To flashdangerpants and vegetariantaxidermy I owe you both a big apology! For the way I have criticized you both, I was a gobshite and out of order and had no right to insult the pair of you! I should practice what I preach, instead of being the hypocrite that I have found myself to be.

Are you for real lad? You just called my family pakis, and you have the balls, to call me a twat! Are you serious? You fookin idiot! Who do you think you are???????
Get a fucking grip on yourself.

Look at page 1, scroll down a little bit. Look at the rambling anecdote about your grandad's farm. The racist grandad - your fucking words. The racist grandad whose friend Tofi ran a corner shop. I referred to the fact that your racist grandfad called Tofi a Paki, and you can fuck off you lying bastard if you say that isn't true.

So, stop being a fucking twat. Read properly, and then shut the fuck up anyway.






Also, stop replying 10 fucking times to everything.
Just to clear things up, I said my grandad would be judged as a racist for his views and opinions by todays standards! You are trying to condemn a man who was in the era when times weren't so Liberal... Also I think you might be forgetting that at that time, for their family to accept that their son was to marry an English women, was a major thing.. Yet it happened! As I said I apologise for my rant... But please don't call my family pakis..and my grandad a racist... Because I do take them insults personally.

I couldn't care less if you criticise me, it's your misreading of comments that is irksome. Flash certainly didn't call your family 'pakis' (that would be ridiculous, especially as he wouldn't know where the hell they were from).

My apology, was given because I was wrong and misjudged I accused you both of being snowflakes, which you are! The only thing that is different is I have realised that I am a hypocrite! We live and learn.

I didn't call them anything. Your grandad obviously did though, which is what I referenced.

What is the point of your thread? Is it that everyone is getting all het up about labelling people with terms that used to be ok? If so, given that your grandad used to be normal by the standards of his day, but is racist by the standards of today ... we know what he called the Indian guy who owned the corner shop. Do you fucking understand yet you utter fucking cretin?

As VT already mentioned, please take your faux apology and cram it without lube.

Yes, really. I’m not a BSer. I can’t imagine anyone concocting my story as BS.
The event has been haunting me for 48 yrs.
If I had it to do over, I would rather be killed.
I opposed all war, and yet I shot someone who then died of wounds. Instinctual fear over ethical behavior.

The test continues. There was no knowledge about how to ameliorate PTSD in 1970. Unfortunately, it becomes intractable unless addressed early.
gaffo wrote: Thu Nov 22, 2018 4:47 am peace to you Sir.
Peace, to those who fought for it (yes, we fought to come back to a peaceful home, not to defeat the North Vietnamese, not to keep Commie Corn Flakes off the shelves at the grocery store), has a flavor the protected will never know.
gaffo wrote: Thu Nov 22, 2018 4:47 am Nam? - just curious, none of my business.
Yes, RVN, Danang, Hue and the Ashau Valley
I thank you for your candor and reply to me, you have my respect for your honesty in your reply and your regret for having to be put into the position to take another's life over a bullshit war (at least IMO WRT to "us" - not so much to the Vietnamese (both N and S) - who lived there).

To be honest, I thought Nam taught american something - "to choose to go to war wisely", but Iraqnam showed me my folly in such thinking.

the latter showed me the history of Nam is not enough for the foolish (and that a Volunteer Army is a bad idea (Pretorian Guard) - i thought it was a good idea, until 2004 and Iraqnam - then it just showed to serve for "others dying for me - no skin in the game - so if war is dumb (like Iraqnam) - fine, no draft so no worries, let the volunteer chump serve/get shot................I'll just wave a flag and "support our troops" in a parade.


BTW 12 yrs ago - I was very vocal anti Iraqnam - internet saves all posts - including Usenet, so you will see my 12+ yr old posts if you have an interest.

thanks for honest reply Sir.

I will give you the olive leaf! And propose a level ground of discussion, a question for a question! You ask me anything, and I will reply truthfully, I ask you and you do the same? What you say! Truce?
Apparently I'm a 'snowflake', according to you. Could you do me a huge favour and copypaste my 'snowflake' comment that put me in this category in your mind? That would be greatly appreciated. Btw, if you are English when why are you using American badspelling?
Dave and I have debate in another thread over Brixit, he is not an American, English or may a Scott.

I'll let him clarify as to which himself.

Your not in a rush are you?
It would be quicker to google 'how to copy paste' though. I'm sure a bright guy like you could manage it :)
Lol..let's get one thing straight, I'm not a bright guy!
welcome such candor, humility.

me the same Sir ;-).

Get over it and hurry up to your bath-chairs as you've left the world in a terrible state for the young so if they want to think differently leave them to it as they're probably not going to have it for very much longer.
your perspective assumes that PC is correct.

I disslike PC thought police mentality.

a await your defence of such mentality (when it seems too extreme to me - at the expence of bigotry (which is allowed via my Constitution - i know you are an Englishmen).

thanks for reply.

to clarify, i support gay marriage and legalization of weed/etc,,,,,,,,,,,have no interest in either, just sick of the vilinization of those that speak against either.

BTW i do not speak out against either - but the PC mentality condemns me for just being silent on either/both and for being a while male.

not racist, GF is a beautiful Black lady.................but i'm sure the PC will either claim she is a "bedwench" or me a "slaver" - dissregarding our personal views of seeing each other has humans over our race.

it serves their tribal pinheaded agenda.

Facists need to be exposed and brought down whenever possible. Sorry, but I'm not about to just lie back and let some self-righteous pricks take away free speech.
amen!!!!!!!! is Dave a fascist?

nice to see the above post.

good to see the thread back on track.

valid point - took more balls to marry a black gal 100 yrs ago than today in america (sub any race/nation/etc.........rule is the same).

so an honest person that knows/knews those involved a century ago - can vouch upon their characters.

not some arm-chair "social warrior" living in the lap of luxury today............but "virtue signalling" as a hallmark of cowards/hypocrites.
