Why use that avatar?

Re: aleks avatar..(swastika)
 

Well, that was certainly a good day's trolling for you, wasn't it, Aleks?

Your last attempt to gratuitously offend people by referring to the two little lads who were killed on the M56 as "morons" didn't quite come off, as not many took the bait. But this one turned out to be a real humdinger.

All that attention focussed on you for nearly 24 hours. I bet it felt good, didn't it? Well done on pipping Blazey at the post for Accyweb Juvenile Attention Seeker of the Month. You truly deserve it!

Re: aleks avatar..(swastika)
 

Again there you go dignity, and just what is dignity blazey define the word, and then seek to justify my dignity at your peril! You are the genuine article a scatterbrained 5%er, ' the only thing I have left is my DIGNITY,you certainly have none.

I know what you are saying Dave, but compared to some of the numpties we have on Accyweb these days, he was quite normal ( and that is saying a hell of a lot ) :rolleyes::D

Whoops, good job we live in noughties and not the 1930s or 40s isn’t it, or is that what you call freedom of speech. Adolf had the view that you could say anything you like, if you lived long enough he’d even let you express an opinion, just like people where doing here, as where you.

Offended, not in the least. the comments you appear to have made about the motorway incident does.

Some people have a warped sense of humour and enjoy 'wind ups'
I think that Aleks is just indulging himself and enjoying you all getting angry with him - his idea of fun is stirring?

Re: aleks avatar..(swastika)
 

At worst I would say that the avatar is insensitive especially as we are coming up to Remembrance Day.

Otherwise seeing as it is the mirror image of the symbol adopted by the Nazis and was generally accepted to mean good, let it be. It might have had more impact if a three years old hadn’t drawn it though.

Incidentally you can see the SS flashes all over the place where there is dangerous electricity close to hand. Or at least one of them.

My dad used them as personal tool marking and so did I, but to him and me it was a figure 7 with another figure 7 upside down on top.

I meant content :)

Didn't mean it in a patronising way at all, no.

Re: aleks avatar..(swastika)
 

I read something recently that said that a huge majority of the country could want to change the law in some way, i.e to stop people using nazi symbolism as the clearest example, but if it was implemented then would that really mean we are living in a democracy, simple because thats what the majority want?

Aleks should have the right to have the swastika as his avatar, because as more than one person has already pointed out, its not even a Nazi swastika, so nobody should still be complaining about it when its a religious symbol and not one of race hate or condoning what the germans did.

And we live in UK, where people are from all over the place and believe in allsorts of things, that can be seen as wrong or right, and as much as people dont like it, some people do actually condone what the nazis did, just as some people once condoned rape in marriage, some of you might have condoned drugs when u where younger, some might not condone some religions and their traditions, some religious people might not condone homosexuality and abortion and so on, but I was always taught that even if you dont agree with someones beliefs, you shouldnt impose you own on them and if someone wants to have a symbol in their avatar then why should he being slated for that?

Some people show great patriotism on this forum and talk about how worse off we would be if we were under germanys ruling or whoever, yet not many people seem to stand true to the constitution we have in this country that we have fought for.

Think he clearly means content.
