'I'm blowing myself up for a generic terror cause'

[Old Greg]

I like the idea of realistic enactments. And are those complaining saying God isn't great? He's amazing!

I definitely want the Met to simulate the rescue of a kidnapped PM. He could be nobbing a dead pig for ease of identification.

Not at all -just a logical consequence of what you've said.

You said that people are justified hating the police because of what happened in the past. That would be exactly the same as saying that people were justified in hating the Germans because of the war. How can agree with the former and disagree with the latter?

Where did I use the word "hate"?

Or don't you know the difference between "dislike" and "hate"?

And now you're reduced to arguing over individual words... "From SueEllen's argument, it seems she thinks it justified that some people hated disliked Germans even into the 1980s."

Oh look. No major shift in semantic content.

You're just anti-semantic!

You missed the point I was making.

Then again your Islamophobia is so high.

The police are disliked by a lots of people including due to how they have historically treated them over a generation ago and have a habit of having officers who still drag up the same prejudices e.g. Hillsborough. As they police by consent they need to avoid f***** off people from diverse backgrounds who will help them. This is why they apologised.

Funny how your want-to-be-helpful Muslims closed ranks over the hit and run killing of David Lees. You'll therefore appreciate that tensions are high following this ten-year wall of silence. If you want to pontificate about racial tension in Manchester, you need to know the fine points of it first. The owner of the car went down for two years for perverting the course of justice but nobody else has been charged.

There's a big difference between "The police" and "Germans" though, so it's not exactly the same at all.

The police is an organisation. You have to apply to be a part of it. You can resign at any time from it and no longer be a part of it. It's a choice to be part of it.

I'm not saying it's OK to hate/dislike the Police as a whole because of their actions, but it's far more justifiable than hating on an entire racial group or county.

Sorry got busy.
