Funny, I was in Germany last December for three weeks. Berlin, Dresden, Munich, and Garmisch-Partenkirchen. Didn't see any roving gangs of refugees terrorizing the Master Race.

That's cause you weren't following the roving gangs of Neo-Nazis looking for them.

Guess they must have hid when they saw you LOL. They're there for sure; my g/f lives there and says they don't even THINK about going out at night as it's too dangerous!

That reminds me of my first day in Vancouver when I was 18 or 19. I'd taken a coach and the coach terminal was located in the infamous Lower East Side. From the terminal with my suitcase, I could see downtown highrises so figured I could save some money by just walking in that direction. Block by block I was offered sex for money and offered drugs and saw people pased out on the side with their wine bottles. It all screamed 'Welcome to Vancouver!'

After a few blocks, I turned back and paid for the taxi.

There are certain places that are best to avoid whenever possible.

One more block and the Taxi would no longer have been necessary.

If you want to emphasize the bad points about Trump you have to make observations that are factual in real life, don't you think?

I was trying to point out that he wasn't an asshole. Maybe I went too far to make that point. Sorry.

Donald Trump's statement on the Arms Trade Treaty is the final confirmation that he is not the Leader of the Free World, he never has been, and he does not deserve the honour of a State Visit to Britain. He is nothing but a disgrace to his office and a threat to our world order.

Who is Emily Thornberry? What are her credentials? Is credible or full of shit like a lot of the naysayers? I mostly go by my own instincts and they are often correct! Besides being a woman she is a member of the British Parliament and a member of the Labour Party so possibly has an "axe to grind".

TONY PARSONS Donald Trump’s UK visit is to remember our D-Day heroes — spit on him and you spit on the glorious dead

It does not matter a damn what you think about this tango-hued President



Comment
By Tony Parsons, Sun on Sunday Columnist
27th April 2019
The Sun on Sunday

THE President of the United States is coming to our country to honour the memory of the generation of young  Americans  who paid for our freedom with their blood. And an army of soft-bellied, virtue-signalling socialists are getting ready to jeer him to the rafters.

Donald Trump will be in the UK from June 3 to 5. On June 6 he will be in Normandy with other world leaders to mark the 75th anniversary of D-Day, the great turning point in the greatest conflict of human history.


This is not about Trump - we owe a debt that can never be repaid to the generation who paid the ultimate price to keep us free, writes Tony Parsons

When Trump is in the UK he will face a barrage of bile, protest and abuse largely orchestrated by Labour politicians keen to rub their haloes in your face.

Jeremy Corbyn, who has spent a lifetime proudly licking the shoes of terrorists in Hamas, Hezbollah and the IRA, will boycott a state banquet in Trump’s honour because of what he calls the President’s “racist and misogynistic rhetoric”.

Oh, the bitter irony that this grand gesture comes from a Labour leader who has seen virulent Jew-baiting racism infect the Labour Party!

London Mayor Sadiq Khan says Trump represents “the polar opposite of our city’s values of inclusion, diversity and tolerance”.

No — what Trump will be representing in June are the American servicemen who fought by our side against Nazi Germany.

David Lammy calls Trump “deluded, dishonest, xenophobic, narcissistic.” But would Labour’s loon be quite so free to rant and rave if we had lost the war against Fascism?

Emily Thornberry says it “beggars belief” that Trump will get a full state visit in June, although Labour was quite happy to extend exactly that same honour to ex-KGB hardman Vladimir Putin.

This is not hypocrisy. It is pig ignorance. The freedoms we take for granted were paid for by the generation that faced down tyranny more than 70 years ago.

DONALD TRUMP IS HERE TO REMEMBER D-DAY.

Spit on him and you spit on the glorious dead.

Emily Thornberry says Donald Trump's state visit to Britain will be a 'giant waste of taxpayers' money' at PMQs

'SHOW SOME BLOODY RESPECT'

When those preening Labour members wave their tiny fists at Trump, they are   disrespecting the generation of young men who gave everything so Europe could be free.

It is worth remembering the staggering human cost of D-Day. 10,000 Allied dead on D-Day itself, including 6,603 Americans.

Thousands more would die in the battle to break out of Normandy.

I carry no candle for Donald Trump. The irony of seeing him stand to attention on those historic beaches is that Donald had every chance to fight for his country in Vietnam but decided to stay home in Manhattan, doing his hair. But this is not about Trump.

'WE OWE DEBT THAT CAN NEVER BE REPAID'

It does not matter a damn what you think about this tango-hued President. We owe a debt that can never be repaid to the generation who paid the ultimate price to keep us free.

America is our oldest and our most important ally. That relationship is under strain today, with Trump bitterly repeating his claims that British intelligence spied on him to help his rivals during his presidential campaign.

But the special relationship is real and will long outlive the political pygmies who cavort on the world stage today. That bond was forged in the fire of World War Two and the sacrifice of a generation. The American President is coming to Europe to honour the boys who fought on those beaches 75 years ago.

So David Lammy — stop polishing your halo for five minutes and consider all you owe to the greatest generation. Sadiq Khan — refrain from flying your puerile Trump balloon and try to imagine the human cost of D-Day.

Emily Thornberry — please visit the Normandy American Cemetery and Memorial in Colleville-sur-Mer, overlooking Omaha beach, and reflect upon the 9,388 graves of the young Americans who died setting Europe free.

AND SHOW SOME BLOODY RESPECT.

Besides being a woman she is a member of the British Parliament and a member of the Labour Party so possibly has an "axe to grind".

Emily Thornberry is the very unpopular Shadow Foreign Secretary who, despite being a member of the Labour Party - established by Keir Hardie in 1900 to fight for the rights of the working class masses - sneers at ordinary people. Like many member Corbynistas, she's a well-off, middle class snob who knows little about, and cares little about, ordinary folk outside of North London.

She is notorious in Britain for taking a picture of, and posting on Twitter, back in 2014 of a house in Rochester, Kent, with three England flags draped on it and writing "Image from Rochester".

Brexit has shown greatly to the world the low calibre and undemocratic attitude of many British MPs, but things like the Thornberry incident already highlighted the problem a little bit. Here was a British politician sneering at an English flag and thing it strange that somehow should fly it.

UKIP said she had "sneered, and looked down her nose at a white van in Strood with the cross of St George on it".

The resident of the house, Dan Ware, said Ms Thornberry - the MP for Islington South and Finsbury - was a "snob".

"I've not got a clue who she is - but she's a snob," he told the Sun. "We put the flags up for the World Cup (in 2014) and will continue to fly them."

She was in Rochester to campign for a by-election - which Ukip won, with Thornberry's Labour Party, then led by Ed Miliband, coming third.

Spit on the draft dodger who spits on veterans like McCain and you're spitting on the glorious dead?

You Brits are totally ****ed up in the this century, aren't you?

There's nothing ****ed up about respecting the visit to the UK of a President who will be in this country to commemorate D-Day.

What IS ****ed up is thinking it somehow wrong to invite the American president to D-Day commemorations.

I'm a veteran. Having a draft dodging psycho who publically disrespects war veterans at the D-day ceremony is an abomination.

No, it isn't. He's the American president.

Of course, had Trump decided not to go to the D-Day commemorations you and your fellow lefties would be screaming blue murder and saying that he has shown no respect to the D-Day soldiers by not attending.

He can't win either way.
