April 24, 20187 yr Author meanwhile back in actual news mode: Unknown driver horribly kills people in Toronto. The internet gets a hard-on stating he was definitely a Muslim and blaming police and Canadian government for a cover-up. Then this: @hairykiwi420 Racists going silent now that the Toronto attacker isn't middle eastern, was an angry man, who frequented alt right sites and was angry because he couldn't get laid. An angry, right wing misogynist, Incel, as in Involuntary Celibate. An angry asshole who couldn't get laid Doesnt fit in with the agenda you see, so they dont condemn him, having been rabidly condemning him when they thought he was Muslim-y. Bit racist you see, and not remotely concerned about dead people and stopping nutters unless it's a black man or a Muslim man..... (It's usually a white man, or "terrorist" as I like to call them)

April 25, 20187 yr Author So your point is... he was a copycat killer? :huh: :unsure: No. My point is the Far Right attack the media, politicians and Muslims at every drop of the hat, and never ever ever ever ever ever ever ever attack racist far right white mass-murderers. I thought I made that pretty clear. Anyone else miss that central point that I stated quite clearly?
April 25, 20187 yr No. My point is the Far Right attack the media, politicians and Muslims at every drop of the hat, and never ever ever ever ever ever ever ever attack racist far right white mass-murderers. Would you expect them to? I wouldn't. I thought I made that pretty clear. Anyone else miss that central point that I stated quite clearly? That sounds like a rhetorical question to me. :mellow:
April 25, 20187 yr Author Would you expect them to? I wouldn't. That sounds like a rhetorical question to me. :mellow: Calling out lying racists is a worthy enterprize cos if one doesn't they spread their hate unchecked. OK they won't be reading Buzzjack, but it doesn't hurt to make others aware of how evil they are. Would you prefer we all made no comment on lying racists with genocidal aims?
April 25, 20187 yr Calling out lying racists is a worthy enterprize cos if one doesn't they spread their hate unchecked. Surely the main check on them is the impossibility of their views appealing to the 99% of people of decency & common sense. OK they won't be reading Buzzjack, but it doesn't hurt to make others aware of how evil they are. Would you prefer we all made no comment on lying racists with genocidal aims? Now that definitely is a rhetorical question! :)
April 25, 20187 yr No matter how you it it, it’s always been a a pattern. Republicans were all for background checks and protecting the people from guns when a Muslim shot up Pulse Nightclub and yet were all up in arms during Vegas which was exponentially worse, all because the shooter was a white man. And it doesn’t stop there. Boston Marathon. A white man. Sandy Hook. A white man. Parkland, Florida. A white man. Explain that.
April 26, 20187 yr Author famous black rapper criticises American (black) President, one of the greatest in living memory, and throws support around white racist President who excuses the KKK and calls for the deaths of innocent black children, before posing for photo with white men doing the white supremacy sign behind his back. Someone has lost the plot. News leaks out that the mountain in North Korea used for nuclear testing is collapsing in on itself with risk of contamination if used again. Suddenly the need to appear to be doing something positive in nuclear talks makes sense...

April 27, 20187 yr Author Ted Cruz (remember him? He will be consigned to history in November, so last chance to appreciate how dumb he is) has been tweeting a) complaining about Macron telling other countries (ie USA) what to do in their own country, and then immediately b) slagging off the UK government/NHS and holding up the USA as a model to follow when the little boy in question, having come from a poor family, would not have had ANY medical help whatsoever in the real USA, and just made worse than the likes of Cruz and his hateful fellow Republicans having lied to the American people about replacing the Obamacare with something better, rather than nothing at all. The thick twat doesn't even see himself contradicting himself with what he says, nor have an inkling about what the "American Dream" means to poor Americans.
May 3, 20187 yr Victory for free speech: Minister bans student trend of censoring controversial speakers in first intervention of its kind for 30 years Universities will be penalised if they allow students to shut down speeches Student groups are increasingly disrupting speeches they don't like Victims include Germaine Greer, Peter Tachell, and Jacob Rees-Mogg Feminists, Tory politicians, gay rights activists, even race campaigners targeted Student zealots will be banned from censoring controversial speakers on campuses following the first ministerial intervention on free speech in 30 years. Sam Gyimah, the universities minister, has announced tough new guidance which will see institutions disciplined if they allow valid debates to be shut down. He vowed to stamp out the 'chilling' trend of speakers being blocked from campuses simply because there is institutional hostility to unfashionable views. http://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-56...l-speakers.html AS usual, the Guardian puts a rather different slant on it... https://www.theguardian.com/education/2018/...e-speech-campus

May 7, 20187 yr I suggest a Carry On News thread for trivia like this....? Well, there is a 'General Whining' thread that could be bumped up. I'd start one called 'PC gone mad' except that the moderators would be unlikely to allow it. ;)
May 7, 20187 yr Labour's 'plans for two-tier press regulation that would favour supportive Guardian over other newspapers' would be illegal, warns a leading QC Antony White said proposals to punish papers would be 'struck down' by courts He said amendments tabled by Tom Watson would violate human rights laws Mr Watson's measures would apply to any newspaper that refused to sign up to the state-approved Press regulator http://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-56...leading-QC.html Attack on papers spares Guardian Labour's bid to force newspapers into state-backed regulation contains an extraordinary loophole that would exempt just two national newspapers – the Labour-supporting Guardian and Observer. Proposals put forward by deputy leader Tom Watson would expose all national newspaper groups to punishing legal bills every time someone chose to sue them, even if the newspaper won. It would apply to any newspaper that refused to sign up to the state-approved regulator Impress, funded almost entirely by ex-Formula 1 boss Max Mosley, whose racist past was exposed by the Mail. Mr Mosley has also given £540,000 to fund Mr Watson's private office. Almost all national and local newspapers, including the Daily Mail, are members of Ipso, which is free of state control and operates an arbitration scheme giving the public means to sue newspapers without the ruinous cost of going to court. The Guardian and The Observer have no independent regulator and no arbitration scheme. But Mr Watson's proposed new law would not apply to a publisher that ploughs all profits back into the business. That would lift the threat of extra legal costs from The Guardian and The Observer, which are controlled by the Scott Trust. Its rules say that if the loss-making papers move into profit the money would be put back into their newspaper and website operation. It would mean national newspapers that supported Labour but do not belong to an independent regulator and do not offer arbitration – the two most persistent demands of critics of the Press – would not be hit by the proposed punitive costs regime.
May 7, 20187 yr Leek butcher warned by police over 'risque' adverts http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-england-stoke...dshire-43961019 I'm delighted to see that there is so little for the police to do in Staffordshire that the chief inspector can spend his time on non-issues like this.

As for "leading QC" Antony White, anyone here heard of him before? Still, it's interesting to see the Daily Mail so keen to see a proposal ruled out on the grounds that it would violate human rights law.
