"Daily Mail vs 'Manga'"

Yes, they're at it again. The Daily Mail have taken their crusade against all things they don't understand by condemning the decision to put Japanese Manga in schools.

The books are vetted by the School's councils, but the Mail once again shows their ignorance of everything by not undertanding the difference between comic books and Japanese Manga.

Only a fool would suggest that reading an adaption of Spirited Away (to give a well known example) would lead to 'harder' material which is often read by adults in Japan. It would be like suggesting children shouldn't read books, in case it gets them involved in horror or porn based reading material, or not watching Bambi on video, because it will eventually lead the kids to something by Ron Jeremy.

Daily Mail, well done, you've done it again...

Unfortunately I get stuck reading the Daily Mail. It's quite interesting how flawed they can be sometimes.
And the BNP will never really succeed anyway except amongst ignorant yobs, so I suppose the Daily Mail is almost a paper aimed at them!

Oh, so the BNP should be allowed to campaign freely then? They are the minority after all.

No, just worse.

That doesn't sound very promising, in anyway at all...

I think it goes in cycles, one week Immigrants are secretly destroying the country and civilisation as we know it, the next videogames are warping our kids minds, next some new disease that will kill us all and then finally a 'lucky dip' item which they will turn their ignorance to.

Got to love them really

We was analysing a Daily Star editorial in English today from about 11 years ago. Then the teacher asked who agreed with it. Nearly everyone put their hand up. Then he asked who disagreed with it. I put my hand up... Then he called me gay.

That's about as interesting as my day got... Carry on.

If it made sense, it wouldn't be anime.
