Thanks for that - I would have also called that an accurate definition of "good manners".

Must make it difficult to breathe, then.

I found this comment of his interesting


Awww! Diddims! People were mean to poor old Nicky :( It's was clearly unfair how they brought his own words and policy up! Of course it's going to look bad if you actually talk about them!

BNP leader Nick Griffin is to complain to the BBC over his controversial appearance on Question Time, saying he had faced a "lynch mob".
Well he would know one...

Anyway. So:
  • Gay people are 'creepy' (or public affections of their homosexuality is)
  • Mixed Marriages are Wrong
  • Britain should be 99% White
  • Islam is Evil
And Nick Griffin is complaining he is being victimised :D

Do you understand what it means, Gary?
No, I'm too dumb, Chris.

Is it "bad manners" to kill you in this war, sir?
Yes, mate, take me as a prisoner instead. it'll save a lot of hassle and paperwork.

I googled the exact phrase you used, which blatantly wasn't something you could have constructed by yourself, in order to see which website you plagiarised it from. Lo and behold, the first hit was

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Political_correctness

I didn't even have to click the link to check, as the Google result gave it away:

Victimisation always wins, Chris. :D

Re: [Update] BNP on Question Time this week
 
Funny, Nick Griffin's phoning all the newspapers and TV stations today saying exactly the same thing.

The thing is Gary, you throw around fine-sounding complaints about political correctness and when I challenge you to prove you actually know what you're talking about, you effectively prove you don't know what it means by copying and pasting someone else's definition rather than producing your own.

Then suddenly when this is pointed out to you you're being 'victimised'. Well sorry, it doesn't wash. How is anyone supposed to treat your posts seriously and construct meaningful replies to them when all they are doing is arguing against a collection of buzz-words that you have thrown together without actually understanding what you're saying?

I must admit I'm not a fan, whilst I would never suggest that it not be allowed I don't care for seeing two blokes kissing each other.

Just being honest.

Two 6ft blonde women on the other hand is alright by me.

Mixed Marriages are Wrong
bullpoo. What, I wonder, would his opinion be on the children of mixed relationships? I mean if the father or mother of the child was a "white indigenous british person" what does that make the child?

Quote:

Britain should be 99% White
Just stupid.

Quote:

Islam is Evil
This is where I have a problem. Whilst saying that Islam itself is evil is a sweepingly incorrect generalisation.

Many Islamic states are oppresive, male dominated regimes, that are quite nasty.

And he was right when he said that Islam is really at odds with western culture, the two are like oil and water.

and the relevance of that comment is? Once again, you appear to be dabbling your toes in the shallows of reality whilst you take your daily stroll along the beach of insanity.

We were talking about political correctness, not war - I have been involved in conflicts, Gary, and they are governed by the Geneva Convention, not "political correctness".

When in doubt, avoid the question.

Mmmmmm, where have we seen that on TV lately? ;)

I know, I think we're trying to exclude the 'political correctness' out of the issues in hand.

I missed it as I fell asleep on the sofa..and my son decided to watch summat else.
