Mr. Harcourt:

Do you see any pattern here?

Anyone who calls people who don't agree with his politics "sheeple", has no business advising other people about anything - especially someone without an original thought in his head.

Here's a little test for Mr. Harcourt. It is somewhat dated and not current but the thought is still the same.

take the following multiple choice test.

Sirhan-Sirhan is/was Christian. He's also Palestinian. hmmm.

Anyone who calls people who don't agree with his politics "sheeple", has no business advising other people about anything - especially someone without an original thought in his head.

I would advise you to review that post and look at your logic and reasoning. Once done, I will respond.

To anyone who is not a politically correct clone, you are the "sheeple". People in glass houses...

To anyone who is not a politically correct clone, you are the "sheeple". People in glass houses...

In post#30, I said, "...I daresay that the sheeple that follow people like Cheney and Bush are not only blind, but selectively deaf too."

This was in response to YOUR claim that people of my supposed ideals are blind.

I suggest that when you then responded with, "Anyone who calls people who don't agree with his politics "sheeple", has no business advising other people about anything - especially someone without an original thought in his head.......", you are hung by your own petard in that, according to you, anyone who does not agree with YOUR politics is blind.

Furthermore, I suggested you review your post before I respond because of your irrational claim that, "....Anyone who calls people who don't agree with his politics "sheeple", has no business advising other people about anything ..."

"Anything" covers alot of ground, and nonetheless, there is no logical connection between what a person calls another, and his intelligence.

Your response to my suggestion of a review does not seem apt either.....but never mind.

you are hung by your own petard in that, according to you, anyone who does not agree with YOUR politics is blind.

Actually, there are people on here who do not agree with my politics, but who actually think for themselves that I have great respect for - sabaijai, sceadugenga and one or two others who tend towards liberal beliefs, but do not worship Michael Moore as a god. You just do not happen to be one of them.

Reminds me slightly of the National Socialist Party of America's plans to march through Skoke, Illinois. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/National_Soci...arty_of_America - for which they were represented by Jewish lawyers of the ACLU. The ACLU believes in freedom of expression even for Nazis. No right-wing group that I know of in the USA seems to do that.

I say nothing about this controversy.

I hate Illinois Nazis.

Yeah, that is really great that Nazi's have rights too. Maybe the ACLU should march for rights for suicide bombers next.

The ACLU very well might find an American Jew to represent Muslims for human rights, freedom of expression, etc. When the right-wing guy was asked to name right wing groups that defend First Amendment rights, he couldn't find ONE. ACLU membership now exceeds 500,000.

How many left wing groups defend the right of a child to be born?

He's pretty good.

Aren't we getting confused with the right to choose here?

Could we name a lefty group that wants abortion made compulsory?

there is even a facebook group with just under 800,000 people protesting against this march

http://www.facebook.com/#/group.php?v=feed...id=228021139869

I for one would quite happily stand shoulder to shoulder with any other ex or serving serviceman/woman and "police" this dispicible event should it be allowed to take place.

How many left wing groups defend the right of a child to be born?

OFF-TOPIC. And avoiding the question. So, is your honest answer "No right-wing group defends the First Amendment"? If you think I'm left-wing, I defend a child's right to be born, and never to be murdered. Do love to murder them after they're born? I hope not.

So, I have a mod, in what can be perceived as a warning by shouting at me in CAPS that we're OFF TOPIC then he continues to pursue the topic that's off topic. What am I supposed to do in this situation? Answer? Not answer? Ignore and post something on-topic, like...

Would the radicals who want to protest at WB be happy if a group with ideas they oppose protested in front of their mosque? Would the UK gov't even allow them to protest at the mosque in the first place?

Sorry to have 'shouted.' I can't answer your questions,

So, I have a mod, in what can be perceived as a warning by shouting at me in CAPS

Anything can be perceived in anyway the individual wants for maximum effect, I don't see it as a warning, just plain exasperation.

Would the radicals who want to protest at WB be happy if a group with ideas they oppose protested in front of their mosque?

I would suggest not.

Would the UK gov't even allow them to protest at the mosque in the first place?

I would suggest yes.

As I stated earlier, they have every right to protest and I agree that if they feel strongly enough, they should, however there has to be limits, if one of their congregation had died near the mosque, no a protest should not be allowed.

Notice on todays BBC news that they are calling off the planed protest.

Free speech has been curtailed! The terrorists win! We are no better than they are! Seriously, great news that's it's been called off.

They called it off themselves.

I never wanted the authorities to call it off because the right to free speech would impeded. These idiots want the introduction of Sharia law to the UK and the denial of a basic right could be seen as coming a step closer.
