Actor Matt LeBlanc and Hoonigan Ken Block seem to have gotten under the skin of a few chaps in London during the recent filming of a 'Top Gear' episode.

Oh no, all those buthurt people.
Wish I could unload all the Harley bikers from USA upon the thin skinned brits, they would surely have a stroke. No one has a problem here, but one loud car in Europe and everyone loses their mind.

 

No, the burnout was around the Cenotaph, which is the most significant war memorial in the country. It would be like turning up to the tomb of the unknown soldier and doing burnouts. A dick move indeed.

 

So sacred it was placed in the middle of a public street where countless cars and buses pass with in feet of it daily.





And unlike the Tomb of the Unknowns no remains are actually buried there.


Everyone's got to be upset about something nowadays.

The memorial is right next to the road. It is public view so they can be remembered for their sacrifices not as a gymkhana prop. Doing a burn out right next to a war memorial is down right disrespectful.

So because there are no remains it commands less respect?

 

I'm sorry it's in a middle of the street

I'm. It gonna be convinced of it being hallowed ground when it's in the middle of the street

They took what was a temporary wooden monument during parades and turned it into their main war memorial in the middle of the street. Where lorries and Volkswagen beetles can drive by it and crash into it

Should it be respected? Yeah

Should a British based tv show and its producers know better? Heck yeah

Does it rise to the level of a national outrage?
Maybe if you're a British veteran or family of one I guess.

I'm sofa king sick of the way everyone has to be "outraged" by everything these days. STFU!! Everyone is outraged by everything. Saw something on Facebook? OUTRAGED!!!!. Give me a ****ing break, people need to lighten up. Just like the "bully" trend that has taken hold of everything. "Bully" is the new "racist". Its a word that you throw at someone who disagrees with you, and if you are labeled a "bully" its as bad as being a racist. I'm so sick of this ****. It all comes out of the liberal playbook to demonize everyone who disagrees with you.

Suck it up, shut the **** up, be a man and come back with facts instead of labels that silence people. Ooops, there's another one, "be a man" can't say that anymore, it might be offensive and sexist to women and men who used to be men but now have decided that they are women.

 

Well, there could be more exciting things going in Britain then a BBC show, like..... rainy day, and tea and stuff.

 

You're right. A car doing a burnout next to it? Sacrilege. Some guy on his way in to work picking his nose right next to it? Perfectly OK.

 

Top Gear has always been a show about jerks in cars. Now it's just American jerks instead of blowhard tea sipping British jerks.

 

Pretty much yeah, but okay.
