Little Thumper 528 Posted January 5, 2017 Is this forum full of bigot racists as well as idiots? And the answer is.............................? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
nw42 2,053 Posted January 5, 2017 (edited) Absolutely nothing - someone has got their PC Brigade hat on. It's not really about being PC though is it, it's more about common decency, you should be ashamed of yourself for placing your twisted views in a thread about Speedway. Surely 'General Discussions' is a more suitable platform for you to spout your bile. I've felt sorry for you in the past when you've been given a bit of grief on here but obviously I never saw the full picture, you deserve all the sh-t that comes your way.

ch958 2,398 Posted January 5, 2017 I'm not sure about what's twisted about worrying about the spread of Islam in a Christian country. Its this attitude which has led to the popularity of rather extreme political parties and movements - all because the main parties have not addressed concerns people reasonably hold and, if i may say so, the hysterical reaction to any view contrary to their own. Anyway - Odsal's great and wouldn't be here without it - my Ma and Pa met there! 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I have read back through the thread and have struggled to find anything which might be considered offensive, so perhaps you might do me the kindness of highlighting the comments in this thread that have offended you. Whilst not for one minute suggesting that nw42 falls into this category, there are people who seem to go out of their way to be offended by something or other, even when there is no offence intended or detectable.

When people get offended for no apparent reason, it always reminds me of Monty Python's Argument Clinic sketch:- https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kQFKtI6gn9Y 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
moxey63 1,785 Posted January 5, 2017 There was a time, some while back, I got offended when people laughed at me because I followed speedway. Now, I no longer follow speedway... and they still laugh at me. Least I had an excuse before..... 4 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Well to help you out, TWK said... "It's already started - sadly there are those who can't see it though. We have a huge new Mosque opening soon here in Sunderland about half a mile from where I live. There is already another Mosque in Sunderland - I wonder where the next one will be? People need to wake up and smell the coffee before it is too late." Whatever all that's supposed to mean... BTW, the addition of this mosque in Sunderland will make a grand total of two in that city. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Thanks for that but I can read. So my question still stands. Show me the twisted views and bile because, for the life of me, I cannot see either in what has been written on this thread. Is it me or is there something to do with mountains and mole hills going on here? 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Humphrey Appleby 13,983 Posted January 5, 2017 Please read the relevant Post again. To make it simple - I highlighted it for you. Is there just the one church in Sunderland? Perhaps the existing mosque is full, or the new mosque is a different denomination, or maybe they just want to build another mosque for the hell of it? Why do you care?

No there are loads of Christian Churches in Sunderland - I suspect you already know this. Last I heard this was a Christian Country. How many Christian Churches are there in Islamic Countries and what is happening to some of their Congregations. THAT is why it matters. You need to wake up. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
