rant Respect for the dead

[penguin]

Agrred.

 

Whether or not a person feels the war in Iraq is justified or not, to publicly castigate those who are in the front line is, IMHO, way out of order. Again IMHO, many of Penguins recent posts (and not just in this thread) are actually alienating him from many others on the forum rather than gaining sympathy.

 

I don't agree with your opinion CJ - but i still respect it. On the same token, i feel it's outrageous to still justify our forces still being in foreign lands when they were sent there on a false flag - not forgetting the many millions of people who have been affected directly or indirectly as a consequence. I'm not here to gain anyones sympathy.

 

I'll leave it at that

Is a GPMG a general purpose machine gun? Are you suggesting you'd like to shoot penguin or that you'd like him to shoot you?

 

I thought we didn't tolerate threats of violence to other members no matter how much we disagree with them?

Yeah I thought the same. TO be honest though, having read Offland's posts before, I get the impression that he would probably hold the GPMG the wrong way round and shoot himself in face. Note I did not say shoot himself in the brain- that would be an impossible shot.

Ignoring the rest, the bold bit is classic keyboard warrior speak. Funny.

Bit far there bro, keep it to words, this is not the place for threats. He has his opinion and you have yours leave it at that. If you dont want to talk to him then dont.

Oh the irony.

And we seem to be very far removed from the original post so I'm going to lock this now. Threatening behaviour will not be tolerated here and will be dealt with separately.
