fun fun fun.

Shame. That little lad.. at first I thought, "Sonovabitch! What the Hell is going on in this freaking world?! Crazy little mofos.."
Yet I felt almost sorry for him.
I blame it on the non-existent parent(s) this time. "All you need is love."

Oh dear.

I just thought back to a brief history of america from that film and a sort of collective anxiety disorder would explain it. If you're constantly told that you're in danger or threatened then you would end up with an anxiety disorder after a while and you might be a little paranoid and trigger happy.

Umm..yes. It's actually an and/or cirumstance, because everyone is like clawing to get on disability. Hm.

What the hell is wrong with America. Just going back to Bowling For Columbine at some point he went to Canada with almost nothing different and they can behave themselves.
Are Americans just really f****d up or do they have some sort of collective mental disorder that comes with being American?

I'd have thought the whole 'Nazi forum' would have served as a pretty large reminder.

I didn't say that he wasn't a racist! :-P

Read it again.
People were just tagging him with the word "racism" where "racism" = BAAAAD.
It was like they didn't even remember why racism was "bad" in the first place.


I mean, think about what he said.
He thought people should stay pure blood.
That in itself is stupid but harmless.

I don't exactly know where I'm going with this, but there's this whole "political correctness" thingy of not being "racist", (which is why the BNP try and claim not to be so, even though it's what their principles are founded on) and it means that politically minded militants can go off on one on "harmless" racism...

Anyone seeing what I'm getting at?

But he was posting on a 'Nazi forum' right?

Kind of goes hand in hand with racism wouldn't you say? :D

You're missing the point.
Instead of just dismissing him as a racist (which he WAS being) if they'd talked over it, let him have his point of view and given him theirs, it would've given everyone something to think about.
Calling him a racist did nothing.
Just meant that he knew people hadn't really listened to what he was saying, just picked out the "discriminatory" parts and had a go at him for it.
The better way would've been to discuss it and sort of see where he was coming from, see if he knew where he was coming from, see if he'd realise he was being racist.

Instead of just giving him the political tag.

See where I'm coming from?

I agree, he rationalised and justified what he thought and beleived in his own, obviously unbalanced, mind. Gives a kind of insight into the motives of 'psychos'

It's the rationalising side of evil though.

Yes, most people go 'racist racist racist'

But it is. It comes down to the same thing with a rational discussion. It's irrational and racist.
