Mandela Ill. Who cares?

[number 6]

OEJ you are way too kind to the racists on here mate.

[one eyed jack]

What would the point be in being nasty to racists?

I dont feel the same way to racists as they do to people of colour. If I ever hurt a racist physically you can be sure it was in self protection and not hatred.

Would i save a racist from harm? Yes I would. One unwittingly did it for me when I was a kid and I never forgot that.

I'm convinced most of the comments of late are trying to get attention and highlights those individuals insecurities. It would explain why its the same people starting the same kind of posts which get the same answers. Why do they keep doing it?

The whole Mandela as terrorist thing can be ascribed to one mans hero is another mans terrorist.

Arginald probably wouldve saw the runaway slave / rebel Nat Turner as a murdering terrorist too. I would say he was a freedom fighter in every sense of the word

Nat Turner was the black Spartacus. Thats how much i hold the guy in esteem.

Mandela is no different to any warrior protecting his territory/ his country /his home/ his family...Thats what resonates with people who support him

Plus I know the easiest way to wind up a racist is to see a person of colour and their day is just ruined already . You got to feel sorry for people like that.

It wouldnt stop me from using violence if one was to mistakenly take my niceness for a weakness though

[Don Roobles]

not like me though

nothing but Pork

Will you feel the same way when Gerry Adams or Martin McGuinness are on their death beds?

[Lizard]

Maybe not, but some people will.

Black or white, I cant deny any mans passion or motive to defend with what he feels right

The IRA were terrible for what they did but lets not forget what gave birth to those actions in the first place Essex Lad.

Yes they hurt you bad and you suffered losses. Thats what happens in a shitty world where people fight. No side is any more right for it thats why war is madness.

There are people who see those people like Mandela. I just think the skin colour makes a big difference to some peoples way of thinking about it that way.

[Essex Lad]

I don't understand why the skin colour makes any difference at all. A member of a terrorist organisation is a terrorist whatever his colour or that of his victims.

[andy at handiwork]

I will have a word with him next pint we have.

[Flat_Eric]

Is he OK again now? Not heard any updates on him for a few days.

Do you see the British Empire...colonialists as terrorists? Was Great Britain built on terrorism and/or victimising (stealing from) others?
