majority of political talk on the board is in response to something you post.
and thanks for the papajohns code.
Yes it is in response to me quite often, yet none of the responses do a thing other than say (paraphrasing) "there is no such thing as a left wing liberal", "no one on the left is ever out of line", "everything bammy does is absolutely perfect", etc.
Welcome for the code. Nothing is quite as good as free or reduced price food!

haven't read the article but based on the title i feel like you would want to support him becuase you are pro-nazi salutes but won't since he is greek.
Seeing as you are admittedly totally uninformed on the issue, I will discount your opinion to the value it actually carries.

Besides if I were 'pro-nazi' I would be all in favor of a gun ban since that is EXACTLY how they were able to do what they did. Also, what do you have against Greeks (other than their horrible food)?

nazis did NOT take away guns. in fact they encourages and expanded gun ownership.
"Unfortunately for those who would like to link Hitler and the National Socialists with gun control, the entire premise for such an effort is false. German firearms legislation under Hitler, far from banning private ownership, actually facilitated the keeping and bearing of arms by German citizens by eliminating or ameliorating restrictive laws which had been enacted by the government preceding his: a left-center government which had contained a number of Jews"
http://www.natvan.com/national-vanguard/assorted/gunhitler.htmlUnfortunately for LaPierre et al., the notion that Hitler confiscated everyone?s guns is mostly bogus. And the ancillary claim that Jews could have stopped the Holocaust with more guns doesn?t make any sense at all if you think about it for more than a minute.

The French and Polish armies had quite a few guns. A lot of good it did them.

Greek food is awesome. My favorite restaurant is Black Olive in Baltimore. Awesome greek seafood restaurant.
I'm not so much into olives and cheese. :)

So no one is willing to actually watch the video and make a reasoned and well thought out response? Oh well, here goes.
As silly as almost all kickball (oops soccer) celebrations are anyway, I would have never even thought that what he did was a 'nazi salute' and even with the article stating that the writer or governing bodies thinking it was, I can see maybe that it resembles it.
The problem I have is the whole 'thought police' mentality. Rarely is any law that is based upon the INTENT of the accused a valid law. There is no way to PROVE what someone's INTENT was.
Its akin to the whole 'hate crime' thing. The prevailing PC thought process is that just because a crime is committed upon a person of a protected class, it is by definition a 'hate crime'. So if a person were to mug someone that is a member of one of many protected classes, they get more charges because it is automatically a hate crime. Hell the dude may have simply been SOL and needed to feed his family. What we need to do is stop passing all these laws that specifically protect individuals or groups. Example e need to get rid of any law that says things like you cannot base hiring on race, gender, weight, eye color, etc and make one law that covers it all that simply says you cannot base hiring on anything that is not relevant to the job. I am absolutely 100% sure that the point I am making will go way over the head of many but it is completely valid.
SOOOOOOOO, I don't agree with the stupid ruling banning this guy, but has nothing at all to do with nazis or other foolishness.
