How petty. PC gone OTT. If he said something about a fire in the corner because someone with ginger hair was standing there, nothing would have been said. I have hundreds of black friends as I work in Africa and most would have found that funny PROVIDING it was meant as I joke. Only yesterday I told the Joel Garner joke and had loads of them rolling around.
Dear dear dear. Custodial sentence ???? What a bizarre world we live in. For what it's worth, my personal view is that anything being made of it at all is totally absurd. Just another example of the crazy society we live in where we've been taught to take offence at the slightest thing.
The problem is that people have been abusing black people and pretending its a joke for years. And it wasn't one of his friends. Personally I think the law has to be like this and people need to obey it.
Holy Christ. I just skipped to 6:00, 7:30 and 8:30. That video is ****ing laughable. There's a bit where she's shaking her head a lot during a discussion, there's a bit where she wobbles her head in a crazy way (to show that loads of people are talking to her at once and that she is showing humoured surprise), there's a bit where she puts her fingers together and the narrator says "In a frankly painful position". Er. No it's not. At all. I'm doing it now. It's not painful. OMG! I just saw another bit where the guy talks about Michael J Fox's bug-eyed look being one which is an indication of Parkinson's. And then it goes to the bit at the convention where a load of balloons starts dropping from the ceiling and she goes bug-eyed with obvious, exaggerated "surprise" and "delight" (she's hamming it up a bit). The narrator calmly describes the "astonishing scene". Just. So. Dumb. And weird. Later he says "When this was shown to Parkinson's sufferers and their carers there was no doubt". What?! Is this guy really a doctor? You're using that as evidence?! Shockingly infantile stuff. This is really, really stupid stuff aimed at very credulous Republicans. It seriously sounds exactly like every conspiracy theory video I've ever seen. Loads of slowed-down video with a voice just talking absolute bollocks over the top as they try and fail to tell you that what you're seeing is somehow hugely significant. Lol! I just saw on the finger bit he's going on about how she moves her hands around a lot and that shows Parkinson (look! See! She's moving her hands!) and then how having her hand clutched to her chest shows Parkinsons (this is in slowed-down video and probably lasts about 2 seconds in real time if that). I could go on and on. Did you know that the Earth is flat and that humans never went to the moon and that Hitler is still alive? Amazing. Though maybe not if you watch a lot of this sort of stuff on YouTube.
So the vote is for 1. A used slightly defective brain called Clinton. or 2. An unused brain called Trump.
I don't follow American politics but I initially thought Trump was just a gimmick in the early days of his campaign, I even found him funny with the utter tripe he was spouting but the sheer fact there's a very good chance of him becoming president of the most powerful country in the world is an extremely scary thought. The worst thing for America is Hilary Clinton is the other option, I mean, ****... Just how has such a powerful country allowed two ****ing idiots to be in contention for it's next leader?!
I think because the real power players are not directly in sight (as they prefer) Look at Dick Cheney & Donald Rumsfeld these are the kind of powerful businessmen who really run the USA they are happy to have a sort of puppet (muppet) holding the office. They can then manipulate things how they want them. Corporations run the USA they employ politicians to sort the world in their image. Check out the film Syriana. please log in to view this image

Trump is so poisonous that George Bush Snr is voting for Clinton. It would be bad if it was any other Republican ex-President, but he lost to Bill. He'll be putting his mark next to the name that put him out of office.
If I had a bowlful of Skittles and told you that every single one of them was an utter headcase, would you take a handful? So why the **** did the Republicans nominate him then???
Just lucky its not 'Democratic' Repuplic of Congo Politics. Yesterday was the deadline for the President to name the date for the forthcoming General Election. The deadline came and went with no declaration. Opposition parties took to the streets in Kinshasa, erecting road blocks, setting fire to vehicles and attacking the police. The police fought back with live ammunition, 14 protesters were killed along with 3 police officers, one of which was burnt alive. Overnight the headquarters of all three main opposition parties were torched and burnt to the ground with two more people burnt alive. All of this is before a general election is called, a kind of pre-cursor, god help us when they go for the real thing.
They will but it's not a proper African election if you can't eliminate 50% of the opposition before election day.
Voter manipulation by slaughtering those who'd vote against you. I hope Trump's not paying too much attention. He isn't, of course, as he's not sure where Africa is, just that Obama came from there.
