Just interested, and apologies if you've answered this elsewhere, but can
you honestly say that you NEVER watch any of BBCs output?

Cheers,

Chris.




I certainly do watch some BBC programmes:

- This Week (BBC DUMB).
- occasionally Newsnight (BBC TWO) when I'm in a current affairs mood and
there is geo-political news.
- The Sky at Night (BBC DUMB) - the only intellectual science programme on
the BBC.
- occasionally Working Lunch for the stock market reports (BBC TWO).
- crap films late at night perhaps once per week or per two weeks (BBC
DUMB).


I do not however consider the benefit of these programmes is worth £133.50
of my cash, and would rather deal with the "criminal justice system"
instead.

This valuation is called "competive market value" which is a term Michael
Grade and Mark Thompson are very familliar with. I am merely applying my
treatment of the BBC in exactly the same way the BBC says its employees and
leaders are to be remunerated.

I note that the public works I do as an elected officer, I do so without
payment, voluntarily, and merely for the good of my community.


If the BBC would like a payment of say £10 for the above list, I might
consider paying for it.

However, as discussed, I am not buying "The Sky at Night" and paying for all
the **** / ****s attached to the deal.

A hypothetical question for you .....

If johnny scumbag terrorist was to target the bbc would you .....

(A) - Say nothing and secretly support the terrorists

(B) - Say you dont like the bbc but no need for that

(C) - Say well done johnny scumbag

(D) - None of the above


A tricky question as some would say the bbc are terrorists themselves as
intimidation and force is used to extract what they demand .

I am not in favour of violence nor do I need violence to solve my problems
(however I will use violence to defend the innocent if required).

Why would one know that Jonny scumbag was allegedly to target the BBC?

Not moving in New-IRA or Al Quaida circles one would not know.

In any event, one's duty if one sore criminality, real criminality that is,
about to take place is to report it to the lawful authorities, and possibly
intervene if necessary and acutely time critical.



There is no doubt that the BBC uses state authority to enforce its "empire"
on women and children using threats, intimidation, and coercion. The BBC
could be classed as sanitized terrorists, but of course they are the servant
of the state/establishment/government, and our state has always worked this
way (The British India Company for example, China Tea, Slavery, etc).



At least I'm part of the solution, not the problem.

What a load of Pollux. Don't you think other self-opinionated loonies have
tried that on before? I had a conversation recently with an acquaintance who
thought he didn't use his car enough to warrant renewing his road tax, and
was as safe as houses on the road so didn't need car insurance either.

He was dealt with by the local magistrates and was fined and disqualified.
Funnily enough they wouldn't accept his argument and they won't accept yours
either. One prosecution every eight years just about should cover it;
although I suspect once they've started with you they will be back for more
every year until you take you head out of your ass.

On the news the other week their was a tape recoring played of two
terrorists talking to each other .

From what i could gather , Part of deciding what to do and perhaps to
get on the terrorist league table the number of people their terrorist
action would affect is like some sort of status symbol to them .

IMS one of them said if they killed 100,000 people then their action
would affect well over 1,000,000 people if you include the victims
family/cousins/neightbours etc .

In the same way as some top cop in london said years ago it wasnt a
matter of 'if' london was going to get hit it was a matter of 'when' .

Then using that as some sort of twisted guideline - then isnt it more or
less the same thing and its just a matter on when for the bbc as x
number of millions would be affected .

Dont mean the actual bbc employees - but to target the transmitter masts
or uplink dishes or whatever way output is distributed .

I wouldn't care in the slightest, for I'm not charging £18M for running a
chat-show and radio show.

As opposed to "self-opinionated loonies" who get given slots on the BBC's
many TV shows.


Bad analogy. For where as most people do not drive their cars only inside
their private homes, I neither drive my TV set down public highways nor
within eyesight of officials. My bicycle is indeed untaxed and uninsured as
well as free to park.



Let the justice system take its course.

You might think a way to run a business / corporation is through the courts.

I happen to think the way you run a successful business / corporation is by,
sorry to be simplistic, "giving the customer what they want" and by what
"sells".

Is "one sore criminality" when someone only injures one person once?
