What An Awful Country To Live In.

We also have mimes here.

To the rest of the world, I apologize.

Comrade Burns, wondered when you'd turn up.

No, there are no similar instances in the USA,....

Of course not.....

Further proof of the need for a 'shaking one's head in utter disbelief' emoji.

Oh, you. I see what you did there.

So are you still trying to defend the repressive British government's imprisonment of people it disagrees with?

Thankfully we still live in a free country here. Citizen vs. Subject, should look it up some time. The difference is who holds the leash, and who wears the collar. Here in the States, government wears the collar. But it is very clear who wears the pants in your country.

If that's how you like it.... enjoy becoming a minority in your own nation though. Apparently you don't think Great Britain should remain "British." I'm sure you'll enjoy what little remains of your culture once all is said and done (assuming your country doesn't splinter into 2 dozen 'semi-autonomous' regions). Just don't expect us to come and clean up your mess, you are on your own.

Meanwhile, us nationalists will continue looking out for our own country, our own people and our own problems.

...and there are no similar instances in the US. We have no such thing as "hate speech" here, it doesn't exist.. there is no such crime. You are free to be as "hateful" as you want and there isn't a single person who can stop you. Just how it should be.

But hey, like I said above, enjoy your version of "paradise." (AKA dystopian nightmare) Maybe we can talk when the majority of your nation gets fed up and decides to replace the failed state with something that actually works for them (and not just for leftists and foreigners)

It was paid for by The Road to Power, a white supremacist group

So nothing to do with either party, just some tiny group of creeps with mommy issues.

I have no idea what this has to do with the US in general or either party. It would be incredibly dishonest to suggest this has anything to do with normal politics or the Republicans. In fact it would be an out and out lie to do so, which is worse than any robocall.

Freedom of speech comes with earplugs and phones that can be hung up easily. You control offensive speech, then you start having to decide what speech is offensive and to who and eventually total loss of freedom as they chip, chip, chip away at them.

The day ever arrives where we can no longer stand in front of the White House fence and call the President names, it's over in fact. At that point the government becomes like royalty and we become subservient slaves.

Having said that, the people who put those calls out are the scum of the earth.

Note how you suspiciously left out the rest of my quote. I'll quote it properly for you.

No, there are no similar instances in the USA, not unless someone has been threatened with violence.

Now's the time for your shakes head emoji, or maybe head in sand emoji.

You mean trousers. I once was corrected by a Brit. The only pants they wear are under-pants.

a reply to: Propagandalf

It is the same reason he not-so slyly dropped the paranoid Russian-hysteria "comrade" in there. Despite the fact that I despise communist/socialist filth, and personally feel they don't deserve to breath the same O2 as the rest of us.

Typical dishonest tactics from the radical extremist far left. Not surprised in the least, you get used to it when trying to discuss grown up issues with folks that have no clue what they're talking about.

a reply to: Freeborn

Threats are not even the same topic?

You're confusing offensive speech with a threat. Threatening to burn someones house down is hardly what this is about. The Guardian does not seem to understand the difference either.

a reply to: LogicalGraphitti

Thank you

Sad part is, I love Great Britain's culture and people. But a small minority of leftists (aided by their co-conspirators in the UK state) are attempting to subvert the will of the People by leveraging paranoid/false "Russia" claims (just like they tried - and failed miserably - at doing here in the States) and by delegitimizing or outright arresting any opposition.

That's OK. Every spineless coward shows their true colors eventually.

Official offended "posterior hurt" report

I have crucial news from the front lines of hypocrisy and sore rear ends

I just spoke with my Muslim immigrants neighbors, and they confirmed they not only weren't offended by the phrase "mealy mouth" but that they didn't even know what it meant.

That makes two of us

a reply to: alldaylong

There was definitely a time when the UK was more civilized, but alas, that time has passed.

The whole world is a bucket of savagery these days, if you ask me. Geography is irrelevant.

Not really sure why anyone would vote for Abrams to run a state anyway. She can't even run her own finances right.

A fine point you make.

I recall a neat song by an American musician from years back which had a line that applies to this scenario:

"He can't even run his own life, I'll be damned if he'll run mine"

I disagree with my government on almost everything.....so did 18,529,704 other people at the last election, none of us have been arrested, censured or sanctioned for doing so.
And I voice my dislike of them and their policies quite loudly and on an almost daily basis....still no thought police knocking at the door.

The rest of your post is sentimental, sanctimonious bollocks.

I've been told you can do half decent renditions of Bella Ciao and The Red Flag nowadays.

All right all right, I'll give you points for the clever insertion of those two songs (which caused me to promptly Google It)

But don't tell anyone. It'll betray my Cool conservative exterior

a reply to: JBurns

I agree with you; assimilation into our existing nation's culture ... which includes, but not limited too, binge watching "real house wives of Chicago"; bitching about your employer while you do your cyber monday shopping on the company's computer; and getting histerical over your local sports team victory.

I haven't ment many immigrants, illegal or otherwise, who don't want to be part of this American dream.

Not really afraid of immigrants.

Na zdarovye.

When they say "love it or leave it" they miss the third option...

stay and make it better.

But yeah, the news media is constantly pushing endless controversy as it is now a purely for profit endeavor, mixed with undue government secrecy and corruption, in addition to partisan inflammation due in part to psy-ops from other countries invading our social media, and it's been a perfect storm of suckage.

Add to that the fact we have lost our industrial edge and unified spirit, and things are looking bleak for our hero.

Luckily most people are a paycheck away from starvation, so riots will be short lived.

Uh... wait... the OP is correct! So ... MASA ...make America sane again (so that includes South and Central America, too, right?).

add: though the fact racist scum are not hiding in the shadows, anymore, does point a big finger at certain leaders who lack in the foresight and wisdom dept. But boy, is he good at media manipulation and institution demolition!

Would You opt for their Healthcare or no more calls EVER? I'm in better shape now @55 then when I played pro baseball and way better shape than when I was a cop in Ca. so I'd have to ponder that question...
