Personally I find it very offensive that a member would use 911, a major terrorist incident, as the basis for a "comedic" caricature. Very poor taste.

19.52 , Nice one Jim.

[ummmm]

Thank you Jim. Point proven, TTT!!

[ummmm]

Oh...and I'm not a leftie.

[ToraToraTora]

basically they were less than pro EUSSR and the Ed thought they may offend the remainer types. Nothing like as offensive as caricaturing a building under attack by terrorists.

[emmie]

it is in poor taste that's for sure..

[ToraToraTora]

"19.48, The avatar you are using now, should be banned. It is offensive" - gulliver, for you me old china, I'll keep it up there. Why not get an avatar of your own.

[gulliver1]

To be quite honest, I have had a good look at sevenOP's Avatar, and I thought it looked like Boris wearing a pair of sun glasses

[Tilly2]

It doesn't though, does it Gulliver? It looks like what it is.

[ummmm]

I agree with Tilly....it looks exactly what it is.

/// jno and twopee would rather attack me than condemn an offensive avatar. Strangle people you lefties. //

yes boys and gurls, AB's greatest something really did exhort "strangle people you lefties" !
who was it who used to quip: righto !

Strangle people you lefties. - yes sir TTT er going out anywhere tonight? just sort of asking - I am a man committed to non-violence

[andres]

It is offensive,insensitive and abhorrent. Especially if you have had relatives involved in the 911 tragedy.

[ToraToraTora]

so 2pee now reduced to attacking a typo! PMSL!

I wonder how that image is categorised on Gravatar. Do you not have to declare an image to be suitable for a family site when you enter it?

19 .59 "ah yes, now I remember, years ago forgot about that "
Typical Tory , when you are caught out just have a senior moment , cross your fingers and hope everyone believes you.

[gulliver1]

Ummm 18.55, Did he call himself Nora Nora Nora in those Days.?

[Prudie]

OMG why does it matter what people did or didn't do in the past, or who did it - this shouldn't be about posters and their politics it's about the avatar itself as a single entity. I just hope, based on what was rightly or wrongly deemed as an inappropriate image in the past, that Ed reviews it tomorrow with the equal unbiased criteria that have been used in the past (eg if a swastika and a Robertson's golly is a no-no then neither is this).

[andres]

Thank you TTT. I was referring to my son who by a quirk of fate had to work two blocks away on that day instead of being in the Twin Towers office. He survived but several of his colleagues and friends didn't. We had to go through several agonising hours not knowing how he was because all the lines of communication were blocked.

[ToraToraTora]

wow andres, glad he was ok, many died that day, terrible when their memory is abused by the nasty left on this site.

[andres]

True TTT^^^

''terrible when their memory is abused'' full stop
