ronthenekred Posted January 24, 2014 Share Posted January 24, 2014 What is Golden Rule? Also, you have three sentences there. The second is directly contradicted by the third. Sounds a bit like some sort of Chinese philosophy. I keep thinking of David Carradine in Kung Fu. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jessica23 Posted January 24, 2014 Share Posted January 24, 2014 Did anyone else have trouble following my post? I thought it was pretty clear that being okay with causing offence to people you've never met because you've never met them and they're not your mother was nonsense. Perhaps I should have just said stupid? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You defend the right to free speech on your terms, There is no absolute right to free speech. I said this on page one of the thread. I don't defend it on *my* terms. I call out idiocy when it gets spewed across the internet and I can be bothered to challenge it. Your arguments are idiotic. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mjw47 Posted January 24, 2014 Share Posted January 24, 2014 Read post #60. Read it. Point being you come across as someone who wishes to be able to insult anyone if you wish to, yes? My point is that you simply don't have the balls to actually follow that through. You would only be prepared to insult someone who would not be a threat to you. For instance, if you met a 6'5" eighteen stone Millwall fan with a broken nose and a tattoo on each set of knuckles saying 'love' & 'hate' with one across his chest saying 'Everyone hates us we don't care' you wouldn't walk up to him & say 'na then you ugly cockney git, your team is crap and your a twohat' would you? That's the test you see. If you want to be able to say what you want to anyone you meet then fair enough, go for it. But you aren't up to that are you? So why not do what most of us do and treat people kindly, until such time as they insult you? At which point say what you want. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CPC464 Posted January 24, 2014 Share Posted January 24, 2014 No, that isn't what I said. What I said is that borders are crossed more easily than people realise. Let me give you an example, my brother made a joke involving mentally handicapped people with me and my wife at the table. Not a good idea as my wife's daughter is mentally handicapped, it nearly wrecked the relation between me and my brother. Maybe the phrase 'mentally handicapped' didn't help.....
