@yrhenwr too kind of you! I bet you’ll have fun. @bkbinthecity thank you a lot! @yaorenliu they are at every corner of the most crowded places, anti-terrorism prevention. Agree with you on the uneasiness... @seattlite thank you very much!
@golftragic thank you ! Agreed. But after Nice and London who wants a truck running on the crowd in the very center of Rome? @jclaireyp thank you! @amyk in fact... thanks! @kwind they do! Thank you
@domenicododaro I do understand. Melbourne has also had a loony-tunes drive down one of the busiest main city malls mowing people down, killing six (including a baby in a pram) and injuring 28. But we don't really do guns here in Oz, we put up cement-block bollards instead.
@golftragic@fbailey So sad. I do feel uncomfortable in this state of the World. And still, We are lucky not to have been born 50 or more years before...
@domenicododaro Absolutely right Domenico. I was, in fact born nearly 77 years ago, smack-bang in the middle of World War 2, on the day the Japanese invaded Singapore. I met so many mentally and/or physically damaged young men when I was growing up. My Dad was one of only three survivors in his RAAF group (or whatever) intake to make it through until the end. Terrible times indeed. And tomorrow marks 100 years since the Armistice that ended fighting in WW1. Why does mankind never learn that wars rarely achieve anything positive?
@golftragic In fact. And think about turning the clock's hands backwards further 50 years... All possible conflicts. And dying of a flu. And no dental care... and so on. Maybe we have just been spoilt by the longest peacetime in history.
I had to look up 'esercito' so I might understand better. We have army recruiting offices in odd places too, next to dry cleaning stores and the such. I hope I never become comfortable with the presence of guns in public places.
