Breaking News - Allegedly 10 people killed at office of satirical magazine in Paris

Agree Riverwalk. Reading that back, that was pompous.

Firstly I am not shouting, why would I?

I am afraid I do think your post was obscure , I have no earthly idea to whom you were referring , why don"t you name names .

I appreciate your effort in trying to make your posts clearer in the future

To clarify Nonu I was referring to soontobe.

HTH

Firstly NONU, will you please refrain from SHOUTING

There was nothing obscure in my post that surely it was obvious to whom I was referring.

It,appears it was too much to ask of you so, point taken and I will endure to make my posts much clearer for you in future.

Well SOUTRA is not PRETTY OBVIOUS to me.Perhaps AGUS would like to name names . Cannot think why she doesn"t

So glad you stepped in , as per. HOWEVER , am still mystified , not nice to be ambiguous IMO.

biting my tongue

Wow! What have I stumbled into? Any hoo, I wondered if any one was aware that a Canadian muslim by the name of Jerry Reddick has decided to push the boundaries of free speech and post jokes about the holocaust? Just when you thought bad taste had reached an all time low. His twitter account has been taken down, and he has been arrested. At least nobody was killed for it I hear some utter.
On the same news site I was on, I read that a prominent jewish Rabbi has requested that EU legislation be reconsidered to allow Jewish community members to carry guns. Just to protect themselves and their property. Where is this going to end?

I thought it was pretty obvious nonu given that agus quoted from the post in question, so not too obscure or hard to work out to whom the remark was addressed.

AGUS who are you referring to, why not be bold enough to say who you are addressing your remarks to. Don"t think there are that many mind readers on G/N

Probably to much to ask , Hey-Ho

Coming from someone who is free to practise her religion and free to publicly talk about it whenever and wherever to then tell us there is no true freedom is completely illogical.

Neither do I appreciate you telling another poster, you think they are bright enough nor your pompous remark regarding what you worked out decades ago.

Jut how many angels can dance on a pin?

Well I am not prepared to deny the existence of free will, is anybody else? Are our lives entirely pre-ordained? Without free will there can be no sin or redemption as we are not the architects of our fate.
And what on earth (pardon the bad pun ) do you mean by on Earth, or below earth or above Earth??

The tosh quotient is getting out of hand here Are we rational, intelligent beings or not?

To return to Christianity for those who are believers,wasn't Jesus sent to set us free?
Getting close to heresy, soontobe!

Well, that's shut everyone up hasn't it?

And it was a bit pompous!

Because there is no freedom, true freedom, on earth or below earth or above earth.
Where could she go? Where can anyone go?

I worked this out decades ago. One small reason why I gave in to God.

And pompous with it.

IMO and based entirely on the quote, Dan Hodges is an idiot.

This is tragically and so wrongly getting far too personal. What a shame.

Why won't she soontobe?

thatbags, I think that you are bright enough to know that you may never be properly free.

Anyroad, the Mayor of Rotterdam is speaking to bullies so, on your own argument, you have no cause for complaint.

I have never bullied you, jings, and you told me to sod off on at least one occasion. The first time I was quite upset. My use of bollocks is for emphasis. it isn't directed at anyone.

That was to Bags.

When I have said things in the past on this forum, it has been because some posters were really horrible. In fact, verging on the attempt to bully. Recognise any of that?

Thank God Gransnet has changed since then.

I'm not interpeting the fuck off attitude with the Enoch Powell attitude of "send them home to their own countries". Perhaps I should be but I'm not. I'm interpreting that fuck off with the comment higher up Hodges' article saying that it's just tough if jihadists don't like Western values; they'll just have to lump it because we aren't giving them up in spite of their violence and barbarism.
