to want HATE campaigns against foreigners in the popular Press to stop...

Nelliemoser Why, when you deleted your other post to POGS claiming that she is a racist , do you now come back with this rubbish?
Anybody who says 'you appear to me to be racist' IS saying that, so no wriggling out of it.Disgraceful of you, as POGS has never shown even a hint of racism in her views in many threads over the years.

Free speech? A free press?

As well as the issue of free speech. We have laws to prevent people inciting hatred etc. Not to stop free speech but to try and keep our society a happier and safe place.

And be thankful for them.

What I said was "you appear to me to be racist. That is the impression I get from your views on a number of threads over the years. That is a totally different remark from accusing you of being a racist about which I have no evidence.

Tegan has had the same response.
"less intelligent people might actually believe those lies and use them to reinforce their racist views"

Tegan has made no accusations what so ever. "That POGS or anyone else is less intelligent."

People should read exactly what has been said.

This is why police, Solicitors. Newspapers etc should have to be so very careful how they say things so they are not wrongly accused and sued for defamation.

Haven't you read the Lego statement about their toys jalima?

Minecraft is OK I think Candlegran if you want to buy Lego, that's what I bought for DGS

However, due to the dual standards Lego appear to be operating I may have to review my purchasing power this Christmas.

That is in no way a defence of any headlines in the DM which I did not see anyway.
Or of anyone who uses a mobile phone when driving.

Candlegran of course not - but he could be tempted to read the Daily Mail.

Lego needs to come down from the moral high ground and look at how its warlike toys are influencing young minds.

But that would mean less profit .....

I've just read that the CO OP is going to review where it advertises.

Oh! I've just seen the giant gavel in his other hand - the man's armed to the teeth (which we can't see because he's got that fixed grimace on his face...)

It's got "rapid fire stud shooters". And a sword is mentioned somewhere.

Ooh heck! Am I turning my grandson into an aggresive monster by buying him some of this for Christmas? Nexo Knights But he loves his Lego!

It's not a very flattering image, is it?

Sir Terence hasn't got that many wrinkles and is better looking altogether.

from POGS post

"I am accusing those who repeatedly belittle, sneer , make disparaging remarks at any opportunity against people who read the Daily Mail, The Sun any paper THEY assume beneath their choice of reading material because of their belief they are more intelligent.
I rant against the newspapers "way" of presenting news. Not the readers.
Now read my comments below.

It looks like a long, thin truncheon to me!

Ana it doesn't have a point on the end so it may not be a sword

Charming! You're on a roll today, Nelliemoser...

what was that all about?

They still do, they are not issued but they have to buy them.
Not sure if they have to trail them, like RN swords

Can someone on GN show me exactly where on GN someone has said another poster has actually called a DM reader stupid.

It's all very well to say that some DM readers on here "feel" they have been verbally put down or that they feel it has been suggested they are stupid etc.

Unless a poster has ever actually said on here I think that you are stupid etc because you are a DM reader, it is probably the way you percieve youself.

It may well be meant to be a judge, but it reminds me of a Marine from the film Pirates Of the C.

Not a pirate.. suzied but a Marine! They had swords.

That's a bloody long gavel!

Did a pirate really have a wig and gavel?

I think the figure is meant to be a marine( the army of the Navy) under King George!
Think of Pirates Of The Carribean.

I think roses post is on the right thread

Does the judge come with a Lego courtroom, jury, barristers, defendants, witnesses etc etc - otherwise really boring.

ps I am sure that Terence Etherton knows better as a former member of the Olympic fencing team than to wave a fencing sword without a mask, jacket, glove

Don't do it, Lego Terence!!
