Diversity??

Why is it that Muslims can throw a gay man off a building and the right on brigade do not bat an eyelid? If I use a less than PC term or dare to criticise a gay issue I am pilloried? You can throw gays off buildings just as long as you don't criticise gay marraige.

"terms which TTT throws out to all those not agreeing with his own brand of intolerant rhetoric. " - No JTH, Nothing to do with agreement or not, I welcome debate but what I get is Hysterics for not holding the "correct" view. The terms are used by me and others for those that defend the afore mentioned groups rather than condemn their activities.

[Peter Pedant]

you have a helluva time being continuously misunderstood

there are times when I truly wonder how you bear your burden ....

[murraymints]

I fail to see how anyone can not condemn these barbaric acts..in ANY culture

[Zacs-Master]

Starting a thread using terms such as 'the right on brigade' and using FO/D are inflammatory and don't engender intelligent debate Tora. But then you knew that didn't you?

[ToraToraTora]

Linda, there is an excellent monologue on that here:
http://www.theanswerbank.co.uk/Society-and-Culture/Question1467387.html
But the usual suspects dismiss it because the guy giving it has links with BNP/NF etc. The Left have to like the person before they cam acknowledge or even listen to what they say. So if Nelson Mandella said it fine.

[Zacs-Master]

Aaaaaaand there you go again, branding anyone who has a different view a leftie. You're a walking cliche.

[ummmm]

And the usual suspects....which we still don't know who they are!

Jack, //intolerant rhetoric//

Read lindapalmara’s link. Why expect anyone to tolerate it?

Ummmm, //I have never seen anyone on this site defend barbaric behaviour.//

I have – and I’ve seen plenty more who seem to think we should tolerate it.

[Peter Pedant]

because there are too many
no one has condemned the 99 deaths at Bataclan on AB but I am sure none of us would liked to have been at the concert

Today on the comment on Sharly ebdo - ze Fransh leddy said to the english commentator - you anglo dont distinguish like the french do between Muslims and fundamentalists - we do - we know they are different

I thought she was gonna mention 'laicite' separation of church and state which is a big thing over there even tho la belle France is a catholic country, but I think she thought - 'o god too early for the hung-over anglos on a sunday morning'

[jackthehat]

naomi - I was referring to TTTs intolerant rhetoric 'in general'.

[ummmm]

Whoever you mean, Naomi, are you seriously saying they defended throwing a gay man off a building? Or have they defended other barbaric acts.

I would have thought that defending such things would lead to being banned.

[Khandro]

I think Donald would have it covered;

[naomi24]

Jack, I know you were. I simply don’t understand why you think he should be tolerant of anything whatsoever on this issue.

Ummmm, I’ve seen people here defend all sorts of things, and if they’ve not openly defended it, they’ve certainly been reluctant to criticise it – which amounts to the same thing.

[jackthehat]

naomi - I didn't say he should be tolerant of 'anything' on this issue.......why do you think I did?!?

[naomi24]

Jack, //F(riends) O(f).....Jihad/Daesh/Criminal Scum....terms which TTT throws out to all those not agreeing with his own brand of intolerant rhetoric. //

You said it. I don't think I'm mistaken.

[jackthehat]

I'm sure you'll have noticed that that ends with '....Criminal Scum' who have nothing to do with any Muslim issues.

[naomi24]

Jack, Indeed I have - but the first two have everything to do with Muslim issues. I'll ask again. Why expect anyone to tolerate it?

[mushroom25]

//no one has condemned the 99 deaths at Bataclan on AB //

no, they haven't. but there have been several instances of the 99 deaths being excused by reference to the west's interventioninst foreign policy in the middle east. but that would appear to be labour party policy now (pat mcfadden got the sack for criticising it), so maybe it is ok for islamists to attack non military western targets?

[jackthehat]

No-one expects anyone to tolerate the barbaric acts carried out in the name of Islam....but it should be possible to discuss/debate them without throwing out insults?

[naomi24]

//No-one expects anyone to tolerate the barbaric acts carried out in the name of Islam....//

It seems to me some do.
