Why Are We So Angry?

 

According to the Southern Poverty Law Center which monitors extremist activity, 2015 marked a rise in the levels of hate speech and political violence in the US.

Hardly surprising considering the straw haired mouth piece getting them riled up. Membership in the KKK and black separatist groups rose by 14%.

Other anti-gay, anti-immigrant, skinheads, Neo-Nazis, white supremacists and anti-Muslim groups also saw a rise.

The FBI report a 6.8% in over all hate crimes with 67% of them being against Muslims in 2015. 

After the EU referendum in the UK the Metropolitan police recorded a 16% increase in hate crimes and even months after Brexit the levels have still not gone done to pre-referendum levels. 

 In support of a Polish man murdered in August.

Embassies in the UK have reported more attacks on Poles than any nationality. Polish people being those ones that work harder than most locals and helped us fight the Nazis in WWII ... you remember them.



In the first 6 months of 2015 there was a huge rise in hate crimes against Muslims in France. Police and soldiers now guard 1,000 of France’s 2,500 mosques.

You think it's just because of the Charlie attack or the Paris attack that killed 130? Well Anti-Semitic attacks rose by 84% compared to those of 2014.    


Germany has had a rise in racist hate attacks higher in 2016 than since WWII. It has not been able to control the crime which is why the Neo-Nazi group National Socialist Underground were able to kill nine immigrants and a policewoman and go unnoticed for a decade. There were 6 anti-refugee protests a week in Germany in 2015.
Germany took in more than a million refugees in 2015 may be if the other nations took their fare share we'd be able to vet people better. If you don't like refugees then stop fucken well bombing their homes .... simples.  
 I heard the idiot reasoning that it wasn't the bombing by the coalition causing the refugee crisis but that there was always a refugee problem from evil regimes and ISIS .... FUCK I HATE ALL THE FUCKEN EXCUSE MAKING.  There hasn't been this many refugees world wide since WWII, they didn't just suddenly happen through civil wars and persecution.

White people making excuses for bigotry and hey it's you that's race baiting, I was just standing here with my Confederate flag.

Yeah, yer a fucken racist, quit pretending otherwise. Like blokes that pluck their eyebrows and workout to extremes and deny they are gay cos they are married an shit.... issues. No wait, Old Knudsen has the issues cos he points obvious things out.

He's just a pussy Liberal .... that's served during war, that loves firearms, that believes in the death penalty for pedos and rapists ... wait what? That doesn't sound very pussy liberal. Ach away an dress up in combats and fire yer AR-15 at a wee safe bit of paper like a real man cos you love yer cuntry so much .... except when it counts. 


The one good thing about terrorist attacks is the fall in white birth rates. People put off having children which kinda plays into the whole white supremacist mindset. White people will be a minority and pretty soon, are they so afraid of immigrants in case they get treated the way they've treated minorities?

Why all the hate? Gays aren't attacking anyone, Blacks, Poles and even Jews aren't shooting up the streets. The Muslims that get attacked are everyday people who just happen to be brown or speak another language or have a different religion than the attackers, they aren't terrorists. 


Here is the reason for all of this. It is also the reason I have this blog ... The Butterfly Effect ... no not that movie with Asshole Kuucher. I mean if you put out words and intent they will ripple through consciousness and will change the werld.

For instance in Northern Ireland. Old Knudsen wrote into papers and mentioned online how Loyalists (those brave patriots that have never served but like to dress up tough) had the Union flag upside down a lot.

Old Knudsen had even told an DUP MLA (like a congressman) how the flag is supposed to be flown and his face looked astounded as if he had never thought about it. This was before the flag protests of Dec of that year.

My earliest post was from 4th Dec 2012 but since July of that year I had been talking about upside down flags.  

Others ran with this as it was a class way to slag off people that claimed to be British and loved the flag etc. Now there are barely any upside down flags on lamp posts .... I still see them on houses but people here are just thick. A free education and you certainly get what you pay for. 
 
When America sneezes the rest of the world gets a cold ... Since 2001 the rhetoric in the media has been angry and quick to point fingers and accuse. You'd think that the US has been the only place to have ever been attacked the way they go on about it. 3000 dead in one day is terrible but so is 300, 30 or 3.


In an election that seemed stolen, Bush got elected. A tough talking pretend cowboy who let the biggest terrorist attack happen on his watch. He went from low popularity to well enough liked to get a second term.
He talked about freedom and fighting them there so we didn't have to fight them here ... bullshit in other words. Like when satellite and cable TV came out and told people that buying their service meant no more commercials.

He claimed that Saddam who had not attacked anyone had killed 50,000 Iraqis and had weapons of mass destruction and so had to be stopped from whatever he wasn't doing and right now.

I recently talked to someone that gave Bush the benefit of the doubt about the WMD's and that it really was faulty intelligence .... white people making excuses for white people huh.

The Middle East got torn up by Bush, by the Arab spring uprisings by Obama and the 62 coalition nations which include France, Germany and the UK.

All that violence and death, all that talking head media scare mongering, all the political scare mongering, all that ISIS beheading crap, all the terrorist attacks and domestic terrorist attacks and all the side effects such as refugees and falling economies when people vote with their fear.

I really disliked it when Hillary looked gleeful and said we came we saw and he died when Gaddafi was killed. He may have been a bad guy and quite often our ally but to gloat over a bayonet getting shoved up his hole before they killed him isn't cool. Why do Americans think they are allowed to kill anyone? 

It all gotta go somewhere, my blog can only do so much. We hear of every single atrocity and sometimes for weeks. We hear about the atrocity that is Trump and guess what? It isn't going to end soon, well done America.

The US is angry and so is everyone else. Fear is contagious and only when you step back and see that there aren't terrorists ready to jump out and behead you around every corner then you will see how the real threat actually comes from your own kind, be that white, black, Hispanic, male, American, British whatever you consider your kind to be.

I think we should see our own kind as human and realise that there are good and bad ones and that the best way to defeat an enemy is to make them your friend .... now quit making excuses for cunts and get to work.

The Confederate Flag Is Not Racist

Don't judge him, his other shirt says turtle power.  

"I am disgusted at how the Neggers and the Jews are portraying the Southern Cross, it is not and has never been a racist flag. The Jews try to demonize the Nazi Swastika but the Swastika is an ancient religious symbol that means in Sanskrit 'all is well.'"  Says Ron White the owner of Whites Only bar and grill in South Carolina.

He is upset at how those with 'left wing privilege' have been attacking his culture and heritage .... much like the poor down trodden Orangemen of Northern Ireland who only want their human rights protected, especially the right to do whatever they want.

South Carolina, Mississippi and Georgia gave their support for slavery as a reason for secession from the Union and so the confederate flags came into existence because of those beliefs. That doesn't make it wrong, the Nazi flag came into existence because the Nazis thought they were a superior people and that Jews, gheys and inferior races should be slaves or die, does that make them wrong? .... That logic hurts my head damn I wish I had the smarts.


The US civil war went on from 1861 - 1865 and its first flag represented South Carolina, Mississippi, Florida, Alabama, Georgia, Louisiana and Texas. Those break away states that respected black people's right to be owned like cattle and to work for free.... Now those rights have been taken away.


The second in 1863 looked like a white flag of surrender at a distance which gave rise to the Confederate battle cry of "No Surrender!"


The third flag known as the "Blood-Stained Banner" went up in 1865 ... then the south surrendered.

Gen. Robert E. Lee's Army of Northern Virginia used the current flag but Lee distanced himself from all those arsehole flags as he might have called them, there were no flags at all flown at his funeral.

"A flag devised from oppression and defeat is not fit to wipe shit with." ~ General Robert E Lee 1865

From the middle of the 20th century the confederate flag grew in popularity, the deep south still had segregation and the KKK in every town. When in 1948 Strom Thurmond ran for president, on their platform was "We stand for the segregation of the races" if you remember correctly Thurmond shagged the help and had a black daughter which he kept a secret until he was dead and she was aged 78.

After black kids were allowed to attend white schools the confederate flag went up even more ... not for racist purposes but for um culture, yeah that's right.

In 1961 the Confederate battle flag was erected over the State House in South Carolina and then moved near a monuments for fallen soldiers giving it heritage protection and an over whelming vote needed to have it removed .... democracy in action.

After the Dylann Roof shootings which were found to be heritage related rather than racial the South Carolina Governor Robert Bentley ... a Republican had 4 Confederate flags taken down and Nikki Haley, also a Republican called for flag to be removed from the State capitol.  It's bad when the Republicans admit to being wrong. 


Ron White looks me up and down then questions my parentage and sexual preferences but Old Knudsen is there to talk flegs, a subject that Every Ulster man is familiar with.

"If we was racist would we have let black people die at the Alamo?" 

The Alamo is a prized cultural tourist attraction in Texas made famous by a John Wayne movie, only the Duke could turn a crushing defeat into a victory. Colonel James Bowie (during his Ziggy years) had a black woman who died there and a slave belonging to Lieutenant Colonel William Barrett Travis is thought to have been the only male to survive the attack in 1836.

While looking at me and using his lazy eye to watch everywhere else Ron noticed a couple of trouble makers enter the bar and grill that he had to ask to leave. It may be construed as being racist because they just happened to be black so I'm seeing his point here. You can't even beat up gheys or scrawl immigrants out on a house without someone calling hate crime.  

He went onto say.

"We value diversity in our southern states as long as they know their place and let us express our culture and heritage. I've even heard some Liberals and uppity Negroes saying that burning crosses on lawns is racist but it's just us expressing our religious freedoms, what are they Muslim or something?"
 
Mr White's logic is sound and based on olde time values like segregation and slavery which are not racist but rather traditional. Who are we to judge another culture? next you'll be saying that torturing dogs before eating them like the Chinese do is wrong but it's not, it's culture!

 Away from the drug dealing, terrorist side of the UVF is the history appreciating side. 



The people of Northern Ireland don't know their own history but they know that they like flegs if they piss somebody off. 

Northern Ireland's greatest export .... shit stirrers and bullies. 

I've heard all the excuses for flying alleged cultural flags and tradition is the best excuse ever. Slavery (itself a tradition) gave the US the tradition of the second amendment, Roots and Django Unchained so think twice before you go bagging on slavery and other cracker traditions.

Stormont Flag Outrage

Something odd seen flying over Stormont.

The corruption at FIFA, ISIS in Iraq and the the ceasefire in the Ukraine has been overshadowed by a more important story that everyone is talking about. The Union flag at the Stormont government building on the edge of Belfast was replaced by an Irish tricolour. 

For 15 minutes unionists ranted and raved and declared the end of times, Peter Robinson even had a few more heart attacks and Sammy Wilson's face went from fat farmer boy red to head explode rage red. 

Now the team of 23 police detectives were told have discovered through detective werk an such that a sinister and shadowy Irish separatist movement organisation called The 1916 Societies group were responsible for this heinous crime against humanity. 

If they can do this then they can do anything .... no I've never heard of them either, what the fuck happened at 7:16 pm that they name their group after it, did Jesus die then or something? .... oh it was that Easter egg rising thing of 1916, sorry, I was too busy fighting the Hun in Flanders then.   


It all makes sense, I bet it's those cunts who keep putting the tricolour on top of Protestant bonfires for the 11th July purge celebration. 
For years the innocent Loyalists who as we all know didn't do nothing got blamed for that, I bet they even threw bricks through their own windows and dressed as Loyalists (red white and blue track suits) to intimidate immigrants out of their homes as well.  

So for a united Ireland the IRA bombed and killed civilians, Protestant and Catholic alike and the 1916 group are pulling flag pranks to achieve a united Ireland .... and I thought the Loyalists were thick.

The English Don't Understand Patriotism

Beryl McNichol a 71 bitter balls has said "it was as if she were living in a communist country" after the Mansfield (England) District Council told her to take doon her proud patriotic flags from her 18ft flagpole she erected on her allotment plot.

An allotment plot is a little communist too, local people who don't have a garden are allocated a plot to grow veggies or flowers on .... no flag poles, rocket launch pads, no meth labs, no cannybis just good old legal marigolds and turnips etc. 


To keep the wogs and other foreigners in their place she also flew a Ukip flag coming up to the elections. Despite being told to remove the flags as they were not a part of the allotment agreement sneaky Beryl flew a 'Lest We Forget' flag on VE day .... she's old, some people tie knots to remember and others fly flags. It's a little like praying in public to one upmanship all the half arsed cunts who aren't as holy or as patriotic as you. Shit that isn't worth doing unless the world sees you doing it.

Like:

I voted, I went to the gym, I helped lil Jill with her homewerk, I went to somewhere swanky, I grew a turnip. 

Ach white people are so insecure, with the public displays, thank fuck for blogs, Twitter and Facebook.  

Beryl proudly served her cuntry, what have you done ? ... well when I say served she was a school dinner lady for 3 years but that still counts, she's seen shit.

She says the flags give you a moment of reflection and how with the Nepalese earthquakes she'd fly it at half mast as that beats actually donating to a charity there. Old Knudsen has said several prayers for the people of Tibet, no don't thank me, it was the least I could do.

No offense Nepal but you don't rate a half mast flag, maybe if Sean Connery died or something, he is as foreign as the Ukipers can stand.

Stoopid English, they know fuck all about how to be proper British.


What you do is not worry about no ghey flag pole, you get yon fleg up on a lamp post or some post with phone lines or power cables then you let it rot because being patriotic isn't about respect, it's about showing others yer better than them and this is yer cuntry.

Dogs pee on things real British patriots put flegs on things an burn shit. 


In Northern Ireland we love our flegs and know all about British culture. Beryl did get the soldier thing right though, we British only like dead soldiers to mourn over, living ones ... not so much as they might not agree with us.


Nothing stirs yer patriotism more than a UVF parade. In the early 20th century the original UVF (bigots not terrorists) were so loyal to the crown that they were going to make loads of dead British soldiers to mourn over if they didn't get their way. The UVF were then sent to fight in WWI that just happened by coincidence to be a slaughter known as the Somme .... I'm sure the English generals didn't mean to get rid of all the Ulster trouble makers who were not very good soldiers by all accounts.

Since then the UVF stick to wearing masks and killing civilians as the military is way too dangerous. Every time someone on the telly suggests bringing back national service in the military a Loyalist shits themselves. 
The tradition of wearing of the fleg in yer under cackers is something stoopid Sassenachs like Beryl wouldn't understand. The underwear isn't padded, they keep a wee bottle of ecstasy pills to sell on route ... it's tradition! 

We cannae speak English very well and the English hate us more than they hate the Welsh and the Scots but we're better at being British than they'll ever be. NO SURRENDER!!!! .... except when it's cold out or when I have a bad back.

Simply The Best Value In Drugs


 



 A historical UVF flag.

It's marching season again in Northern Ireland which means yet more flags attached to lamp posts.

These flags are not to celebrate anything but are really just criminal gangs marking their territory with their gang colours. The police would do something about it but they don't want to hurt anyone's feelings or cause any trouble ... they're nice in that respect. 
Most people's idea of tolerance here is UVF and UDA (rival gangs) flags on the same street, aye my people are right cunts and no mistake, I blame the immigrants.  


The UDA which is a paramilitary criminal gang added the words 'simply the best' to their flags and love to pogo dance to the Tina Turner tune, much to the disgust of the singer and her management. When asked to stop using it the UDA merely laughed at them as you'd expect. "Take us to court? you mustn't like yer knees a lot." 

I understand why the UVF would use The three stooges on their flag as everybody laughs at them but 'Simply the best?' it sounds like a commercial for something. 

You've tried the rest of the drug dealing thick necked thugs now try the best!


Simply the best at Dune stores, better value everyday. 

When I see those flags and read the words, I don't think about the UDA, I get Tina Turner's song in my head, still it could have been worse, it could have been the Macarena or Agadoo .... fucks sake now I've got that in me head, Ag-a-doo-doo-doo, push pineapple, shake the tree , Aga-doo-doo-doo, push pineapple, grind coffee, To the left, to the right, jump up and down and to the knees ..... just leave me, go on without me, just tell yer wife I loved her, for 5 minutes then I kicked her out of the car... Ka-Chow!  Come and dance every night, sing with a hula melody.

Giro d'Italia


You yap and you beg for a televised cycle race to go through yer areas as the councils want to fix up and paint the route so it doesn't look so bad and run doon but then you throw a hissy fit when someone suggests removing any flags or murals.

They support terrorism and criminals, who the fuck wants to see those ..... future investors?

New Flag Of Ulster

Here is my submission for a new flag for Northern Ireland . US diplomat Richard Haass has suggested we dream up a new flag that everyone could agree upon.

The white is for unity or surrendering to peace and the red hand of Ulster which is both a Loyalist and an ancient Celtic symbol has turned into the Flipping the bird hand of Ulster as the people of Northern Ireland like to offend and take offense with everything.

Just think how they would be offended every time they look at the flag .... they'd love it.  Then each side would fly it thinking they are flipping off the other side.

Twaddell Hoors Need Police Brutality Without Lube

£55,000 a night to police the so-called civil rights camp at Twaddell so their hoors can wrap up in my flag and spread their legs on police landrovers.  Ugly looking people with ugly hearts, why can't the police just open fire? they aren't really human ya know. 

You can't whine about yer culture and heritage and demand that others respect it when yer pissing all over the culture and heritage of others .... the Nazis did that sort of shite. Unless you served in the armed forces and vote, don't fucking talk to me about flags and upholding rights.... oh and don't hi-jack the sacrifice of soldiers who died for their cuntry so you could be a fat, drunken, lazy fucker.    




In normal cuntries with police brutality against law breakers this would not be happening. Fuck the schools, fuck the healthcare system and economy, we'll waste all the tax payer money and try to bankrupt the police ...... sounds like that would benefit the agenda of criminals like the UVF to me.

The Loyalist underclass want the Union flag to fly all the time and where ever they want it and they want to be able to march and play their offensive tunes every where .... Too much time on their hands maybe? Lets make them work for their welfare benefits, that is what the government is saying. 

There are no proper jobs with proper wages but it will keep them off the streets. 


Old Knudsen will be mainly enjoying his culture today.

Geldof Takes My Flag Into Space

Secret flegger Bob Geldof wears the flag proudly ..... for a Fenian cock sucker.

Bob Geldof has completed his first training flight simulation of the XCOR Lynx spacecraft. The mission is to land on asteroid TCU-14 later in the year and mine the fuck out of it.

The former pop star is said to be very excited about going up into space and even became a British citizen, relinquishing his Irish citizenship in order to qualify for the position.

"It's such a great opportunity to wear a flight suit and aviator glasses" said the multi millionaire as he posed for photographs.  

Bono turned up with a starving African, that man is such a downer.

If A Flag Is Erected And Nobody Sees It Then Does It Really Exist?



Thanks to Northern Ireland's Finance minister Sammy Wilson, Strabane courthouse in Co Tyrone can proudly fly a Union flag.
It maybe a time of recession but as agreed in the Good Friday Agreement of 1998 this government office needs a flag.
Due to cutbacks the courthouse is only in use once a week for family law cases.
Oh so what then? Well you get a staff member from miles away in Omagh to come doon and put the flag up over an empty building.
The courthouse isn't even in use on 13 of the 15 Stormont-designated flag-flying days but by Jove there will be a fucking flag flying.

Scoring tit for tat points as usual, the Stormont executive really needs to grow up. Wasting money hiring ex terrorists who kept their mouth's shut as special advisers to putting flags up where no one wants them, no wonder this cuntry is so backwards.

Jamie Bryson, My Life Behind Bars

Jamie Bryson, one of the more vocal flag protesters tells Old Knudsen about his life behind bars.... Well actually only 5 weeks.  I met up with Bryson in the attic of a hoose in Bangor after he had made sure that I wasn't followed.

The PSNI have eyes everywhere it seems said Bryson more furtively than usual Willie told me how they put tracking and recording devices into the prison food just before you get released so I can't be too careful.

Is that no a computer sitting there? I thought you weren't allowed on the Interwebs. 


I am allowed online, I just can't speak about flags and the political issues relating to them, in fact they removed the F, L, A and G from my keyboard, I can't even log onto Fagsandtwinks.com.

Where you afraid when you were about to go into prison?



Not afraid, nothing scares the beast from the east. I was nervous about all the ass pounding but these guys in there are pros at being prison gay.

 
Did you make any friends?

I made friends with the hero of Milltown cemetery Michael Stone, hes a very intelligent man and gave me lots of advice.  


The hair is looking very nice by the way, the mullet is a timeless classic.

Thank you Soren, thats very kind of you. 

Was Michael Stone not the guy who shot at and threw grenades at unarmed people attending an IRA funeral? 

Yes thats him except they could have been armed. 

He had a 9mm Browning and a 357 magnum also grenades and he managed to only kill 3 unarmed people, attacking funerals is hardly the actions of a hero.

Don't forget about him injuring 60 of the IRA terrorists there. Did I tell you about my long hard hunger strike? 
 
The one that lasted half a day?

All the previous night too.

Aye but you were sleeping then.

You're twisting the facts.

What are yer plans now? 

Well I'll write a book of course, maybe it will be turned into a movie with Ryan Gosling playing me, we are in talks at the moment and whenever I have a statement to make I'll get a tattoo.  


Piece by peace? to me well um that doesn't make sense can you explain it?

Well it's a piece of pea .... no not really it made sense after a swallie of Buckfast.

The words are all over the place and resisted, is that what yer going for? It looks more like piesisted which is what you did to the pies after yer hunger strike.

Like I said it was the Buckfast. I think the gist of the message is clear.

Bears have no shame? Yogi does brag about stealing that is true.

This interview is over, go and make fun of someone else I have to write a letter to Michael.  

Aye ask him if his inability to shoot and fight has been a hindrance to his terrorist career or does he just like being in prison?  


Old Knudsen left with more questions than answers like 'why does my hole itch so much,' I generously slapped on the Anusol today. I'll leave the hard hitting questions to the others. I wish Jamie and his spidey polo shirts well, he almost made it but he'll never be a Willie Frazer.
 

He didn't say that but I wouldn't be surprised if he did.

Facilitate Yer Ma

To settle any confusion. Old Knudsen is a Unionist he is not a Loyalist. He believes Northern Ireland  needs to stay a part of the UK in order to thrive. A Loyalist is a moron who goes on about be loyal to the Queen but has never served in the military, doesn't vote and is a criminal type asshole.

Loyalists have been saying that flying the Union flag 17 days at Belfast city hall instead of 365 days makes them feel less British and is destroying their British culture ..... all lies because many of them have now made it about the Protestant culture. Fucking scumbegs.

These cunts made Old Knudsen resign as a grand master funk of the footloose Presbyterian church because he couldn't take the constant stupidity from this crowd.

They use soundbite words they have heard and haven't put thought into well their thoughts. Fucking puppets manipulated by all and they don't even know it.

A word they use is facilitate , "the police were there to facilitate the protest" . It's like a child who hears a grown up use a big word and they don't know what it means but they use it anyway. I believe they mean that the police escort and block them off with their presence .... the police do not bring flags and road blocks to make the protests easier.

I'm sorry to all my international readers if you don't understand what the fuck all of this is about.


Look, breasts, you understand that.

Don't Fuck With Me Bush, I Eat Cunts Like You For Breakfast.

Me with my Keeling cap.


I don't like to brag as you all know. I did however serve with the Yanks while I was in special farces. I can't tell you too much about it or I'd have to kill you. I already have a list of Bloggers that I'm gonna kill for various reasons. I won't give names but if there are any commie anti-monarchists out there beware.
I have indeed sculptured the world in my own humble way, and Yanks make up yer fucking minds, first you want General Noriega, and then you don't. I don't get paid extra for this you know it comes out of my pocket. That Bush man is forever e-mailing trying to get me to kill heads of state that bug him, like the other day he said that Mahmoud Ahmaddinejad called me a kiddie diddler and was going to have a conference about it, well I saw red. I got me cammo paint on my face and my killing cap on and while I was putting me piano wire up my sleeve it occurred to me that maybe Bush was lying, so I e-mailed a few of my middle east contacts and googled for a bit and no, just like that time when Bush told me that Kim Jong Ill said that my eyes were too close together and that I must be a Catholic, that fucker is so lucky to be alive right now, that Castro cunt will be going after the hols as I know he did call me a sweaty ball licker and that's after I helped defend his island during the bay of pigs fiasco .
Have you ever put on cammo paint? clogs yer pores big time and it makes you sweat like a long tailed cat in a room full of rocking chairs .
Well to get back to the point I have learned a few things about the American flag, old Glory as they call it.
It has to be raised at dawn and lowered at sunset, it can only stay out at night if it has a light on it and must not be raised during bad weather.
When the American flag passes you , you Yanks must salute or stand to attention, those yanks salute all the time,hat on hat off. Citizens take off their hats and hold it over their hearts with their right hands, or if without a hat they just hold their hands over their heart.
We Brit soldiers only salute it we are wearing our army headdress otherwise we stand to attention, just a wee bit of info fer you.
Remember after 9/11 the Americans all went uber patriotic for 3 weeks and all the Pakies and the Sikhs got beat up because Yanks don't do international and don't know any better and flag sales increased? well tackiness and ignorance showed big time, we have the same problem in Britain, idiots wear the flag as clothes and say they are being patriotic, that twat Kid Rock cut a hole in a flag and wore it as a poncho on stage.

If you cast contempt over Old Glory , deface, defile, burn or trample it you'll get a fine of 1,000 dollars or imprisoned for a year, or both, yeah land of the free my arse, it conflicts with free speech somewhat but that whole country conflicts with itself.
Do not let the flag trail on the ground or in water, don't place an emblem on or above it, don't use it for decoration, use bunting, do not use it as a costume or athletic uniform . ok have you got all of that? there are ways to hang it long ways but I won't get into that.


Now I'm not going to make fun of 9/11 or Firefighters as the former is a terrible thing to happen and the later are brave/stupid enough to risk their lives for strangers and cats in trees and should be applauded. However, this image of the flag in a recreation of the Iwa Jima picture always makes me laugh, there is always some bloke supervising doing fuck all except to give handy unhelpful advice. The beer bellied guy on the left is that man," no pull that rope, no push it, put some effort into it ".

Us British types have the day/month/year when we give a date, yes it does make more sense than the American version but 11/9 doesn't sound that good.



I'm not American, no really but I don't see anything wrong with the way this flag is being flown, I would serve under this. Someone should tell her that horizontal stripes makes her twat look fat.

I was just thinking the other day while I was cleaning vomit off the bathroom walls. Remember when at the end of the TV viewing day, the national anthem would play we'd get images of the Union flag and the Queen in her carriage ? well that's a bygone time, TV doesn't end anymore, the young uns today won't remember TV ending ever, for them there is always TV on some channel, we only had 3 channels then now we've gone all American with 30 and above being the average number of channels, its a little disturbing, we didn't have 24 hour petrol stations, grocery stores or fast foods restaurants, and Sundays were like a deserted no man's land with nothing open.

What will be next? 24 hour daylight? giant flood lights in the sky acting as second suns, and sleep will be something yer grandparents did that you don't have any time for because you've got too much to do, I must play the latest video game while doing my shopping and talking on my brains free phone, the family want some quality time together, I'd better send them an e-card, why does life have to be so fast? what will the autobiographies be like then? maybe a collection of text messages about how service people aren't snapping to it when you enter their shop, because with all this technology hanging from yer nipples and stuck in yer ear and in yer head you must be a very important person.


I thought I was full of hate and self loathing but no, those people who cram every unimportant detail at twice the speed into their lives really really hate themselves, then when they get old they'll stop and say, "hey when did I get old?" and they will fear death that is approaching at an alarming rate because they never gave a second thought to anything but what they can get at high speed to fill some imagined void in their life. Faster, bigger, fully loaded and newer, that is what is valued now to make you a person of worth. Integrity and passion has been replaced by gadgets that will put an end to you ever having to lower yourself to do something for yerself, a super techno class of people who think they are better than the rest, A Brave New World.

Vomit makes me think.
