Well it may not be, you being a save the earth kinda guy.

Would you like me to mention more evil periods of modern times that GB helped quell... 

No, I want you to admit what you said was wrong and stop deflecting from making that admission. But I doubt you have the courage to do that.

You should have asked your forefathers who loves stealing , who left their own land to steal and scam other countries,  your queen was also a scam

"Your Queen was a scam", can you explain that....?

What is your opinion on the Nazi Holocaust sites, which are kept as "statues" to the past...?

 

Yes....good point. 

 

When I was in Phnom Penh one of the popular tourist attractions was Toul Sleng genocide museum.

 

I did not go myself since I thought it was in bad taste. Lots of back packers and tourists going for something to do and to gawk at pictures of the unfortunate victims who I feel deserve more respect.

 

I felt at the time that the place should be demolished out of respect to the victims and the place turned into a memorial park with maybe a memorial wall with the names of the victims and a small museum of pictures to explain what had previously stood on the site. The bones should be given a decent Buddhist burial in a common grave.

 

These victims need to rest in peace not be the source of revenue and entertainment.

Now they know and instead of simply complaining online, they are taking real action.

 

Isn't that something more than just being a snowflake?

If they weren’t at Oxford they would be calling them dossers, the great unwashed etc etc so snowflake is about the best they can come up with on this occasion.

False comparison. I see them more as museums. And I'd put a lot of these statues in the fantastic slavery museum in Liverpool to keep them on show as reminders not in celebration.
Would you support statues of Hitler as a memorial to the Holocaust?
