Is this bloody Lemming week? ::)

An investigation has been launched into the death of a man who was hit by a van as he ran across a motorway, The Independent Police Complaints Commission (IPCC) said.

He died on a road leading to the Dartford Tunnel.

An IPCC spokesman said: "At 5am this morning a young man was killed on the tunnel approach road, A282 (M25) near Bow Arrow Lane, Dartford."

I don't know for sure, but I would guess that this was an illegal immigrant - I've seen a number walking along the M25, up as far as Clacket Lane - one down, 4,998,876 to go...

Seems he was being questioned by police shortly before.

"'Scuse officer, where please is London?"

"You sound like an illegal immigrant... too bloody polite to be native.  Where you from then?"

"Sorry officer, I no unnerstan."

"Well you'd better run along then before I arrest you."

"Wow! me gone!"

More lunacy and waste of a young life:

http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/wales/north_west/7065208.stm

This time though, the parent IS responsible, by virtue of the fact that he was there, and forcing his young son to be doing something he shouldn't have been doing.....walking/scrambling on an extremely dangerous ridge in shite weather.
Breath taking irresponsibility. noooo:

...and: http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/wales/north_west/6975634.stm

Give me strength. noooo:


I've been up there and witnessed some of these total utter dorks, wandering around as if they are simply out on walk around the local designer outlet village. Tits. At the very least, they should be fined AND made to pay for the rescue sevices to get their fat stupid arses, which is where they obviously keep their brains, off the mountain.

They'll no doubt go home crowing about their little adventure, claiming hero status for their 'bravery' for being up there totally unequipped in the first place. Arsewipes. evil:

Not being really very fond of foul weather I tend to avoid mountains.

But, in this era of mollycoddling and insulation from danger and access to instant help 24/7 most people seem to be completely unaware that the weather is going to be, in any way, different at the top of a mountain than it is at the bottom.

One bloke actually said he expected it to be fine because "I live in a 20th floor flat and it's always fine up there."  No. the windows didn't open  confused:

Seems to me that these idiots should be required to check a walk plan in before going up and if they fail to pass muster on dress and equipment, then go home or sign a form certifying that you are on your own when you get into trouble.

And, of course a next of kin contact.

Can we all agree then, that people who get themselves killed through their own stupidity deserve no sympathy?

And I'm including Princess Di in this!

Absolutely! 

And as danger continually gets pushed steadily further away we, as a race, will get progressively more stupid until we qualify to be re-named 'Lemmings'.
