0742Sheff Posted August 6, 2011 Share Posted August 6, 2011 I thought it was a humorous take on the makers views of women that wear the Burka. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mister M Posted August 6, 2011 Share Posted August 6, 2011 In a free country, offending people is bound to happen. or am i wrong? Even in closed societies I'm sure lots of people have disagreements. It's less to do with people's different backgrounds and cultures & more to do with the attitude of people. Everybody can't be the same nor should they. With regards to humour it depends on motivation & context as well as content. Some people can challenge others perceptions without being offensive. Yet some are simply offensive for the sake of it. That isn't being funny or clever - it's just being offensive. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bloomdido Posted August 7, 2011 Share Posted August 7, 2011 Several posts including some from the OP and Sheffvan were deleted on the 'told to pull my hood down' thread before it was closed. I have just figured. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mafya Posted August 7, 2011 Share Posted August 7, 2011 Is this relevant? Yes it is actually but it's a bit hard for you to understand the point being made so i won't bother trying to. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mafya Posted August 7, 2011 Share Posted August 7, 2011 Of course it is ....................... its called speaking your mind .

Quinnwok Posted August 7, 2011 Author Share Posted August 7, 2011 It's appearing that your 'problem' at Meadowhall had less to do with your choice of dress, or even the supposed behaviour of the security man..but far more your feelings towards Muslims. You brought muslims into the other thread, I could not care less who individuals pray to. This thread is about being offended. As for the poppy burners they were dealt with to my satisfaction.

It is funny and its not offensive at all. Plus its a subject ripe for ridicule. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
