No Kyle of course I don’t walk into a fundraiser for a breast cancer charity and say that. But then they are not suggesting that just breast cancer sufferers matter and not mounting mass protests in support of their cause or creating vast disruption and damage as the Black Lives Matter people have. ...

I have an interest in this airfield and live right next to it. Now used for a skydiving school on a few days per week.
