gallo_se Posted March 27, 2006 Posted March 27, 2006 new tribute models for 2008? 83923[/snapback] I would be very careful with that topic, still a very hot and sensitive one in Italy
pete roper Posted March 27, 2006 Posted March 27, 2006 I would be very careful with that topic, still a very hot and sensitive one in Italy 83940[/snapback] Given the fact that I'm proud to say that there were probably a handfull of Mandello workers there when they strung the bastard up and the whole lakes region was a hot-bed of anti-fascism I'd say that this is in extremely poor taste. Having said that it has to be remembered that most people a generation, or in some cases less, old than me see the lessons of the 20th century as pretty old hat. My feeling is that they are poorly educated and ignorant, that doesn't mean that they won't have to repeat the sad lessons of history all over again. I just hope I'm far enough removed that I die before the repercussions of such stupidness come home to haunt me. of course my kids will have to cop it Pete
Guzzirider Posted March 27, 2006 Posted March 27, 2006 If those photos are real, then I expect the owner is too shit scared to leave his bike parked anywhere in public. Guy

Guy 83942[/snapback] Depends where he or she lives. I can't see it being a problem here, its pretty funny in my opinion, but then, I never have been one for the PC lobby.

Guest AdamofKC Posted March 27, 2006 Posted March 27, 2006 Here in the states, sometimes you'll see Harley or tough-jap cruiser bikers walking with tattoos covering their arms, chest and back. I wouldn't be suprised if one of em had a swaztika on him. It is unfortunate here that so many can get away for having things like that, all in the name of free speech. Boy, that guy or guys who own that bike pictured above better not come into one of the Italian neighborhoods here....

Putting up with the unpleasant and / or offensive is the price you pay for your own freedom to say and do as you please within the law. Once you start telling people how they ought to think and what opinions are acceptable or not is the slippery slope to totalitarianism. A slope we in the UK and you in the US have already started down.

dlaing Posted March 27, 2006 Posted March 27, 2006 How did SELF CENSORED justify his acts of war? Was it to spread Catholicism? Or just imperialism? He never acknowledged support for the holocaust, right? SELF CENSOREDjustified some of his support for war by saying he was stopping communism. Both SELF CENSORED andSELF CENSORED were pro corporation. Historians are quick to lable them as socialists, but no self-respecting socialist would find much if anything in common with their philosophies. Similarly, SELF CENSORED seems to have little to do with the Labor party, but there he is....I don't get it. Is labor to wishy-washy to get rid of him? or is he left wing domestically and fascist internationally? Or I guess people just buy the line that attacking SELF CENSOREDwas anti-fascist In the SELF CENSORED,SELF CENSORED holds on to Party support because he is faithful to the party. Is it a special political formula to rise through the ranks pretending to be SELF CENSORED wing, while serving as a puppet for SELF CENSORED corporations? (Don't get me wrong, like policeman, most corporations are not evil, some just have dirtier jobs)

We certainly see enough SELF CENSORED flags and PC reactions to them. (personally I am offended by the SELF CENSORED flag, but tolerate the freedom of speech and realize the flag flyers likely do not support slavery, anymore the SELF CENSORED are flown to represent Imperialism, War, Opression, and Torture.) Its all relative
