why no penalty for Hamilton?

You're the one that made the initial reference to people. Perhaps you should leave such silly comments for the Chit chat forum if discussing it here bothers you so much.

Huh? If I'm not very much mistaken, Lewis Hamilton is a person, as are all other F1 drivers, therefore people refers to them, not inattentive pedestrians.

I think Mr Black Knight and yourself will just have to understand that you took it the wrong way. It's an F1 forum so why would I start talking about pedestrians? Unless someone explicitly states that they're talking about something else would it not be prudent to assume they're talking about F1? :confused:

We didn't take it the wrong way. You said people. You were wrong. The language you used is quite clear and you're only squirming now. If you meant F1 drivers them that's what you should have said in your post.

This is ridiculous, F1 drivers are people, we're in an F1 forum so it was obvious that I was talking about F1 drivers and not pedestrians or people making quilts or whatever you're going to talk about next. Regardless of what YOU thought I was saying, I have clarified what I said and your pedestrian argument is completely irrelevant.

Ahahahaha, this is hilarious. I love people like you. The type that never wants to admit they are wrong and desparately try and twist things around to prevent admission. There's a term for it. It's called Denial.

Here is your post again:

Now, to amuse me further, can you just explain to me which part of this post you say actually refers to F1?

So let me get this right, I posted something on the forum, me being the poster I obviously knew what I was saying, you tell me that i wasn't saying what I said that I was saying and that I should admit that I was talking about people in general when I'm talking on an F1 about an F1 driver? :confused:

Can someone please set this guy straight? I promise not to talk about canopies or coupe's for a whole week if someone will just set him straight.

Of course. But people (you know, F1 drivers) should be punished for careless actions which could have caused injury but didn't (as was the case with Lewis Hamilton this weekend, see? There's the link with this thread)

Now please just get back on topic.

EXACTLY! You finally said it! You were talking about people in general and now you're trying to say you weren't. But hey, yes, I'm not the only one that sees it that way either. I am happy to get back on topic now though. It will be pretty obvious to anyone reading thread what you really meant.

What?!?!?!?! I did not SAY that. That is what you are claiming that I said. I DID NOT SAY THAT, NOR DID I MEAN IT. What is your problem? No one else is agreeing with you, Henners said that perhaps I should have said drivers instead of people, perhaps I should have, but that does not change my intent. You seem to have some crazy way of knowing my thoughts better than me :dozey:

My non-dicsussion of coupe's and canopies offer still stands for anyone willing to set this nutjob straight. Heck I'll make it a month of not talking about them.....
