It was a clumsy attempt I suppose, to give you an idea of how I think about stuff, there was definitely no intent to patronise anyone.

No, there's plenty that I don't comment on, Zlatan thread being a recent example.
I could find you more examples it you'd like?

We don't know each other Sidney, but we have had conversations on the old ClaretsMad.
You've always come across as decent, and one of the better posters, which is why I've probably bitten a bit tonight, and been taken by surprise at your comments.
I know we all take in information differently, and although I perhaps disagree with your reasoning and thought process, who's to say I'm right and you're wrong. We're all different.
Im sure there wasn't any intention to come across as dismissive as you did.

Re: Paris gun attack
We all have the knowledge that our loved ones will die some day, still doesn't make it any easier to get over.
Whilst we are inundated with these kinds of attacks it's still important to talk about them. If we allow it to become normal then we take away from the problem.

Shocking as it may sound, I'm not saddened deep down either, I'm not wired the same way as most of you.
Would I be upset if one of my lot was involved?
Yes to a degree, but again it wouldn't be the same way as most of you lot would be.
It's difficult to explain, but I see the news report and keep on scrolling because it doesn't register as major news to me.

There are over 7 billion humans on this planet. The social engineering projects going on around the world will have collateral damage, extremely important to those directly affected, not so to the engineers. They sit above the maelstrom. A sort of detached interest. Think Jason and the Argonauts.

How could anyone possible argue with the statement I made? It is literally an undeniable fact that Islamic migration has enriched our culture. I was simply paying homage to this.

That was my point, that its inconceivable that anyone could even think otherwise, therefore to defy that and actually believe someone could disagree with that statement must be racist.Imploding Turtle wrote:I don't disagree with the statement, i disagree that that's what you think.
On a serious note, do you genuinely think that mainland Europe has been enriched by islamic migration?

Re: Paris gun attack
I think we've all been enriched economically, culturally, and socially by migration. I'm not sure what religion has to do with migration.

Re: Paris gun attack
It's not a dodge. Islamic migration isn't a thing. It's just called migration.
Explain to me what religion has to do with migration, and if your explanation isn't stupid then i'll answer your idiotic question.

Spain used to be a Muslim country, you know that don't you?
Muslims have been in mainland Europe for a very very long time, so I guess you're referring to recent events?

Yes I know how, in the same way other countries around the world were invaded and became christian / catholic countries.

Is this still rumbling on? It started off as a statement about a poor French copper being shot and ended up with us all finding out about the internal workings of poor Sidney's mind lol
To be honest I can kind of see his point. It's all become too familiar. I'm not a people person so I can kind of get his point. Anyhooo.

Re: Paris gun attack
The only reason that the Arabs poured across Europe in the 8th century was the weakness (due to continual war) of the Byzantine and Persian Empires AND that they were unified. There has been nothing even remotely comparable ever.
Anyone who isn't mental think Europe is weak enough for an Muslim takeover?
