Quite correct, that gift was totally inappropriate.
He should have given him several yards of fuse.
Sweet Christ on a cracker. This s^*t has got to stop. All this p.c.ness, all this knowing that the standard description of an airplane hijacker/bomber is middle eastern male of ages 20-35 but we can’t “profile” so ignore that man trying to light his shoe, BULLSHIT flag has been raised.
"hate crimes” and “hate speech” are total bullshit. And I am damn sick and tired of it. “Equality under the law” means you have the same rights as I do, not one more nor one less.
This PC crap is out of control. All political correctness should be is “don’t make ad hominem attacks on others, and don’t judge people by their natural attributes (ie skin color or sexual alignment etc)”. That’s it. The rest is garbage.
If and when I see a “hate” charge being laid on some schmuck because of what they said or did to a white male college educated Christian then I’ll buy into it ... maybe. But that’s never going to happen, so these laws should be tossed. Hell’s fires, the whole damn concept should be tossed. Anybody who cries for “equal rights” and believes in “hate crimes” is a bigot, because inherent in that belief is the underlying belief that some groups are more deserving than others. Sod off.
GoF, that was a great comment!
Hey! California’s level of PC hasn’t nearly approached what you’re seeing in Britain. I can’t say we haven’t got some strange stuff out here (just google: Nunez Perata California state legislature or california proposition 93), but the Brits seem determined to set a world record for the prosecution of dumb jokes!
The originators of Prop 93 are 2 Democrat State Legislators named Nunez and Perata. They are basically the ones responsible for California’s budget deficits and insane gun control laws of recent years. They also blocked Schwartzenegger’s reforms on redistricting. On the surface, Prop 93 looks like a good thing, BUT it’s major function is to allow those 2 sphincters to keep their jobs a little longer. The devil is in the details. This time, they’re even selling out their fellow Democrats.
One piece of irony is that here in California, U.C. Berkley in particular, the Free Speech Movement was started by Mario Savio 40 years ago. The FSM was about being able to use any language you cared to use (f*ck was especially popular). I sometimes wonder if the current liberal establishment, who were the protesters backing Savio back then, ever consider what they have become. Probably not, that would require personal integrity and intellectual honesty.
I learned something today:
one-legged lesbian lorry driver
Fantastic. Didn’t know there was such a thing. See what you learn by reading BMEWS?
As to whether I’ve been to Europe lately, is 1986 lately? I was in France and Italy in 1986. Italy was more fun. The French are stuck up pigs. Except for that waiter in some hole-in-the-wall eatery we stumbled over. Once we started trying to speak French to him he actually cracked a smile. Kinda like Lurch from the Addam’s Family. He even grumbled like Lurch. Have to admit, like all hole-in-the-wall eateries, this one was superb!
Do you remember “Listen to KFI or your fiddle won’t faddle.”? L.A. Used to have a lot of great radio stations. These days it seems that they’ve either gone corporate or changed formats so much that only the call letters are recognizable.
Drew, should we be insulted? As if the two of us could ever hurt the French. Just by posting on a third-rate, tin-plated dictator with delusions of god… (sigh, guit quoting Star Trek)
Oh. Wait. It’s peiper’s fault. He mentioned Christopher. And Drew. In the same sentence!
Case closed.
We can fix this for about .25-.50 cents per problem. This has gone well beyond a joke.
I’ve been reading history lately, and it occurs to me that we are right to pity the poor Fwench. They can’t help having no balls, their evolution has selected for cowardice.
Back during the days of Roman expansion, it was known as Gaul. They were courageous and great hearted people. Alas, their best tactician, Vercingetorix, lost to Caesar. Caesar consolidated his gains by killing or enslaving anyone who gave him any tiniest bit of grief at all. The few with any balls who LIVED escaped to Britain and Ireland.
That didn’t breed out the tendency for courage though. Charlemagne took all of northern Europe, but instead of consolidating the spirit of Gaul he exported courage to Germany.
However, there was still some left. The French who still had some stones went and conquered England in 1066. Those who didn’t stayed home.
By the end of the Middle Ages, French courage was almost entirely dead. What little there was left in the French gene pool rallied around Jeanne D’Arc and kicked the English out of France. Yes, they had a chance to get their balls back, but they drove them away. Nonetheless, there was still the horrible specter of a 17 year old girl with courage. That would never do, so they executed her. What’s more, they made an example of her, as a warning to any Fwenchmen considering growing a set as an investment in the future.
The last gasp of Fwench courage was Robespierre, a man so far from the norm he might be considered an aberration. And yes, he WAS far from the norm. The typical Fwenchman had nothing to say about the excesses of Louis the Putrid, not until he had a courageous man he could hide behind while he threw his cobblestones.Of course, any Fwenchman would be incensed by this analysis. Not because it isn’t accurate, but because it leaves out that highest and mightiest example of *Fwench* courage: A CORSICAN named Bonaparte. When they finally decided courage might be useful to them, they were so destitute of that commodity they had to import it.
That was over 200 years ago, and what courage remains in the Fwench genetic line practices that courage from hiding, as it did in WWII.
So my friends, the next time you wonder what became of Fwench courage, be sympathetic and thankful. The reason they have none of their own is because they spent the last 2000 years giving it away to the Germans and the English. All they have left is whinyness and vindictiveness which, alas, are no substitute.
Yes it was unfair… but there is a part of it I’ll stand by.
So far as I can tell, yes, French history shows a tendency to send the courageous away to foreign lands as either immigrants or conquerors, while the cowards stay home and run things.
Since the US has been following a similar pattern lately, I consider the fact that millenia of following that pattern STILL hasn’t bred courage out of French culture to be a message of hope.
Yes, it annoys me that they consistently let the cowards and opportunists lead. But in truth, it doesn’t annoy me any more than when we Americans do it.Dupes? The everage citizen perhaps, but I don’t buy that one for the leaders. Someone who has spent his life making human nature work to his advantage can’t get me to believe he is unable to figure out that appeasement carries a price tag. “Once you pay the Danegeld, you never get rid of the Dane.” If he *didn’t* figure it out it isn’t because he was unable to see, it’s because he *refused* to see, or care.
Sorry, I stand by the word I chose. Cowards.
