Blimey.

I've always had a simple test for gauging how serious people are at making a fresh start & fitting in.

1. Do you put your personal baggage on the back burner & concentrate of earning a living, contributing to the task in hand & earning a fair day's pay for a fair days work?

OR

2. DO you at every opportunity call for special treatment & to be able to exercise your "rights" at the expense of everything else?


One reason why the country has seeming slept walked into this sorry state of affairs is because those of us who only know option 1 are too busy getting on with it, leaving the soap-dodging lazy liberal leftists to spend all their time & a fair portion of our taxes realising their warped view of how life should be.


I see option 2 everywhere & ever have done since I started my first job at 16 after leaving school. There are those who can & do. Then there are the rest, usually constantly bleating on about how it's all unfair & down to Thatcher.


It's a mindset. There are plenty of "immigrants" & those 2nd/3rd/4th generation children of such who have been more than eager to make the transition to into a civilised society, shaming the "indigenous" chavs & s in their wake.

But these is a large element that are as bad & indeed a swathe of those that it seems are worse than out home growth effluent.


Why is it considered racist to not want those types living next door?

I wouldn't normally want to gas anyone, but these people obviously don't appreciate the men who fought to protect them so I might make an exception.

I really hope that's ironic?

I shall assume it isn't, but I have (or had they died years ago) relatives who fought in WW2 and they fought so that instances of poison gas being used wouldn't happen again. Whilst I go no way to defend what happened, after all it's pretty vile beating up an old man for no reason, I don't think a return to Nazism is really the solution. My grandfather was a POW, the other bore witness to Kamikaze attacks in the Pacific, but I know neither of them would in any way support what you've said. I apologise for coming across all preachy here; but all of this talk of recreating Hitler's policies would be quite offensive to someone who genuinely fought in that war.

Back to the old man.... No-one appears to have read the story. He isn't a veteran, as such, as he never fought in a war. He joined in 1960 and left, apparently, prior to the Falklands campaign. He may have been involved with beating up Catholics but that's another matter. Plus things didn't really rev up over there until the late sixties/early seventies.n

Bravo. In your desperate attempt to make you point, you've stated that it's fine to assault an elderly member of the public on their way to a Remeberance Ceremony.

I'd use the word shame, but you obviously have no concept of it.

Bravo.
