The post that was quoted here has been removedAhhh! I checked out the Urban Dictionary and i must say i do resemble all 13 definitions. However the urban dictionary uses slang words which aren't even accepted in the game of scrabble. I only go by the King's Language Dictionary. Yeah, that's the ticket! Can't wait to tell my ahole neighbor he's a BRAT. Now go take the fister's arm out of his as.

Originally posted by smw6869Where did you get that from? 😕 According to the Oxford dictionary, "prate" is a verb meaning "talk foolishly or at tedious length". "Prat" is spelt "prat" and means "1 Brit. an incompetent or stupid person. 2 a person’s bottom."
Hmmmmmm! It would appear that the Oxford Dictionary also has it spelled as PRATE.

Will this help ?
"A strong body makes the mind strong, As to the species of exercise, i would advise the gun. While this gives a moderate exercise to the body, it gives boldness, enterprise and independence to the mind. Games played with the ball, and others of that nature, are too violent for the body and stamp no character on the mind. Let your gun therefore be the constant companion of your walks"
How can anyone dispute this?
Originally posted by smw6869Seriously, why are backing water on your initial idiotic statement "Guns are illegal and you still have all that crime? Should they not ban crime?"
I've always heard that it was very difficult to own a gun in Britian. Excepy for maybe trap or skeet shooting.
"Guns are illegal" implies that everybody in England who owns a gun is committing a crime. Now, "you've always heard that it's difficult"? When attempting to poke fun at people, facts are always irrelevant, eh? BTW: You're still wrong.
Seriously, after another few years in school, you may not be such a little clown.

Tell me , under what circumstances a British citizen may own a gun? I win, you lose. Go back to school old man.
