    ...why am I not surprised?

    Doubt it. Obviously, I didn't regard it worthy of an answer. Draw your own conclusion.

    How would this have worked in America?

    URL at the bottom. Here's a summary: Guy in the UK posts a picture on Facebook. It's of a military action figure similar to GI Joe & his Alsatian dog. He posts it because the action figure resembles him, and he has an Alsatian. In the background is a toy mortar launcher. That it's a toy is...

    · A comma would be appropriate after the word question; · You misspelled grammar, after it's been corrected several times; · It's "if you're capable."

    How about we discuss expediting, and do so in a manner that suggests we are literate and weren't raised in the woods by bears?

    Sheriffs' assurances of protection may not mean much

    Excerpt from http://www.activistpost.com/2013/02/sheriffs-prepare-to-abandon-citizens-to.html : Matthews has been quoted saying 'I’m not going to take your guns' but he did not tell the people he will instead stand by and watch as federal agents seize weapons. In fact if a citizen was to refuse...

    My post doesn't contain a question. "I wonder if..." is a statement, after which a period is appropriate.

    It was euphemized cursing. I'm told some take offense to even euphemisms.

    Minor stuff, I let pass, but when we're talking about stuff you learn in the first em-first grade, and here we are, adults...can't tolerate it. We wonder why we can't compete globally. Fred Reed wrote a column about someone meeting a girl in her college dorm room. The girl had a Chinese...

    My use was correct. "Ahem" wasn't a word, per se, but a sound effect. But when I do make a mistake, I appreciate it being pointed out.

    Doesn't take an English degree, just an education through at least the first grade. Ahem...it's grammar.

    Reserve soldier gets pushy, cop slaps him down

    Punched him in the face? I don't think that's at all what he did. The camera is moving around so much, it's hard to say. But I don't think there was an actual punch. He just took him down. And it wasn't the same thing. The kid made physical contract, which is definitely over the line. Definitely...

    This part is probably true, but the kid did make that wrong move.

    Reserve soldier gets pushy, cop slaps him down

    I don't think he did. But even if he did, it was in response to the kid's actions. If you're being belligerent and/or disorderly, and a cop objects and takes a step toward you, the appropriate response is to stop what you're doing. If you aren't doing anything wrong, don't stop what you're...

    Reserve soldier gets pushy, cop slaps him down

    I think an arrest could have been made and charges laid, but the kid seemed to learn his lesson and won't do that again. So either way works.

    Reserve soldier gets pushy, cop slaps him down

    No, wait. There was no sucker punch, at least not one indicated on tape. The cop is under no obligation to announce, "PREPARE TO DEFEND YOURSELF, SIR! MARQUIS OF QUEENSBURY RULES, OF COURSE." GI Joe needed to be taken down, and down he went. And the Marine/Army thing only became an issue after...

    US Postal Service Ends Saturday Delivery in August

    75 years is the standard for all government agencies. Nothing new here.

    Reserve soldier gets pushy, cop slaps him down

    Yes, you're right on that point. It smacked of one-upsmanship.
