I can believe it, although I haven't seen the 'offensive' posts.

I have to say, it is easy for mods to delete posts with which they disagree, but it's a shame that the rest of us are not permitted to read the 'offensive' posts so that we can make our own minds up.

At least the thread appears not to be locked after all.

Well at least three people found the post disrespectful or inappropriate - all the more surprising from somebody who states he is ex-forces

 

[terrypin]

I don't recall posting anything offensive but had a message saying it was disrespectful and was deleted.

Rather confused.

A number of people disagree with you.

I found your comment inappropriate, as did others.

You would find a Nun kneeling in prayer inappropriate.

I reiterate, nothing I posted was inappropriate. JD will have a copy of the post ask him to let you have a copy.

 

[Newboy]

Presumably during the two minute silence you thought it appropriate to bellow your views out?

Have some respect and stop behaving like a mouthy yob.

I have no connection with JD - as my track record in disagreeing with him demonstrates.

 

[Newboy]

Well thanks for confirming that you are indeed a mouthy yob - I read your post hence my reference to your stating that you were ex-forces.

How f*cking dare you suggest defacing a war grave or war memorial - you are a disgrace to ex and serving forces

Somehow 'inappropriate' doesn't cover your posts

I never said I was ex-forces in the 11/11 thread. That was in the Remembrance Sunday thread.

So it's OK for you to suggest (unfounded) that I shouted during the 2 minute silence, but when I suggest (probably more accurately) that you would p-iss on a war memorial you spit your dummy out.

You squire are a disgrace to every single man, woman and child that died in both World Wars.

A couple of points.

1) Learn to read - I know full well where you stated that you were ex-forces (in this and your previous incarnations in this forum)
2) I asked if you shouted as an expression of my view that you lack respect
3) Defacing a war memorial or war grave is as far as I'm concerned a moral and criminal offence of the highest order. For you, as ex-forces, to even suggest doing that is beyond belief.
4) So you're discounting any other conflict other than WW I & II - how about your lack of respect for all the other service personnel and civilians particularly as you have previously claimed (in your previous incarnations) to have served in other theatres?

You are a disgrace & a yob and need to learn the meaning of respect

Answer the question, where did I actually show anything but respect for our armed forces. I did not suggest that you p-iss on a memorial, I suggested that I believe that is what you did.

I served in Northern Ireland only not in any other conflict. For me, NI was a pick-nick compared with what the lads and lasses went through in all other conflicts.

What did you do for your country other than kowtow to the RoP?

post edited & removed

I lost my temper and replied with personal information

I don't discuss personal history with loud-mouths.

Handyjack, I don't understand why you are attacking newboy for pointing out your post in the 11-11 thread was at best inappropriate and that some found it offensive. Whether it should have been removed is another matter.

 

[ajrtd]

Your taking the opportunity to voice your opinion of muslims in a thread remembering our war dead. You won't need telling that many of them were also muslim.
