Loudmouth,

May I refer you to the first paragraph of Yabby's post above yours - I agree with that.

Will also add that my eleven year-old son was watching this story on the news just now (I usually control his news intake quite strictly depending on what I think he can take on board).

I explained to him the methods of the Taliban, but also that not all Muslims adhered to the Taliban's model. We both agreed that it was diabolical and our conversation finished with him saying to me - that it reminded him of the similar fate that befell Martin Luther King - a man silenced while attempting to challenge ingrained societal prejudice.

Quite a wise analysis for a youngster, I thought.

Poirot: Jayb, - I don't think it's necessary, or in good taste, to thump your chest at so-called "dissenters" using this girl's horrendous situation as a glove to slap in our face.

Are you saying that I should be Politically Correct? Ain't never gonna happen. Whatever it takes to make the blind see where truth lays. I notice that the Politically Correct complain bitterly confronted with reality. It contributed towards their Mental Illness & Political Correctness is a Mental Illness.

You mentioned the young girl with a bullet in her head but you didn't say anything the young man that had his head cut off. Who slowly drowned in his own blood. Is that sexist or, because it was a male, it didn't matter?

Jayb,

Sometimes you sound quite reasonable - and sometimes, as in the post above, you come across as deliberately puerile and incendiary.

Do you really believe that I don't give a stuff about the "men/boys" slaughtered in this way?

And my criticism of your "manly/walking talking primate" behaviour of beating your chest when you think you're victorious has nothing to do with political correctness - and everything to do with a bloke yodelling about how much kudos he thinks he possesses.

poirot: Jayb, - I don't think it's necessary, or in good taste, to thump your chest at so-called "dissenters"

Dissenters? dissenters? Up until now, those who didn't support this vile religion were the dissenters. Suddenly you are making out like you & your kind are the dissenters?. "BS!"

Poirot: nothing to do with political correctness - and everything to do with a bloke yodelling about how much kudos he thinks he possesses.

Please don't try & buck your own system. Political Correctness has everything to do with this & not a dam thing about kudos, dear lady.

Political Correctness was installed into today’s society to protect the faint hearted who can't handle reality. The proponents have condemned those people who aren't as crude barbarians. It's getting increasing worse since the 70's. Ba Ba rainbow sheep, persons & partners. Then there's Noddy, once banned because he was in bed with Big Ears, now it's in again because "Gay" is "good."

Martin Luther King’s assassination was 49 years ago. A hell-of-alot has changed in America since then.

What has changed in the Middle East? Nothing, in fact it's got worse. Try Mali, Al Qeada is rounding up all the unmarried mothers & going to kill them. Most of these mothers were raped by their Muslim brethren in the first place, that's why they have children.

Poirot: I explained to him the methods of the Taliban, but also that not all Muslims adhered to the Taliban's model.

Did you explain to him that that was only until the fundamentalist force their way into an area then they all become like that, or else. Did you tell him that the Muslims want to make Australia a Caliph Empire & that we would all be forced to convert, or else. I just bet you didn't. He's too young to understand. Do you realize that 10 year old boys in Syria have taken up arms & are killing people. Yes, 11 years old, in a coddled Western Society, is too young. But you aren’t.

I’m sorry if you are offended, but it’s not my problem if you can’t handle reality. Someone has to tell & show the truth & be buggered with Political Correctness. As I said before, Political Correctness is a Mental Illness.
