Hmm, do you want to think about changing your avatar and sig mate. Not the most firendly thing I've seen. There is enough hatred in the world, without adding to it.

Blop · 08-08-2003, 09:47 AM

Oh i thought it was a tastefull display of anti Bush's ness......

I got it from an american webby so i dont think it will offend any of our free thinking american friends i believe they all value freedom of speech etc even though the present regime is undermining it.....

But if it does offend them well......tough they deserve to be offened if it reminds them a little of the awful acts there present government is responsible for.............

And whilst im ranting!!!

read and learn, America and israel our responsible for 9/11

Blop · 08-08-2003, 09:48 AM

I will consider dullying it down a little for good taste.......maybe

Hmm, have you forgotten just how crappy out own government is? We taught the iraqis all about gassing Kurds (Winston Churchill was the first to do it).

We supplied the gas that Saddam used, when he decided he like to keep up the fine British tradition of gassing Kurds.

We know he should have large stockpiles of WMD's, we sold him them.
At least Bush (Mad or Not, and I don't agree with what he did) had the balls to commit to something. All Tony did was lick his crack, and chant his mantra at press conferences "I agree with President Bush, I agree with President Bush". If you look closely, i'm sure you can see a black sleeved arm coming out of the back of his jacket.

Oh, and when an expert speaks up about glamourised and falsified dossiers as reasons to go to war, he mysteriously commits suicide, and then then with no respect to his friends, collegues, and family is publicly called a Walter mitty Character, by an official spokesman for the government.

Please Don't thing that Pres Bush is any dirtier than Tony, and don't judge the American people by a crazy cheating, ultra rightwing president.

Blop · 08-08-2003, 10:03 AM

Tony is bad and i think we all realise that, but that is a luxury because our media is not yet as controlled as the Americans........most americans believe that 9/11 was commited by Al Qaidea!!

Some even thought there were iraqis on board those planes! So its difficult not to judge when such a great nation falls asleep and belives all its told....

I do think bush is dirtier than tony though........

But thats all opion and maybe i should not flaunt so much on an mp3 forumn.....

That was my point.

In a lot of what you said I agree. It's a personal opinion. great for discussing down the pub with mates, or on a political forum, but not so good for a general use or IT type place like this.

People take offense about their country or even their leader being slated by someone from somewhere else. Even if privateley they agree with the sentiment.

And a lot of Americans post here, incase you forget.

Thanks. Despite our many problems as a country, I dont think that your "statement" will sit well with many americans.

Skraggy_uk · 08-08-2003, 10:40 AM

GuruGod, I think he's got the message. At least as a fellow brit, I could explain to him where he went wrong without getting to emotional. Was trying to stop a flame war before one started by accident.

GuRuGoD · 08-08-2003, 10:42 AM

And I appreciate your (and blop's) maturity in the matter. It could have been a lot messier. Thanks again.

Skraggy_uk · 08-08-2003, 10:49 AM

No probs. Like I said. I agree with a lot of his opinions about the gulf war (especially my goverment part in it), and I guess I have may part to share in it's shame, even though I can safely say I have never voted for the Blair government in either of his terms of office. But like I said to Blop, this isn't the place.

I suppose your right but the ones it wouldnt sit well with are the problem, i guess.

Like here in the Uk the ones that are the problem are the ones that ignore the problems.......

Any way love and peace to you......

Nice to see another Mazda guy. Mate of mine had a nice 323 hatch that he did his first install, using a shuttle box.

He sold the car now, but is looking to build another Sub/Amp rack and Shuttle build into his Mi16
