The level of the hypocracy from studyform and others , he doesn't believe that British citizens and communists and liberals and leftists would support the carrying of the Isis flag , in Britain .
That shows that anything they might say on the subject of flags should be taken in that light. |
|
By:
How many carrying those flags in Britain have been arrested, how many sent to jail and deported ?
So I suggest studyform pipes down about any other flag until this is made clear on every evening news programme and news outlet. |

By:
Total coverage , from the BBC blanket coverage when we see them arrested and jailed and deported.

I will look in later studyform, I don't suppose you will have anything sensible to say.
|
|
By:
If/when you write something sensible, lfc, I might respond to it.
Just to say - People who oppose far right, neo-Nazi protests anywhere, are not part of that new hit combo 'Studyform and the Leftists'. |

By:
Wondering if I should tell the neighbourhood watch to be on the look out for any flags as some of them might be wrong'uns.

Sky News open story 'Donald Trump finally condemns far right groups'
Finally.... whats that all about ?, Are Sky news suddenly his parents, his supervisors, his boss, will Kay Burley be sending him to bed early at 9 o'clock tonight for being bold. ? The independent unbiased news reporters should be reporting the news as 'American President Donald Trump condemns far right groups' |

Amazing that people still say the US Civil War was not about slavery.
'States rights' In the constitution of the Confederancy , states did not even have the right to legalize slavery , so much for state's rights ! |
|
By:
Trump is rightly criticized for not emphasizing the far right in his original statement .
It was quite similar to Corbyn condemning 'all sides' when Maduro's thugs are killing people in Venezuela. |
|
By:
Using May's weapons. But yeah, I agree.

Very good, tobe.
Good thing Corbyn isn't president of the USA ![]() |

Alot of points here.
'You either support what these protesters were doing or you don't.' Which protestors are you talking about? Antifa, the ones with the Nazi flags, the peaceful conservatives, the peaceful people protesting against those with Nazi flags? Or everyone there? |

I don't think it's hard to work out, is it?
There was a protest, a Far-right protest, anything else was to counter it. Without the former, there's no latter. Unless you think that far-right protests are a good thing and shouldn't be argued against? |

trump has already condemned both parties
hope this helps |

Trump was forced into it.
He hasn't extended the hatred into any tweeting yet. Also, it took 48 hours to do so. Please, moisok, explain the blind loyalty to the narcissistic moron leader of a different country to your own. Maybe you could explain it on behalf of some of the other regulars on here. Has it EVER occurred to you that the press coverage might actually be accurate sometimes and that the feeling of anti-Trumpness has some bearing in reality? |

By:
Studyform,
Are you therefore blaming all violence all those on the 'unite the right' side who had a legal right and a permit to protest about the removal of a war hero's statue? Everyone (just on the right side) who turned out for a legal protest is to blame? |
|
By:
I think you will find studyform was balming the evil flag wavers!

By:
What job do you do, Insider Trader?
|
|
By:
never will I condemn the people protesting against the removal of the monument to General Lee.
I would be ashamed to death to do so. |
|
By:
anyone who protests against this peaceful protest, should be arrested.
|
|
By:
I'm questioning the legal right of any far-right group to gather, with arms, anywhere.
The removal of a statue is a convenient excuse for them. As for war hero..... The violence is generally welcomed, it's grist for the mill. |

General Lee means a lot to you then lfc

I have a great admiration for him, I think he was a genius.

Shame he lost then isn't it?

not really, I`m glad he lost.

heroes often fail.

By:
Studyform,
Are you blaming everyone who protested about the statue being removed for all the violence that occurred? It is a simple question. |

Go to Belgium and in every town / city King Leopold II is celebrated with street names and Statues.
He was the most notorious 'person' to set foot in Africa causing unspeakable atrocities in the Congo. Will he be next to be erased from history by the pc crowd. It's history, get over it. Like it or not. |
|
By:
Of course not.
Not as simple as the ones I asked you, is it? |
|
By:
Enough now, I'm starting to feed the trolls who took over the forum.
stickyvicky, your posts seem quite irrelevant. |
|
By:
Irrelavant, a bit like General Lee then

We never got a straight answer from studyform, did we ?
About those Isis flags in central London. |
|
By:
I think we can assume there have been no arrests.

I seem to recall there was some coverage of these terrible people. By the BBC With the Isis flags...and their faces obscured, by the BBC.

Studyform,
I can find three vague questions in your rants. The news was well broken on most media outlets (most of which are owned by Right wing supporters) before it was on the BBC - who don't actually have a monopoly on news reporting and as has been proven many many times, are no more a left-wing organisation than this sodding forum. There would be no counter-protesters without a protest in the 1st place - was there any need or good reason for a protest or were they a bunch of redneck thugs? Why carry Nazi flags, for example? I'm questioning the legal right of any far-right group to gather, with arms, anywhere. The removal of a statue is a convenient excuse for them. As for war hero..... 1. Was there any need to protest? If people want to protest and they have gone through all the legal channels to do so then why not? It is not up to us to say you cannot protest on the evidence of 'need'. Who decides the 'need'? 2. Why carry Nazi flags, for example? Is it illegal? No. Under freedom of expression it is allowed in the USA. You take away that right what is next? The Confederate Flag? The American Flag? The Union Jack? All these flags have links to regimes that have histories that some people despise. 3. I'm questioning the legal right of any far-right group to gather, with arms, anywhere? Just the 'far-right'? Who defines far right? Are we talking white supremacists? People who want to keep a statue of a war here> any one who supported Trump? Anyone who was against Obamacare? Your point about arms is ridiculous. Virginia is an open carry state. |

It's ok, studyform doesn't have to answer, sometimes the question is more important than the answer.
