Priceless!

[MindandSoul]

1. She looks like a man in disguise!

[TheCowsCameHome]

9. So does the person on the right.

:rofl:

[AngryAmish]

12. you win the internet today!

[SurfingScientist]

22. ROFL!!! (eom)

[MindandSoul]

37. But he is not as "handsome!" (LOL!)

[OKNancy]

11. No she doesn't. She looks like a woman who is 63

and isn't puffed up on Botox

[AngryAmish]

15. You cannot call that horse-faced sack of dung a woman

She is complete and utter shit. As are the rest of the royals worldwide.

[AuntPatsy]

18. Hopefully your words come from anger towards the elite and not elderly women themselves

[AngryAmish]

21. No, strictly royalty.

In fact I do not mind an "elite" if that means rich people. The world is not fair and some people have more looks, brains and ability than others.

Royalty, however, should be done away with. Give up your title or your head.

[JI7]

47. but people in the UK like their royal family

they are mostly figure heads now anyways.

[HipChick]

62. actually they don't...and people cannot stand Camilla especially

[WinkyDink]

53. Then your anger should be directed to her husband, as Camilla is NOT "royalty." But then, he's male.

[AngryAmish]

65. Duchess is not royalty?

lemmie check the old intergoogles for you...

[Hannah Bell]

67. she's a duchess. & the grandaughter of a baron.

[Zoeisright]

50. Yep. Her cold-hearted manipulation of Princess Diana was utterly shameful.

She and that big-eared sot Prince Charles took advantage of a 19 year old girl and suckered her into continuing the line while lying to the church and everyone else.

I hate both of their fucking guts. It's about time their pampered existence was disrupted.

[WinkyDink]

52. OFGS. Yeah, the rest of us are beauty queens.

[JoFerret]

79. Please can your misogyny

And stick to the gender neutral agenda: "Off with their heads"

[MindandSoul]

38. sorry, I look like a woman who is 61, with no botox. . .she looks manly!

[HipChick]

63. She went through several rounds of plastic surgery after she married Charles

In an attempt to win over the British public...sadly both efforts have failed

[CBGLuthier]

2. Who are Two Douches who have never been in my kitchen, Alex.

[grasswire]

3. kudos to that photographer

An amazing photo. I'm kind of glad to see her that scared.

[Cirque du So-What]

4. The peasants are revolting!

That's right! They stink on ice!

[Raschel]

20. Oh no - my emeralds!!

[MindandSoul]

39. Correction: These are probably Diana's emeralds!

[blondeatlast]

55. Ouch! But likely true. nt

[krabigirl]

5. Lmao

[dipsydoodle]

6. So tell me

You're driving along in a car and someone runs up and breaks the window - yes the window was broken.

Are you telling me you don't react at all cos if not I suggest you get a check up done urgently.

[hughee99]

7. "Who farted?" n/t

[TlalocW]

8. Oh, I say...

This simply isn't done, rampaging about like some rummy Punjabs! You'll be hearing from my solicitor!

TlalocW

[montanacowboy]

10. Look at the emeralds on her neck

worth hundreds of thousands

let them eat cake she sez

[JanMichael]

16. Bingo

That's the first thing I saw-- the jewelry. Did their driver not know there was a riot going on? Hello?

[coalition_unwilling]

13. Parasites, both of them! - n/t

[11 Bravo]

14. In 2007, while preparing to deliver an Australia Day speech, a man rushed the podium ...

got within a few feet of Charles, and fired two shots from a starter's pistol. Charles had no idea it was not a real pistol, but he simply turned and looked at his assailant. I'll wager you would have had to change your drawers in a similar situation.

(Google "Prince Charles assassination attempt" for video.)

[MindandSoul]

40. He was probably drugged up and didn't even know what was happening!

[nadinbrzezinski]

17. Having had command of the EMS sector during a real life riot

and having been present as rank and file for three more... I can tell you, they are NOT a fun place to be.

Freaking out is the RIGHT reaction to be honest.

Not defending them... just pointing a little reality here... and a few police intel units are probably reaching the same conclusion I have. This is more than just some isolated events... and I hope they wiffle.

[gratuitous]

23. I agree

They actually look more reserved than I think I would be in an enclosed container suddenly surrounded by an angry mob. Is this a preview for what might happen in the U.S., or are we too "civilized"?

[notadmblnd]

32. No, it's just that our royalty here drive around in armored, bullet proof

vehicles, whose windows do not break.

[gratuitous]

44. I think the limo they were in was armored, too

But somebody managed to crack one of the windows. My prediction: job growth in manufacturers of security glass. The wealthy need to be protected from the rabble.

[Hannah Bell]

68. 20 people = riot?

[JVS]

19. Prince Tampon!

[Liberalynn]

24. Whinnie, nicker, nicker, stamp, stamp. nt

sorry couldn't resist.

I was always camp Diana. Chuckie and Cammie will never get any sympathy from me on any subject. He treated Diana like dirt. He loved his horses more than her.

[Warpy]

25. Their car was attacked

Peasants are starting to rise up all over the place.

Our day is coming.

[Catherina]

59. Angry peasants with pitchforks. The elite is unbelievably clueless

Driving through an asuterity protest dripping with HUGE emeralds and diamonds.

Shouting "Off with their heads" and breaking a car window was comparatively mild to that.

[Warpy]

64. No shit!

I was justifying those silly expressions as they were pelted with eggs.

I doubt this will wake them up, either.

[Catherina]

72. I was told by a monarchy sympathizer here that calling the people peasants

was insulting to him. Oh my God, I couldn't even answer. The elite sympathizers won't even acknowledge that's that how they see us.

This won't wake them up. Camilla will find even more strength in her elitist view that we're just here to subsidize her emeralds and poor Charles, who has a 20th of a clue, won't understand how his family's imperial millions have deprived others of justice.

Nope, not walking up anytime soon.

[name not needed]

26. "Oh no! The rabble have broken free from their cages!"

[donheld]

27. Someone called them a Douchenozzle?

[MrMickeysMom]

28. Nice comb-over, Chuck!

:hi:

[butterfly77]

29. Kick...

[hlthe2b]

30. I think Charles has tried to be more human than some in the family...

but it is quite a reach. I do give him some credit on that score, nonetheless. Camilla? Nah.... Privileged and so convinced she is above it all.

One thing that Diana appreciated is that a modern monarchy has to include interaction on the important social issues of the day. The aloofness to issues impacting the people who support them is what will eventually dismantle their system of entitlement.

[glitch]

33. Agreed, there are others I'd like to see in this position more.

Still, heads up elites.

[MindandSoul]

41. Yes! He was indeed very human (even sub-human) while smelling Camilla's underwear while still

married to Diana!

[onethatcares]

31. "don't these peons understand

We are royalty"

hmmmmm, they probably never had an inkling what the lower classes were going through.

[sabrina 1]

61. Actually Charles always was concerned about the people's

issues. The monarchy in Britain are not allowed to get involved in politics, but I believe he got himself in trouble during the Thatcher years by speaking up for the working class. He and Diana, had they had a good marriage, could have been a huge force for good as they had similar concerns in terms of the people. But they didn't. And I doubt Camilla has much interest in the little people.

[UTUSN]

34. The eternal nightmare for "royals": The peasants will wake up. n/t

[pacalo]

35. "Is it too much to ask for a little admiration & gawking smiles when we pass the peasants?!"

[pacalo]

36. "These peasants are supposed to ADMIRE our riches! Look! They're so...ANGRY!"

[applegrove]

42. I don't think the whole situation is funny at all.

[Toucano]

43. The whole situation is not funny at all.

But that photo is mildly amusing.

[David Zephyr]

45. I understand the crowds were shouting "Off with their heads!"

That's hilarious.

[Raine]

46. Sadly I think Charles could've turned out to be a decent

human being if he could've ever gotten out from under Mummy and Daddy's thumbs. If he had had the guts to marry Camilla in the first place instead of Diana. Charles choose to sell his soul though for the hope of one day becoming king so he toes the line ... too bad because he's fairly liberal if he wasn't such a wimp.

[WinkyDink]

56. Charles chose not to marry C. when he was sent off for some duty. SHE chose to marry while he was

gone.

[Raine]

58. THANKS for the bit of info

I couldn't quite remember how it came about. I do remember the Queen and Philip weren't infavor of Camilla, probably pressured both of them out of marrying. I really think it's a shame because things might have been different. I do like Charles and wish he had been given a chance to really do something.

[Arugula Latte]

48. I would be freaking out, too, if I were them.

It can't be a comfortable feeling to be vulnerable in a car surrounded by an angry mob.

[blindpig]

49. When we can see that look on our ruling class....

then we're getting somewhere.

[WinkyDink]

51. I don't see the humor. She was physically, as in bodily, attacked, not simply had her limo rocked.

[Beaverhausen]

54. I don't either. Some of the responses here disgust me

[WinkyDink]

57. MEANwhile, CHARLES is a LIBERAL. It's the PM whom you mockers should be attacking.

[cwydro]

60. Looks to me she is trying to gain control

and is yelling at the driver to GO!

Gotta love the nasty little comments about the woman's looks in this thread. It never stops.

[lunatica]

66. I would have been just as scared if I were in that situation

And you probably would have too.

[petronius]

69. I think it's cute that she seems to be reaching to try and protect him. My wife does that,

whenever we brake suddenly or hit a bump. :)

Other than that, I don't really see the humor...

[Scurrilous]

70. Assault is hilarious!!

:thumbsup:

[tammywammy]

73. Plus she's not "attractive"

So she deserves to be hurt.

:sarcasm:

[Raine]

77. Yeah only beautiful attractive people

should never be assaulted. :sarcasm:

[Xicano]

71. Question: Just what do they do that entitles them to such wealth?

:shrug:

[Hannah Bell]

74. and how have they managed to keep it for over 200 years?

[totodeinhere]

75. You don't have to do anything to inherit wealth. You just have to be lucky.

And of course under this so-called tax cut compromise that Obama is pushing, the estate tax will be in place to make sure that the rich can continue to pass it on.

[LeftishBrit]

76. Although I'm no fan of theirs, the attack was wrong

And irrelevant to the cause, which was rising tuition fees and education cuts. The royals have no political power, and the demo was really against Cameron, Clegg and the rest of the government.

This attack will be used by the right-wing media as ammunition against the students, and as a deflection from the real issues.

Needless to say, the tabloid press already have far more to say about this incident than about a young man who was nearly killed by a policeman's truncheon.

[Raine]

78. This was a horribly dangerous situation

I can't understand why the police allowed their driver to put them in such danger.

[spanone]

80. 'do something NOW, you're the fucking prince charlie'

[LeftishBrit]

83. Nothing he can do about it. It's Cameron and his government that are in charge.

And the protest is against them. The attack on the royal car was a spin-off that got a lot of publicity, but has little to do with the real protest.

[Texasgal]

81. why is this funny?

:shrug:

[Raine]

84. With some just being wealthy

would justify them being dragged out and torn limb from limb for everyone's amusement ... proving the right hasn't cornered the market on cruelty. :-(

[libodem]

82. Why?

LOL?

[Raine]

85. Because they're rich I guess that makes their fear funny to some.

Sometimes DU shows a very ugly side ... very disallusioning on a site like this. :-(

[Boudica the Lyoness]

86. If you think this photo is funny

then there's something very wrong with you.

I'm disgusted at the ignorance of most Americans concerning the British Royal Family.
