    I thought he had already done community service when he done the ballistic testing!

    I can see this murderer walking with no justice for the poor girl,s family - after them being forced to sit through all those bullshit references from various people. At the end of the day, he,s a nutjob who likes to play with guns that give him power.

    Through either nastiness or stupidity he has taken someone's life, and should be given the same punishment as a non-celebrity could expect...not just 'grounded' for a while.

    It was murder, where's the death penalty?

    Bottom line is, he shot a defenceless beautiful, intelligent young woman. Someone's daughter.

    If it was my daughter and he didn't get a custodial sentence, I would feel that he'd cheated justice

    No matter what the sentence is, one of the sides will appeal.

    New evidence has been found outside Pistorius's home that completely acquits him of his girlfriend's murder. Footprints.

    He was not convicted of murder, he was convicted of culpable homicide.

    This is worth the read to put your minds straight on what he was actually accused of and the judgement.

    http://citizen.co.za/wp-content/uplo...OPJudgment.pdf

    For what it's worth, I love to shoot guns too. I am an enthusiast. Be it at targets or at vermin or carrion. I shoot also in the Philippines with the police locally, with the Mayor and security guards in the next town and on private land. We have a gun at home and it would be used if my family are in imminent danger.

    The guns look cool but should everyone be drinking beer?

    That's why so many people in the Philippines are 'accidentally' shot

    The men in the photo are the local provincial police. They spend much of their time on missions up in the mountains near us trying to catch illegal loggers and drug smugglers. They had just come back from a week hike and came to visit us. They carry the weapons with them all the time. It's nice to have these friends, and weapons used correctly are not a danger to anyone.

    Not sure if I like the observation of my wife's cooking looking like sewage, or the fact that I can enjoy a beer with my friends. I don't need to defend myself here as I think you know where I stand on guns but more rude observations are not called for thanks. Just because some here do not like to enjoy the differences in our chosen partner's culture does not mean we need to insult it. I say no more.

    Not sure where you're coming from Steve all the comments were lighthearted banter.

    To be fair Les, I'd be fairly if someone had compared food on my table to raw sewerage without a , or at the end of the sentence.

    Which it did have

    Philippine food is well-known for being colourless compared to other Southeast Asian countries. I was commenting on the colour, regardless of who cooked it. It's the standard colour for Filipino food.

    You only have to compare a Philippine menu of the traditional foods http://i51.tinypic.com/wbqxdy.jpg with a Malaysian one. https://josephinemock.files.wordpres...916-184003.jpg

    I love a lot of Malay and Chinese food, but Philippine food can be bland, and very salty. There is also not a lot of taste difference between some of the traditional meals.

    Me too! Just fancied some - first few spoonfuls were great then it got sickly. The memory is not as good as reality. Had Vesta chow mein too!
