Yes - tough luck but leaving such things in luggage (assuming this was not hand luggage) is asking for trouble. Similar thing happened to my g/f when we flew from Ezeiza to Santiago de Chile. How do they prove that the theft happened in Ezeiza and not Frankfurt? I would be rather surprised to...

Smiley face missed out first time too - but you miss the point! Questioning authority is one thing. Describing someone as "Some piss ant clerk making minimum wage" is another. That is sheer arrogance. :mad: The questions being asked of the OP are reasonable given the demands that AFIP are...

Pointless asking for evidence of such an off the wall assertion so I will simply ask is someone's car safer the moment it drives over the border into Northern ireland?

Felisa Miceli.was a former Finance Minister of Nestor K who was "found" with a bundle of money in her office and left discredited in 2007 I recall. The whole thing stank. She was less of a puppet than those who followed under the current president who one suspects had something to do with the...

What did you expect them to hand over? a Christmas Card? Just another ritual in empty "K diplomacy"

Ha ha ha not difficult at all to decide on this one ..... Travel chaos as flooding hampers Christmas getaway Travellers heading off for Christmas face further misery as rail services across UK are cancelled due to heavy rain and flooding...

I don't need 15 reasons I have just one. Good enough for me. She is.

Opinions differ on the causes of the Summer 2011 UK riots - but unlike Argentina there is/was no suggestion of a "Political" element from the Right http://www.telegraph.co.uk/news/uknews/law-and-order/9453633/The-2011-English-summer-riots-revisited.html which talks about a mainly black...

Now that you are about to have armed drones watching and tracing your every move in the homeland itself will it become a matter of exercising your constitutional right as well as the fashion accessory of the moment to carry a SAM? - since the military are about to become directly involved with...

Nothing about nation-wide looting and army take-over on the BBC - nor anywhere else http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/world-latin-america-20821946 couldnt be more wrong "Special" Broadcasting Service - with this inventiveness are you the new home for Murdoch press rejects?

Two thoughts having read a well crafted and cogent OP that demands careful thought. I hope you can take criticism of your country from someone from another English speaking country that has its own problems - including a slowly growing illegal rise in the use and ownership of guns for criminal...

1. Yes this is a very talented shot indeed - and carefully avoids showing any of the media who are in attendance 2. More on Guy Debord - a very important thinker http://www.guardian.co.uk/commentisfree/audio/2012/mar/28/big-ideas-podcast-debord-society-spectacle The Big Ideas podcast: Guy...
