What i find outrageous is not just there pettiness in this case but the fact that McDonalds profits are up by a quarter. Profiting from recession as low income families are driven into buying McDonalds crap because it's cheaper than real food and in doing so they are risking there health as McDonalds junk food is the last thing you want to eat if your health is any concern to you.

What is interesting to me here is it appears ancient mankind could well have been what is classed 'pure evil' nowadays. Even if they had to spit-roast their fellow humans for survival it still shows the extend to what mankind is capable of at any point in it's evolutionary timeline.

Incredible how these reprimands occur nowadays. When i was at private school i had a chalk duster thrown at my head which knocked me out, i was locked in a gas chamber where the teacher then sucked out the air. I was regularly clipped round the earhole and given the hairbrush on the backside. That was only 20 years ago but today would be classed as abuse. Looking at events like the one in the article below those teachers could have done time for their actions. In my day grassing on a pupil or teacher was just something you did not do, unless you wanted to lose any respect you had in the heirachy of the system which was essential for survival in that system.

This is yet another one of those stories about regulation and political correctness. The store bodycare banning staff from wearing poppies, what a bunch of idiots... When it comes to the sacrifice made by our country in war, it is sacred. Wearing a poppy is a symbol of remembrance for those who have fallen in the face of tyranny whilst performing their duty to their country. The money raised from the poppies goes to help soldiers past and present and their families.
