,Will , is good sport but it is still prejudice often fed by ignorance.

Gosh. We don't need any of that here, thanks.

Not a mention of this on the BBC news tonight. Of course, any one of those
events in the USA would have the BBC news full of it. Aren't we part of
Europe these days? I just do not understand the BBC's obsession with
America.

You have a good point but have grossly overstated it. Events of
that severity are commonplace in the USA in all seasons and never make
the news here.
