Don't know where this should go but I just liked the way he stuns the BBC presenters.
I wish I could have tapped the rest of the program as they were totally caught off guard and uneasy throughout the program.
They where asking people on the street about the release of the Libyan Lockerbie bomber and then went back to the studio and guest ....

Instead of asking the people on the street they should have been asking the hundreds of people who had their family members murdered by that man.

sorry, but The One show is awful. They are always making tenuous links, like going from a funny story about Otters to a story on the rise in breast
cancer, the poor guest has to sit there and give their opinion on the issue. watch the channel 4 news instead.

i love it and couldnt agree more.

I would be very disturbed to live in a country where Sandler's statement was considered over the top. When populations lose their moral bearings,
such as passing out candy in celebration of the 9-11 attacks, cheering "freedom fighters" that target school buses and civilian soft targets, and
defend people who actually announce their purpose to destroy the host society, I find I have nothing to say. Communication with these people is
totally pointless. When their metros and busses explode again, I would just remind them of their "compassion". Any society that no longer feels
the need to defend itself against external enemies deserves its eventual fate.

What Sandler said was what most of America is saying but are they in possession of all the facts? Over here in the UK at least we question decisions
like this. . . In America they just tend to go along with what their government says. Their news stations, Fox, CNN,ABC, etc are so good at spinning a
tale and manipulating the American people. You've only got to look at how they have scared the people out of wanting a health care system to see how
Americans can be told what to think and do. . .

I wish the guy was dead too, and that isn't a "Mickey Mouse" remark. Thank god I live in America where I can still offend people with my
speech!
I thought the hosts were going to "wee" themselves when Sandler said that.

And I care about a celebrities opinion about an obvious injustice because?..

reply to post by Mintwithahole.
This isn't the place for a health care debate, but 47 million Americans are either not covered by health insurance or "undercovered". That is
roughly 16% of the American population. Some Americans don't see the future in wrecking the economy for 16% of the population.
As to the real subject, the American system works this way: if a person is convicted of a crime in a legitimate court, he is guilty unless an appeal
reverses the court's decision. It matters not if all the newspapers, TV "journalists" etc., think him to be innocent. If the jury finds him
guilty, it generally takes new evidence presented to the court to lift the conviction. In the US, public opinion in favor of a convicted felon has no
effect on the court, or at least should not.
