fringo Posted October 24, 2014 Share Posted October 24, 2014 Why? Well it's either just a sick attempt at fishing or just plain sick. Either way, pretty sad and low brow. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
redstevie007 Posted October 24, 2014 Share Posted October 24, 2014 Why are you interested in another man's cock? Is that what all those months away with the army does to you? Creep Ya phanny. And I'm not in the army. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
redstevie007 Posted October 24, 2014 Share Posted October 24, 2014 Well, am I ever sorry to have started this thread. Ah, come on, there's always one or two daft wee attention seekers - it's the TAMB. It's the risk you take when starting a contentious debate.

France here we come Posted October 24, 2014 Share Posted October 24, 2014 If you don't understand why, there's no point in trying to explain it to you. It's basic human decency that's involved. You're certainly entitled to your opinion laddie but just because it doesn't mirror yours, that doesn't mean it's out of order. Well it's either just a sick attempt at fishing or just plain sick. Either way, pretty sad and low brow. Again, you may disagree with me but that doesn't make my opinion "sick". I'd be interested to know your view on Simon and his friends invading foreign lands, bombing their children and raping their women. That is "sick" to me but maybe it's ok in your book, and again, you're entitled to that view. Ya phanny. And I'm not in the army. Ok Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Squirrelhumper Posted October 24, 2014 Share Posted October 24, 2014 What a sad thread. Normally folk who go out of their way to be offensive online are utter shitebags in real life who wouldn't dare say similar things in mixed company in pub in case they got a sore face.

nelbo009 Posted October 24, 2014 Share Posted October 24, 2014 Ignoring the utterly c*ntish remarks of a certain poster, when it comes to the poppy, it's each to their own. I have no problems with those who won't wear it because of the way it's essentially been bastardised in recent years; but for me, it is and always will be about remembering the fallen in WW1 & WW2. Having been to Ypres a couple of years back, and with both my grandads serving in WW2, I want to remember their sacrifice; and for that I always wear a poppy. Each to their own though - just don't act like a bellend and make attention-seeking w*nker remarks if you choose not to wear one. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

phart Posted October 24, 2014 Share Posted October 24, 2014 The only "war crimes" that british troops committed in the Falklands was an isolated incident of executing captured soldiers, which has happened in every conflict that's lasted more than 10m minutes. Even an Argentinian General investigating the case on his side said it was not the norm but under extreme stress, lack of sleep etc it happens in every conflict.

Edit to say: I mean guys/gals on the TAMB who are/were forces I don't 'get' the white poppy. I instinctively see it as a 'look at me, ask me why I'm wearing this' gesture. I realise that's probably off the mark and apologies to anyone who wears one, but there's no point in me denying that's how I feel about them. It certainly frustrates me that because of our politicians (of the last 30 years or so in particular) the genuine gesture of buying a poppy in remembrance of those who died in conflict has been twisted and diluted. It's a shame but there you go. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Flure Posted October 24, 2014 Author Share Posted October 24, 2014 It would appear that "France here we come" has been banned. I apologise to everyone for starting this thread and allowing the platform for him/her to post such a disgusting thing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Flure Posted October 24, 2014 Author Share Posted October 24, 2014 I don't 'get' the white poppy. I instinctively see it as a 'look at me, ask me why I'm wearing this' gesture. Isn't that true of any badge or totem that someone wears? I wore a "Yes" badge. I now wear a "45" badge. In the past I've worn a "CND" badge and a "Vote Labour" badge. Wearing badges means you're trying to say something. Whether it be a red or a white poppy. Nowadays, it appears, not wearing a poppy is making a statement too. Even if you're not.
