Racist rioting...by Black people!
I looked at those words in amazement...Black people aren’t racist, only White people are racist, and when was the last time you heard of Black people rioting, or murdering, or raping, or pushing drugs outside schools, or doing anything that wasn’t law abiding! I think Statler needs to get his facts straight...
The Trial Thread never ceases to amuse, to think there are people who actually have a mindset like that...then again, The Sniffing Three did vote for Joe. 👙

...it only takes one juror to express a reasonable doubt, for whatever reason...
Well let me give you the reason...it’s because there is reasonable f**king doubt!
No wonder racism exists!

I had a bit of a snigger today when I read in The Times about John Cleese taking the piss out of people apologising for basically bugger all! It was along the lines of his classic "What do you expect to see out of a Torquay hotel bedroom? The leaning gardens of Babylon, herds of wildebeest wandering majestically across the plain.. ".
It was akin to the ridiculous nonsense about Exeter Chiefs should not be called Exeter Chiefs because it may upset a cherekee or sioux who has never actually heard of Exeter Chiefs in the first place!
I long for those days of innocence when I could play games with my mates called Cattle Management Technicians and Native Indigenous American People. Those were the days! 😉

I decide myself flyinggull. Nobody else will do it for me. I would think native Americans are more offended about having their land stolen from them and being impoverished by being forced to live in small areas, than they are of the name of a sports team they have never heard of in a country thousands of miles away.
You are coming over a bit like Sharon on Facebook these days flyinggull offended by everything.
Perhaps you need to get more sleep! 😉

Perhaps you need to get more sleep! 😉 I never said I was offended i asked where do you draw the line between which groups you are happy to offened and thoses that you are not happy to offend. I would like to know so i can tailor my posts accordingly. Native American are ok to offend, got it. Just as with our earlier exchange about the vegan i pointed out there is most likely more then the 'vegan refuses and pass' headline which there was. Speaking of the earlier exchange you said 'this is a football forum and people must be bored of the non football talk' yet here you are posting on the non football side of the forum and then moan when people respond. If you dont want people to respond to your posts then maybe posting on a public forum isn't what you should be doing. Sleep isn't a problem and as i have said im not offended mearly asking questions. |

Thats nice but doesnt address anything. I certainly knew it wouldn't stop you having the last word flyinggull, a trait I have noticed in your exchanges with other posters. Without being offensive I would have to say that you do miss the point, and to back up (or maybe to disguise) that you have missed the point you just make things up as you go along and put it over as being fact. You said in your last post that I should not be posting on a public forum if I am offended by people responding. Nowhere will you find any indication that I have been offended by your responses or "moaned" about them. I have found them amusing and I may have taken the mick a bit. That is a character trait I am cursed with through having a sense of humour. In both of the recent posts you mention the Red Indians one and the failed vegan student one, you asked a question and I answered it. I cannot be held responsible if you do not like my answers. Perhaps your shoulders need widening? I know that I was not offensive in my responses, unless of course you get offended by somebody not agreeing with you. If that is the case then there is little I can do about it. The overall and overwhelming impression that I get is that you are offended if somebody responds to you (or maybe you always like to have the last word anyway). Time for Rob rjdgull to get the Woking match day thread up as I have my gloomy forecast ready. Over to you to have the last word and I promise I will keep you happy by not responding (as you would then need to respond for the last word and it could go on ad infinitum!) I have more important things on my mind now! EXETER CHIEFS v Wasps in the Rugby Union Premiership is on Channel 5 12.30 kick off. We have no soccer game this afternoon so there is the opportunity for everybody to tune into some real full blooded sporting action!  |

But you havent answered where do you draw the line between what group of people its ok to offend and which is it not. Although you have confirmed that native Americans are ok to offend. I havent missed your point in the vegan thread and i agree if you need to pass all modules then you shouldnt pass. However the story wasnt about a vegan not wanting to do the course but the course provider not ensuring certain requirements had been met and therefore backed down when challenged. Had it been a farmers son would there be such a news story i bet not but because its a vegan its a good headline. |

Life is so simple, but for some reason people make it so hard for themselves!
We all have different opinions (admittedly, my opinions are the opposite of most people) but without differing opinions this world would be like the BTPR site...mindlessly boring!
I mention the above, because seemingly I have been let out of some sort of bin...let’s see how long I can stay out! ⏰⏳
