Everyone knows that. At least they don't pretend to be unbiased. They nail their flag to the mast for everyone to see and I think that is a good thing. And propaganda is overrated in my opinion.

They are not more racist than elsewhere its just they have more chances of being racist. If you live in a society where 55% are white and 44% are black then, of course, there will be more racism than a society where 95% are white. Racism stems from fear and the larger the number the more the...

Depends on the situation entirely. It was okay for Britain to bomb Nazi Germany but it wasn't okay for Nazi Germany to bomb France. Yes, if by lesser countries you mean dictatorships. History has nothing to do with the moral right of the present. Just because someone did something wrong in...

To be honest I couldn't care less if you think my reason is good or not. I think it is good and that is all that matters. You may want me to give you another "good" reason but I won't. My reason is good enough. Why should I oppose any other freedom than the one I have specially said I oppose...

So parents should be allowed to send their kids to any school as long as it isn't what...? You placing restrictions on what kind of schools should be allowed is fine but me placing restrictions on what kind of schools should be allowed is wrong? Is this where I should say 'Strawman alert'...

Does that mean the same as saying she has a great personality? Did the Puratins want to restrict the manufacture of tin so that only pure tin was made? Hell would freeze over. Even Muslim fundamental extremist schools advocating terrorism against the United States?

Firefighters striking, NHS failing, rail network overcrowded and outdated, dramatic increase in gun crime, overworked and underpaid public sector workers, racial tension, terrorist threats, immigration problems, massive government borrowing, huge increases in council tax, traffic congestion...

Just wondering, when was the good 'ole days of British comedy? When was its high point? When did it peak? A lot of people think the Office is funny (as seen in this poll) and therefore it wins a lot of awards. Simple. Haven't seen Perfect World but Coupling is funny but very patchy. And...

Haven't you been listening? Prosperity is just around the corner. Not necessarily, especially with the American Presidental election. A Republic simply means that you don't have a monarchy. A democracy means that the will of the majority is the country's will. You may think that is...

Oliver Cromwell ran a school paper?.:eek: My school took me to Alton Towers (theme park). What if they vote for those options to be taken away? I said the same thing about allowing women to vote in the 1920s. Lazyness. I assumed that was the same for practically everywhere. I...

I think our hormones have something to do with it as well. Yeah but isn't there an argument to be made that people have become desensitised (like with violence). So the more sex there is on television the less it effects us. Can I volunteer to be the guy who researches that one?

The Observer is a leftist newspaper? Obviously I am not that observant.

This is an example of not reading something carefully before commenting; Spot the difference? Depends on whether that 60% consider the issue an vote-deciding one. If Bush goes to war it doesn't mean that the 60% who don't want war won't vote for him in the next election.

:lol: Only in America... :goodjob: Democracy does work. I cracked my head open at school (didn't sue) and I was allowed adequate recovery time. Actually that does sound fair to me. However I, as you said, don't think we should do what is fair when it comes to education. I think we...

Still "Green Eggs and Ham"
