There's a lot of people on Twitter calling him a Nazi, mostly Snowflake Social Justice Warriors, who wouldn't know a Nazi if they came goosestepping up to them wearing SS Deathsheads and marched them off to a concentration/extermination camp, whilst they protested "I want to speak to your manager."

Re: Prince Philip

not being a royalist and never have been. anyone who attempts to make something out of any ones death needs to hang their head in shame. as a republican its not the worst day of my life but philip was someones husband, father, grandfather etc etc and should be given respect. the snowflake lefties can again do one and get out of my life. i do not want to either hear or see these pondlife who take something from another human that dies. get a wash, get a life and get out of mine.

Re: Prince Philip

Never been much of a royalist but you show some respect to grieving families whoever they may be.
The one thing that does irk is when you see the likes of Sturgeon heaping praise on a man that you know she probably desperately despised. A simple sorry to hear of his death would suffice but with 52% of Scots being pro-Royal she has to role out a string of hollow platitudes to help bolster her political aspirations.

Can't quite agree with that Cashy mate, there are some really bad people out there & I for one would quite happily smile & say glad it happened, especially those deserving of it, but I understand your point though.

problem is that these scum will be forgotton about when they die so people will never get their day to respond. they know this when they post or say something for their 5 minutes of infamy.

Re: Prince Philip

The people criticising Prince Philip must have self esteem issues.
They must feel that the way of bigging themselves up, is to bad mouth a man who is not here to defend himself....very immature.
It is the adult version of school yard name calling.
Maybe there is an element of social jealousy or envy.
I was taught that you did not speak ill of the dead, because although they could no longer be hurt by barbs, their family could....I was taught that if I could not say something good, then silence was the best option.
The thing about silence is that it can never be held against you or misquoted.

silence is certainly the best option. far too many people once they die become saints which is equally as bad as some witch hunt against them. a report of someones death should just be that and nothing more especially where celebraties are concerned. one mans meat in another mans jimmy savile.
