*have? (sorry, I am always trying to improve my english, that's why I ask ;) )

tbh: A literacy test in a Donald Trump thread? You're kidding me :D
Dirk, your command of English is far superior to John Todd's and many other English people.. Mind, the same could be said of a bowler hat with regards to John.

and a loyalty test.

If you can't shoot your jism over a photo of Farage in 30 seconds you're not allowed to join, something like that? Your Y fronts would be all sticky before you'd have even got it out.

How can that be right he keeps using that silent R in his name?

Aber G is exactly the type of person I'd want on my side in a war. You on the other hand I can just imagine being a cowardly turncoat the moment things got ropey.

Red: I don't know if this qualifies as a compliment :D

Johnny still pining for me? I've told him before, this isn't necessary. He just needs to stop being so shy and ask for my number.
You got mobile phones in Wales now?

Whatever your opionion is of Donald Trump, be it positive or negative. Let's not forget. It's no different to anywhere else where democracy thrives. What he promised he'd do and what is popular with the public to get him to where he has got to. Doesn't translate into what he will actually achieve when he becomes President. We all vote for what we like to hear. It's implementing those promises that will be the difficult part.
He is just a figurehead, as I have stated in another thread regards Obama. He's already reigned in some of his outspoken attitudes and he knows a lot of what he has promised will not come to fruition. He has to get those by the Senate and Congress first and he'll find opposition from his own party on many issues.
I don't think any President is any more or less dangerous than the previous or next one. He still has to work within the diplomatic parameters of an international community. His advisors will make sure he tows the party line to an extent rather than risk alienation from key allies.
In short. What he believes he wants to be best for the USA, has to be within the workings of a sound basis of international trust, diplomacy and sensible economic strategy.

:lol:

Shortly after Donald Trump was sworn into office as the 45th President of the United States, all foreign ambassadors were fired and with no concrete replacement ambassadors lined up.

Mr Trump had demanded that every ambassador in countries all over the world, who had been appointed by former President Barack Obama, were told to leave their offices by midday on 20 January and with no grace period.

To be fair the American Ambassador to Britain knew he was leaving after Trump won last year.

Don't like that dude but what a coward the other guy was. Fight man to man.

Did it on live TV. That doesn't seem cowardly to me. Fuck that Nazi.

I can see why people would enjoy it, but he sucker punched him, didn't even knock him out (probably a vegetarian), then ran away with his face covered. Come on Jockington, no one should be seriously defending that fanny, especially when it probably helps the guy on camera more than it hurts him.

He got the angle of the punch all wrong, should have gone for chin/neck area.

Still, connection was decent. Probably could have said a few words closer up - for effect.

Overall, 6/10 for me.

That's the thing, Spencer will be milking the hell out of that punch to help push his agenda. He will be enjoying his fifteen minutes of fame on the internet, too.

I can understand wanting to take someone like that down but there are smarter ways.

He gets a solid 7 just for the fact he throat punched a nazi. Add a extra point for artistic endeavour and he gets a very good 8 from me.
Well done.

What about these protests, do they need to get a grip or what?

I'm going for what. These protests are right and proper. Seeing Antifa and black bloc on the mooch warms this old man's heart in these cold times.

I just don't understand what they're protesting for. Trump doesn't represent any danger to women or ethnic minorities imo.

Yep imo it is much ado about nothing and it all comes across as being sore losers and frankly a bit petty especially the protests here. If they want to do something about Trump then reorganise properly for a fightback within the 4 year term.

I can understand wanting to take someone like that down but there are smarter ways.

What are the smarter ways? The problem is that the fash are thriving in notoriety. Someone like Piers Morgan, who has bounced around the political spectrum, are currently coming out as fascists. They're doing it not in spite of the opprobrium, but largely because of it. They look at Trump and look at the fame and notoriety and power achieved by Spencer, Milo, Trump etc and they want a piece of that pie.

They need to have their platforms shut down. They need to be resisted when they organise. And they need to be scared to walk the streets. Because otherwise they will keep getting stronger.

Another Brecht poem I like - probably the second I've posted on this thread.

When the fascists kept getting stronger in Germany,
And even workers were joining them in growing masses
We said to ourselves: we fought the wrong way.
And through our red Berlin the Nazis strutted in fours and fives,
In their new uniforms, murdering
Our comrades.
But among the dead were the people of the Reichsbanner as well as people of ours
So we said to the comrades of the SDP:
Are they able to stand by while they murder our comrades?
Fight alongside us in the Anti-Fascist Front!
The answer we got:
We would perhaps fight besides you but our leaders
Keep advising us not to match white terror with red terror.
Every day, we said, our paper warns us against individual acts of terror
But it also warns us every day: we can only win through with
A united Red Front.
Comrades, do get it into your heads, this 'lesser evil' which,
Year after year has been used to keep you completely out of the fight
Will very soon mean having to stomach the Nazis.
But in the factories and all the dole queues,
We saw the workers ready to fight.
In Berlin's Eastern districts Social Democrats called
'Red Front!' in greeting, and even wore the badge
Of the anti-fascist movement. The pubs
Were full to bursting on discussion nights
And from that moment no Nazi
Dared to walk the streets on his own
For the streets at least remain ours
Even if the houses are theirs.

My issue is with attacking the man on camera. All that does is gift wrap a nice piece of propaganda for people like Spencer to spread around the internet and attract would-be white supremacists to the "cause". Look at what this stupid black man/left-winger/whatever did to me, see, I told you they were all violent.

If the urge to punch his lights out is so strong then why not do it off camera? If Spencer and his ilk are thriving on notoriety like you say then doing something that gets Richard Spencer's name all over the internet within minutes of smacking him one is probably the worst thing that you can do besides lopping his head off, shouting Allāhu akbar and making him a martyr.

You know more about this type of thing than me but my first impression is that the way this guy decided to "fight back" is counter-productive.

Yes, I really can't imagine why his racist, misogynistic campaign gave anyone an impression to the contrary.
Except he didn't run a racist & misogynistic campaign that's merely conjecture on your part. What we know to be true is the the other candidate accepted around £20m dollars from Saudi Arabia for her foundation (which is just racking up interest and not actually being used for anything).

Fucking libtards. LGBT & women in Saudi don't matter evidently.
