    If this thread is really about your recent AH ban, there is a process to follow ... linked here ... I think you know this already.

    If this thread is really about a problem with "Irish slating and Catholic slating" ... I don't really have a strong opinion on that ... I'm not aware of it being a big problem ... but I'm willing to listen to any reasonable arguments.

    You know how if you say your brother or sister is a weirdo, they just raise their eyes and say something rude back. But if somebody outside the family says your brother is a weirdo, you would be very offended on his behalf. Its a bit like that.

    I am seeing a very anti Irish sentiment on this site.Its an absolute disgrace.

    Your opinion and you're entitled to it. It's a sign of the times, even old people are realising how rotten to the core Ireland really is, you know, torn between a world wide paedophilia gang and government corruption and the sell off of our culture by our leaders for a multicultural society to having armed police on patrol.

    And as everyone it out of work, too much time on many people's hands.

    I am in middle of the first,it was just an example to the thread.

    The argument is as i said.I see it as slating and insulting a whole country in the mannerism they do on AH.If you do it about another nationality you are immediately attacked or considered a racist.It offends my family my friends and the Irish people as a whole.Also people who believe in god the condescending comments and insulting posts that have been made about peoples faith.
    Then you have people who are not Irish also get in on the slagging of Irish and majority is about Irish women.What does that make them but they arent called on it because they say dont get me wrong i like Irish but and start to slate.

    It doesnt much matter what Ireland is or what bad points it has or the catholic church.Who is anyone to be slagging it off and then when someone brings forward comments about another nationality.Its considered wrong.
    Like for like? You can slag government thats not a direct slating Irish thing.
    The multicultural thing is not a sell off been honest,for me its ok.Other wise i wouldnt have the man i do :)

    "Loads of my friends are black/Muslim/Polish" is the new "I'm not a racist but..."
    .But yet its not allowed but anything goes about Irish.
    I'm not a fan of self-deprecating Irish threads either, but they are in a totally different context to the sort you made earlier and you have a long way to come if you don't realise that.

    Which of these two would you consider more offensive: A thread on an English forum entitled "What I hate about the Irish," or a thread on an Irish forum entitled "What I hate about the Irish?"

    Barr perhaps Muslims and thats very slight.
    Eh really? So a thread that suggests the most revered person in their faith may be a kiddie fiddler is slight to you?** Eh no. The religious in general get a fair old pounding once in a while.








    * is that a song lyric? I'm thinking simon and garfunkel.
    **The Muslim Boardsies have now all gone WTF? wibbs is pointing this out, while they look up the word for fcuking irony in Arabic. :D

    Rejoice in the awareness of feeling stupid, for that’s how you end up learning new things. If you’re not aware you’re stupid, you probably are.

    Very similar! The Boxer -

    If you see i referred to that thread in one of my posts.All religions in Ireland Irish Muslim also its insulting to,I find they dont get in on them threads so fast the ones who will get in on the catholic threads,and then go over to the Muslim thread and defend it.

    I dont disregard any insult to any nationality but the whole jumping on a person for making a few comments and generalizations and make assumptions and ban them when all done in a joke aswell(When it is obvious a thread wouldnt be made like that except in jest because one would know if serious you would get banned) .But slating Irish and personal insults go ignored and allowed?

    You think they're the same despite the different context? Pace out, there's not going to be any reconciliation of views here, methinks.

    Hence you must me omnipresent.

    Im here along time, i cant say i have even ever heard of most of the moserators on this site, let alone get to know them and have the time to develop a relationship that would be described as great.

    Perhaps im anti social.

    The internet is a cruel place Caseyann, this site is rather good at making sure that members time spent is a positive expierence, however sometimes you have to look within if there seems to be a pattern forming.

    According to the United Nations conventions, there is no distinction between the term racial discrimination and ethnic discrimination.
    Quote:
    An ethnic group is a group of humans whose members identify with each other, through a common heritage that is real or assumed. This shared heritage may be based upon putative common ancestry, history, kinship, religion, language, shared territory, nationality or physical appearance. Members of an ethnic group are conscious of belonging to an ethnic group; moreover ethnic identity is further marked by the recognition from others of a group's distinctiveness

    I would say calling Irish lazy and ugly etc..... is in breach of this.

    Caseyann, it is well known by now that you are A) A professional troll and/or B) completely racist.

    You got banned from AH for racism, get over it!

    Oh, and stop trying to defend your racist comments by saying "But all the others are doing it"

    I'm sorry, but are you 12?

    I don't assume anything, i have read many of your nonsense threads and posts, you constantly aim to wind people up in a way which has to be intentional.

    Oh, and mind my own business?..... On Boards? Seriously?
