Prince Harry

[DanB]

Is it wrong that I don't go to funerals if I can help it?

I did'nt go to my friends funeral, but I did pay my respects, he asked me to ride a wave for him (fellow surfer died of cancer at 30y/o) , I did that.
Can I not pay my respects in my own way?
Do I not have that right? Am I a bad person for that?

Jonno

wtf as this got to do with your suggestion of wiping Hitler from history?

By remembering him you aren't paying yor respects you're learning about teh evil and educating on what is blatantly unacceptable and ensuring it can't happen again

No, he was at a private fancy dress party.

No one should have seen it, a stand up comic does it for the public, I think there is the peverbial nail being hit on teh head

Jonno

He's constantly watched by the media, it's how his fancy education and lifestyle are paid for.

There ain't no such thing as private for him, that's the price he pays for being a prince.

I couldn't care less.

You stated earlier that wearing a swastika was OK.

Whoa whoa at what point did I make that statement?

I have said numorous times in this thread he was wrong to do it, my whole argument is against the overeaction of the public and the need for him to be punished for it.

@Dan...... I know what's right and wrong and personally would prefer not to be reminded of it, I know the history of the war, I know what happend, I have learnt all I wish to learn on the subject.

You know as well as I do that he was not mocking them.

I dont know because I was not there.

Bollocks. I couldn't give a flying fuck about what you think about the public outcry, I wouldn't have batted an eye and haven't referred to it.

Scroll up or click the link for my post highlighting your view with which I objected.

Of course, subsequently you decided that it's bad to wear it. That's a good thing, I feel all warm inside

oh nos its a nazi

Nothing in his life is private, you and i well know that

I visited two camps with gaschambers in poland, now musea.

That visit is printed in my memory forever; the pictures shown were too shocking

for words.

I lived with a jewish family for several years.

My "foster"-grandma lost 72 relatives during the war.

I don't give a fuck about some dork Harry.

Anyone wearing a swastika(apart from movies or stageplays) for fun(When it

is used as a Nazisymbol.), should be punishable by law.

And the idea to let this Harry-character visit auswitch, is a good idea.

After he did some time in jail, preferably in very bad conditions.


Let us never say again: Wir haben es nicht gewusst.

Wearing one of these doesn't necessarily mean that you are a nazi.

It's also about context, hitler was a thief who couldn't even dream up his own symbol, so he had to corrupt something pure.

It's almost comparable to stealing the crucifix, as a symbol.


That's the flipped up thing, many only remember it for the evil deeds the nazis did, so the nazis managed to spit on buddhism. Which isn't nearly as bad as trying to wipe out every follower of judaeism but it's still a crime.


EDit: I blame people who keep wearing it like that harry character did for perpetuating this, they keep churning up emotion like this and adding more negtivity to the symbol in the eyes of the public.

You are right.

I correct my above statement with the addition:

When it is worn as a Nazisymbol.
