Ah the Torygraph comments section....home for those who thought Hitler was a bit soft

Innit.

 

[UrbaneFox]

I enjoyed it a lot.

I really don't have the prejudices you lot think. My enjoyment is more winding others up.

I honestly thought the ceremony was excellent. The Olympics has been brilliant so far apart from Mark Cavendish missing out. Did opt for the darts this evening however.

Bloody French trying to crush a man's Olympic dream, presumably still upset London got the olympics instead of Paris

Highlights from the telegraph comments section.

It was a hymn to ethnic minorities and socialism that made me want to vomit. I have flushed more impressive things down my lavatory. I shall now lock myself in the cupboard under the stairs and wait for the secret police to come knocking

So why didn't they try to get more white British volunteers to make the show more representative of Britain?

You never really assimilate racially alien genes. Assimilation of the 20% of foreignness that is in England today would already comprise a genocide - a gene-killing - for us.

For those who were classically educated and proud of our British magnificent culture, music, science, literature etc. Which spread democratic and Christian ideals around the world, which founded many leading democratic countries like the USA, Canada and Australia.
The opening ceremony was but a shadow of what it should have been, and we feel that again our heritage has been ignored by the leftist propaganda machine. As we had a far superior culture, music and dare I say it even a far superior class of citizenry? Before we suffered the bane of liberalism and its ensuing enrichment from the third world which it unilaterally enforced on us

(like the bit about Britain 'founding democracy in the USA' )

 

[8ball]

Genocide? wtf?

That's got to be a new world record for the most wrong you can possibly be in two sentences.

 

[DotCommunist]

these people only say the shit that would get them slapped if they said it in normal company- just the same as BBC comments

 

[souljacker]

I know I shouldn't laugh but:

A spectator at the Olympic rowing events at Eton Dorney Lake was injured when a seat broke in the grandstand.http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-england-19063223

i think that's adidas projecting something about how seriously they view people exploiting their logos and that

 

[teqniq]

Heh, you could be right at that.

 

[savoloysam]

But they are happy to exploit the Olypimcs to sell their horeshit

the bottle, I am glad to say, appears to have been a Heiniken one, a therefore there was no infringement of sponsors rights

 

[Pickman's model]

i am glad that armalite didn't sponsor the olympics

However Dow Chemicals are Olympic Sponsors.

So that's the Olympics, brought to you by the makers of Napam, Agent Orange and other chemical weapons (incl Iraq's) The Bhopal disaster (Dow now own Union Carbide), rupturing breast implants and the Rocky Flats Nuclear Weapons Plant.

 

[Pickman's model]

But you can still purchase Armalite weapons safe in the knowledge you are making an ethically sound choice.

 

[pogofish]

Compared to Dow, Armalite are ethical sweeties!

 

[pogofish]

Then we could start on General Electric (incl subsidiaries Raytheon and General Dynamics) and their range of nuclear and conventional weapons involvement!
