You'll have to excuse my ignorance on this subject L, as you know my knowledge about anything except abandoned buildings is very limited....I guess that's what happens when you read about economics/politics in the "beano" :rolleyes:

I bet you couldn't wait to comment when you seen I'd made a mistake........Perhaps your next comment will be something of interest on this subject rather than your snidey digs?

Why would I have to wait?

All your posts are innacurate, you never manage a sensible sentence how you get through life with your attitude beggars belief, we've had worse than you on site, somehow you manage to amuse and yet prove that the comprehensive system was a very bad mistake.
Should you really have been taught to read without also teaching you the value of thought?

By the way, if you have a lot of time on your hands and don't mind wading through pages of well-researched facts and figures, the following is a good read: "Hitler's Willing Executioners: Ordinary Germans and the Holocaust" by Daniel Jonah Goldhagen. Of course, some will look at the author's name and conclude that it's just part of the Great Hebe Conspiracy.:rolleyes:

Ditto Eric:
Have look at Jakob Flaw’s Blackmailers & Perpetrators: Polish Complicity during the Holocaust.
http://lib.dr.iastate.edu/cgi/viewcontent.cgi?article=2938&context=etd
and here’s a link on the same lines for Greece .
Greece Must Acknowledge Its Complicity in the Shoah ? Forward.com
So, I posit this, it would have been no different here if the Panzers had rolled down the Mall.
Mans inhumanity to man is embedded all our psyche, push the right buttons to unlock it.

Now that you mention it, it seems as if the Greeks want the Germans to pay back the War Loans (:rofl38:) made to Germany during WW2. How dare they:eek: What next? Back pay for all the labor provided by Greeks in Germany factories? Return of all the stuff the Germans "borrowed"?:rolleyes:

Not particularly interested ... the heat seems to think it was a dispute over parking which, this happening in the Land of the Second Amendment, would't surprise me. Remember this is North Carolina where gun laws are loose ... almost nonexistent.

Nah ... all he did was shoot them ... good, clean American fun ... happens at least a 1000 times a month. If he wanted to make a statement he could have lopped off their pumpkins, or burnt them alive.
 
Yes,considering the number of murders over there I'm surprised it got any airtime at all and yes, it was 'apparently' a dispute over parking.After the outrage over the media bias I see the MSM has decided to put a few articles up....



.....But most folk know that had this been a Muslim shooting white people it would be stop the press, 24hr live coverage and lots of keywords like jihad or links to Al-Qaeda :rolleyes:

Not a good way to introduce a point in any argument ... it's right down there with "They say ...." To start off: Most folk know that 95% of folk don't give a flying [deleted] about shiite like this. The 5% who do care maybe "know" that the incidence of non-muslims offing muslims is fairly low ... possibly on a par with hate crimes against Jews, Gays, and abortionists. There's lots of sounding off, and all kinds of folk claiming to be Charlie Hebdo ... but shooting, (let's leave out Marines or the IDF), beheading, kidnapping, raping, blowing up things, and all that kinda neat stuff ... not too much. "Most folk" leap to conclusions based on experience or previous events. Your back issues of Beano probably mention the Oklahoma City bombing of '95 (I think) after which everyone concluded that it was a muslim terrorist act. It wasn't. But Beano from about two years earlier no doubt broke the news of the bombing of The World Trade Center. So, most folks can be forgiven for making that mistake. In short, your argument is a crock.

I'm not arguing though E,it was more a statement...thanks for replying ;) :D

Of course it's an argument. You can't unilaterally decide it's a neutral statement just because you and the editorial staff at Beano have deemed it so. And if it's not neutral then there scope for agreement or dissent. Things like "E = MC squared" are neutral. Maybe "2 + 2 = 4." But once you get past that level you move to "argument." If you say that "Evolution is random mutation and selective retention", you are making more than a statement. Creationists the world over will see it as the opening of an argument. And when someone states something like "Niggers are stupid, and all they think about is watermelon, fried chicken, basketball and sex," he/she has gone way past statement, and is even stretching the definition of "opinion." If you wish to state that there is a double standard out there, one based on uninformed bias and/or Islamophobia, then do so. Don't squat behind "most folk" or "they say" and other assorted bs.

Believe what you will E,like most my comments on this site, my comment was perfunctory.

The British BSing Corporation otherwise known as the BBC showed a article about the Chapel Hill Shooting and immediately cut it off to show propaganda about ISIS...or to put it bluntly 'the (Islamophobic) mainstream media are bias'.

This picture taken from last weeks beano shows it best :D
