    So that's your solution, that I stay away?

    I'm afraid that's a wholly ridiculous suggestion much like the rest of your fatuous argument.

    You have neither the wit nor the intelligence to comprehend it would appear, so I'll tell you what everyone else has been telling you on this forum (when they are not laughing up their sleeves at your inane ramblings). You are living in a fantasy world.

    I just said the songs "Offend" me, so who are you to decide what is offensive to people? Who made you the moral guardian or Chief of the thought police? You don't have the right to tell people what should and should not offend them, you do not grasp that concept.

    Please don't respond because I will be compelled to counter, even though I know it will be a waste of time. People like you are the problem because like the GB, you seem to know a lot about nothing in particular, people like you will continue to dismiss the complaints of other people and carry on regardless despite the potential consequences.

    Maybe one day you will understand but I doubt it will be anytime soon.

    I keep jumping in and out of this so forgive me if I rehash

    Surely banning something just because it is offensive opens up the problem of people saying things are offensive just to get them banned

    Dev, IRA songs offend you....however the word HUN offends Medro, yet even today i saw you use it in a post

    Will you stop using the word as it is offensive?

    Is it only offensive if It is racist or sectarian?

    Why is that worse than calling someone a ****

    What do the RA have to do with football? The same as the catalonian language does or basque separatism does....nothing directly, but football was and is somewhere like minded individuals could gather in groups and have their say on unpopular or banned matters.

    You can't insinuate people who disagree with you are stupid or are stupid because they sing controversial songs

    I find that if people are offended by something, it can obsess them and it only encourages the offenders....girvan loyal anyone?

    Sometimes you just need to forget about it before you turn into rev paisley

    1: I never said songs about the IRA should be "banned" did I? No, you imagined that same as you imagined I used the word "Hun" in a post today.

    2: Simply not true, you imagined it.(see above)

    3: How is using the word "Hun" on a football forum the same as using it at a football ground in a song? Have I told Medro he has no right to be offended like the Green Brigade and you and SuperHoops seem to think? Not at all, I debated the point that "context" was key. "Hun" to me simply means a Rangers supporter, what are the GB singing about when they mention the IRA? Am I somehow taking their songs out of context?

    4: Of course it is'nt, that's exactly the point I am making.

    5: It's no different and that's the point you seem to be missing. It is offensive, If I call someone a ****, has he no right to be offended?

    6: I don't give a monkey's what other clubs fans sing, I don't follow those teams, and I don't care if their fans drop them in the ****, however I reserve the right to be offended.

    7:I never "insinuated" that people who disagree with me are idiots, what I am saying quite openly is that people who preach to others on what they should and should not find offensive are ****ing morons.

    8:Thanks for that insight but that's like saying the offended are as guilty as the offender. Utter hogwash.

    9:Again, thanks for the moral lesson and guidance but that's not likely to happen.

    I started a response on your behalf but I thought better of it. It seems the only possible way to conduct a discussion on these forums is to just make up what you think someone said.

    I am going to do that in future I think.

    Remember that time when all the Huns thought Paul McBride had apologised for saying the SFA was like something out of Monty Python?
    He hadn't apologised at all, but they just assumed he had. I always feel like that on this forum.

    O/k dick you win. I have no intention of been the moral Guardian or Chief of the thought Police. I leave those roles to yourself Dev as it seems, in your eyes,
    you are the only person fit to do them.
    The one thing I will say that if I want to add further posts to this or any other tropic I will and you replying or not will not be a deciding factor.
    Let us go back a few years to Dev's Celtic Park, as quiet as a graveyard and no atmosphere.
    Along comes Neil Lennon and the Green Brigade and we have the thunder back, what a difference.
    Dev wants Tony back and no singing.

    No, ask Dev it's been going on since SPN. If you can't make up blatant lies and ignore basic facts then you're finished on here.

    Basically Dev, Medro, superhoops and Rebel are having an argument about singing IRA songs and I'm stoking the fires for fun.

    It was about Phil McGiollaBhain telling us to stop singing the rebel songs and it is now about not reading what Dev has written, but have a guess at a vague approximation and take it from there.
