Re: Greece and Macedonia dispute over name
Here's the old thread I was referring to Broomstick, where I felt I kept a calm and cool demeanour through out (/sarcasm) as promised, and this is what I was referring to specifically about my stance then; Crown, you keep calling them F.Y.R.O.M., which stands for "Former Yugoslav Republic of M...

Re: Greece and Macedonia dispute over name
OK, I get it, I was confused as to which Macedonia you were from. I"m sorry if you were offended by my mis-identification, it certainly wasn't intentional. Of course it wasn't intentional, and I don't blame you at all. But it's what will happen if Greece acquiesces to the FYROM demand in using...

Re: Greece and Macedonia dispute over name
I don't know ... why are you asking me that question? Think a moment before you reply, I'm trying to use this as a teaching moment, not to be a cunt. I am puzzled by your tone, as well as your caution about thinking before replying (although I did, in fact, take some time prior to making this post)...

Re: Greece and Macedonia dispute over name
<snip> 1. Well you implied by being Macedonian you had some knowledge about the situation we outsiders don't when you replied to Broomstick. Hence why she asked you a question. 2. If you are referring to that specific question, as opposed to a question in general, could it be that when you use the ...

Re: Greece and Macedonia dispute over name
OK - give the Macedonian viewpoint on why the name of your country should be Macedonia as opposed to something else, and why it's so important to you (or, if not, why it's so important to so many of your countrymen). I don't know ... why are you asking me that question? Think a moment before you re...

Re: 2016 US ELECTION: Official Results Thread
Also there's a possibility that that attack wasn't about politics at all. Snopes has it that it was argument about a traffic violation not politics. Not that excuses the violence of course. There have been a couple of other incidents which are totally unconnected videos but still get posted as &quo...

Re: 2016 US ELECTION: Official Results Thread
I'm deeply skeptical of anything out of Wikileaks, but if its true that members of the DNC and the Clinton campaign deliberately promoted far Right candidates because they thought it would make the Republicans easier to beat, then they are both morally bankrupt and staggeringly incompetent. And no ...

Correct me if I'm wrong, but the Guardian is a British newspaper, yes? Yep, but has a US office and an Australian one. Well, it may be had a US office, they had to lay off 100 odd staff earlier in the year because apparently printing nothing but wall to wall 'my feelings' articles wasn't boosting s...

And which candidate made oblique reference to the possibility of "2nd Amendment solutions" if they lost again? President Elect Donald J Trump. And he also said that if Hillary was so anti-gun she should forgo her security detail. Some people thought that meant he was calling for her assas...

Maybe, but what they certainly did to was predict this violence from the right. In response to evidence to the contrary Simon posts a picture of name written on a wall and some angry kid yelling racists insults over an insult that he claims was said but isn't in the recording. An imagined insult ve...

No reason for choosing the Governor of Indiana when Trump's victory strategy was to breach the Democratic Blue Wall of which Indiana is smack bang in the middle of and had flipped in 2012?

Or Trump's stance on Gay Rights which has a pretty well documented history , while not perfect, gives them confidence that Trump got Pence to relax his position for the chance to be VP. At a guess.
