yeah - but if you look carefully they are not actually that black - more like mild mulatto - there's no way a louis armstrong coloured president would be in office


its a token appointment


I am not making racist statements I am just stating facts

He never said "rivers of blood", the reference was a literary one. Where in the UK is the river Tiber?

This is the same video that Derek posted but with the missing footage.

Even for those who have been court red handed with video evidence and loads of witnesses, maybe just like this one?. Anyway the cost of a bullet to the middle frontal area of there head is not that expensive.

well I suppose you would have to get into a debate about fluid dynamics and movement to establish what a river consisted of - but it's safe to say there will be a lot of anger about seeing a black dude (probably claiming dole aswell) killing one of oursoldiers serving our country.

In reality he's probably suffering from major paranoid schizophrenia


I'm not trying to troll or stir things up - I am just reacting to that clip I saw on the BBC site


There was a bunch of Islamists a while back all with banner saying "Down with Democracy" - in a protest about democracy in our own country (the dopey f*ckers)

not so angry that they refuse the handouts from that democracy I will wager

You're confusing literary and literally (which was used earlier).

I'd like to think people are thinking about the friends & family of the victim of todays atrocity & how they must feel, rather than see this thread used as a excuse to air views about American politics & Enoch Powell.

There were two men involved, not just the one.

These two guys were crazed. They were just animals.

Agreed.

If people didn't bring up the death penalty, there wouldn't be any need to discuss American politics.

I said it wasn't meant in a literal sense of actual rivers of blood. The quote originally used was a literary reference.

it is otherwise known as the "Rivers of Blood" speech, a title derived from its allusion to a line from Virgil's Aeneid

How did I get it wrong?

Agreed, but when people use the incident as something to help promote their hobby-horses, they must expect to be challenged...

I think the perpetrators are animals, not because of their religion or ethnicity, but because of their actions - my thoughts are with the poor bloody victim, and his family and friends.

That's virgil the greek poet who I seem to recall made a cameo appearance in Dante's Divine comedy 300 years later - and not the pilot of Thunderbird Two as some of the younger posters may have thought

Virgil was Roman.

I don't care about America, i care about this country and our right to deal with terrorist how they should be dealt with not pussy footing around them treating them nicely and with a respect they would never ever give us as some think we should. I just wished the police shots had killed them and we would not been to be having the same boring facts thrown at us about America and what they do. This is the UK and we should be doing what WE do. Still as they are alive they will have access to lawyers, nice warm prison cells, food, visits from the loved ones, freedom after so long.

What a shame there victim will never get any of that or any closure for his family and friends when the time comes to let these ******* terrorists walk our streets again .
