policemen?  :lol:  ) who've been caught with their hand in the till are near suicide, and it would seem that those who haven't been implicated yet are very, very, worried.

To which I respond with:  =D =D =D

If only OUR crooked politicans and tax cheats could be made to feel the same stress . . .

I'm conflicted.
 
My dislike of cats is less than my dislike of politicians.
 
But just exactly how much less is the question.
 
I could be talked into more cats existing - it would not take much.
 
stay safe.

If cowardly and dishonorable men sometimes shoot unarmed men with army pistols or guns, the evil must be prevented by the penitentiary and gallows, and not by a general deprivation of a constitutional privilege.

Hey you kids!! Get off my lawn!!!

They keep making this eternal vigilance thing harder and harder.  Protecting the 2nd amendment is like playing PACMAN - there's no pause button so you can go to the bathroom.

Well boo-hoo, I've recently learned that one such cretin was using our (my) tax-pounds to pay for his swimming pool, and another to pay off their mortgage.

To Hell with them.
