If the Iraq war was wrong, why didn't Britain and the rest of the world stopped the USA?

[8ball]

Just checked. No freedom of speech in Oz. Not even "freedom of expression" (which we have).

There is an "implied freedom of political communication", it seems.

Fucking banana benders wouldn't be suprised if they put banana on pizza.

[Mr.Bishie]

Do you prefer pizza or pasta mrjoshing?

 

[Mrs Miggins]

Any good pizza places in Queensland?

I don't know but one thing I do know is that Australians like to put beetroot in their burgers.

Isn't that why we sent them over there?

Good people! I heartily approve.

 

[Mrs Miggins]

I remembered someone who claims that what I am saying is hate speech and should never be allowed...

Freedom of speech should allow you to to say anything, regardless of whether it is considered hate speech or not and should be the case, always.

Since I got here, I have been cursed, insulted, humiliated and there was even a thread about killing me, does it bother me? No. You are allowed to say whatever you want to say to me because I respect your freedom of speech and I never want to take that away from you no matter how depraved are the things that you are saying to me.

Freedom of speech doesn't mean that anyone else has to listen, engage with you or agree and it also doesn't mean that people can't take the piss out of your pronouncements.

Freedom of speech doesn't mean that anyone else has to listen, engage with you or agree and it also doesn't mean that people can't take the piss out of your pronouncements.

Freedom of speech also dosen't include the right to say whatever you want on a privately owned website like this one.

 

[mrjoshua]

That's fine! I don't agree with many of the responses here but do I insult them for it? Again, you can believe whatever you want to believe.

and it also doesn't mean that people can't take the piss out of your pronouncements.

That's fine. Laugh at it all you want! I welcome it! Part of freedom of speech.

Beetroot?!? Now you've got me thinking. Beetroot and goat's cheese is a delicious combination that could work very well on pizza.
You have no idea what you've started here

Don't get me wrong, Mrs. M, I like beetroot (but not pickled - Grandpa A used to love pickled beetroot, but he was from Yorkshire), but not in great big chunks. Shredded into a salad (spinach, chard and beetroot with goats cheese is YUM! I had a version in a Spanish restaurant years ago with added orange - that was even more YUM! Never thought about orange and beetroot going together, but it's very tasty) but not on a pizza (that said, I don't eat much pizza these days - I used to live off Domino's (Texas BBQ Feast with spicy wedges) which probably explains why I used to be a size 36)).

I'm completely gluten free grain free these days. Grains are one of the things I know will set off my suspected IBD.

ETA: It wasn't me, it was danny la rouge!

Now that is where I disagree!

 

[JuanTwoThree]

Does freedom of speech allow you to insult my ethnicity while you are in my house?

 

[Struwwelpeter]

Now that is where I disagree!

Why? Are you paying for the bandwidth? Or the pizza?

 

[andysays]

It destabilized the country, led to hundreds of thousands of deaths, created ISIS, caused a mass migration, which has spilled over Europe and are making Europeans very angry and most nations in the world were against it!

But if most nations of the world were against it, why didn't these nations save Iraq and the people there and stopped the US, through force if necessary?

I don't think you'll find anyone here on Urban who thinks the Iraq war was wrong, we're all happy with it, especially in America's role

 

[NoXion]

Now that is where I disagree!

Do you not believe in the concept of private property?

 

[JuanTwoThree]

Does freedom of speech entitle you to say what you like in somebody's house? Or write what you like in their visitor's book?

 

[Pickman's model]

you are insulting us by trying to use shoddy arguments

 

[cupid_stunt]

Now that is where I disagree!

Well you learn soon enough, as you are living on borrowed time, only still here for amusement.

Just give the mods a shout if everyone gets bored with these simplistic troll/stupid threads created by some lying buffoon in Australia.

You were given freedom of speech here but you abused that privilege by firstly refusing to engage with the counterpoints presented to you - probably because you were too thick to comprehend the arguments - and secondly bullshitting about where you were posting from.

So when you lie, you disrespect the community and lose all 'rights' here. You twat.

I'm definitely with you on the not pickled front! I used to hate beetroot but that was because it only ever came to me in pickled form.
Cooked in any other way, it is delicious.

Visitors book? who are you? the Queen of Sheba?

Yes, it would do.

No idea as our government joined in with america on this one, despite the large demonstrations againt it so as a nation we can't get holier than thou about it, but at least we can do that on a personal level.

 

[Mrs Miggins]

Visitors books are not normal.
Visitors books belong only in very high end hotels, stately homes and down at heel B&Bs.
