"Asking for money and beating him to the ground"... what does that mean, exactly?

"Pardon us, sir..."
Thwack! Pummel!
"But could you possibly give us some..."
Kick!
"...money?"

:D

Who asks for money when they're mugging somebody?

lol, reminds me of the story of the thugs that ended up in the hospital after a miserably failed attempt at attacking an elderly, retired SAS veteran... ;D

It goes back to that old American stereotype that British people are always proper and polite. ;D

A few minutes on this forum would tell otherwise. ;)

I believe it was Winston Churchill who said it best "It never hurts to be polite to a man, even if you only intend to kill him!" ;D

Just a slight contrast to Teddy Roosevelt's, "Speak softly but carry a big stick."

1. Captain, if the problem is not entered into the technical logbook.........then the aircraft does not have a problem.
2. And, if you have time to write the fault on a napkin and attach to it to the yoke.........you have time to write it in the tech log....see point 1.

Risky move, might very well have gotten stabbed.
My first reaction would have been, give these mugs anything I have on me.
